SOCKS
-
I'm in Steamboat Springs, Colorado and they have smartwool socks out the wahzoo here. It was nice to see them in person…
-
Got a few more pairs.

Love smart wool, but also really love darn tough and point6. The non 100% wool ones are super robust, can be washed and dryed normal and have compression in various intuitively smart places on the sock to help with fatigue/comfort.
Eddie bower's 'first ascent' brand uses point6 rebranded and can be found on sale for under $7 a pop–Sierra Trading is a good resource.

Good move man. Let dry feet prevail. Make sure u don’t use ANY fabric softener on the wool socks. Air dry is preferable too. Although I can put smartwools in the dryer… without a dryer sheet.

Thanks. I never use fabric softener on anything. I like my clothes soft without chemicals. That's why I am so fond of Iron Heart.

their warranty is the best. i returned a pair that developed a hole in the toebox and they promptly credited me the retail cost.
which reminds me I should use it sooner than later

Same. I've got those Chups in Grey and Blue.

I should look into Darn Tough. My pairs of Anonymousism and Studio D'artisan socks already have holes in them, so I won't be buying from them anymore ???

Darn tough, I rolled the page

thanks bud ^

Darn nice.

Last one.

How tough are Darn Tough socks? The single issue I have with socks is that they invariably develop toe holes. I've had to throw out several pairs as a result and it drives me nuts.
