SOCKS

[Seul]

I wear my socks with boots so there's no vis… All I want is quality, something that lasts... The TFA socks deteriorated much too quickly to justify the price. So let's see how these 2.9 € Uniqlo socks hold up ey

I'm still on the hunt for the perfect socks… Agree with seul, I think I mainly want something comfortable and durable now. Tfa is wack, wish I didn't have so many

6am and I am talking to you about socks? I need another hobby Seriously, in that case I would likely just buy decent boot socks(hello Wigwam)

Uniqlo ftw !! Best bang for buck ratio going imo.

You've got me x-posting (bitch)…

@Finn666:

"testing" these suckers today…first impression: really nice, holding up pretty well and feeling comfy from the start!

I got those in the opposite colourway - blue with orange stripes - and wish i had those ones too. They're standing up really well so far. On the £25 argument, I got a pair of Superior Labour socks for that much. Worn them a lot less than the Anonymous-Ism pair and they've developed holes already. I have no problem paying for quality goods, but I expect the quality to match the price.

wigwam socks have served me well.  Made in the US and under $15 a pair for even their 'fancier' cool wool ones.

Anyone tried stance socks?

@natehate:

Anyone tried stance socks?

Yes. Pretty much the only socks i wear.  Even in uniform…

Just bought a stack of Icebreaker socks that were on sale.  The merino blend is fantastic to wear and surprisingly durable too.

There is a lady out of the UK that makes some pretty cool Merino wool socks….

I guess she makes them on the really old sock machines that are hand cranked.
Sort of like these:

These things almost look like primitive loop wheel machines…

Here is her shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/footfetishsocks?section_id=14739217&page=1 (Don’t mind the name…...)

OK with my Darn Tough socks.

[NorthernVictory]

Darn Tough socks or nothing.

Picked up some smartwool socks, going on reviews they were meant to be really good but I find them pretty average (falling down constantly) Looking for some nice thick socks with a flat toe seam, any recommendations?

[mclaincausey]

Mine never fall. Which ones did you get?

[derivative666]

I love Smartwool also. I use them for basically everything hiking, skiing, running and in the office. They are nothing fancy like Anonymous ism but, as far as comfort nothing else compares.

I went for the hike mediums, maybe a hot wash to tighten them is in order.
