Wool socks

[triple_duece]

I think you are missing the boat. If you sweat a lot, the trick is to use a boot drier on your boot/shoes. It’s your footwear that’s making your shit stink. Wool won’t hold moisture so where do you think the smell is coming from? Wear new boots or shoes without any socks and see how fast they stink. A boot drier is the shit.

About time I try these for everyday use I suppose....

Who’s missing what boat? I have a boot drier here at the house that hasn’t been unplugged in years and one I travel with in my work bag. The boot drier isn’t the investment here, those are cheap and should be in use regardless of the type of sock.

You sure are sensitive about your stinking feet [emoji23]

I wear the hell out of my wool socks during gun season and the walleye run. A few days in a row is the norm for me. I never gave it a thought for year round

Anyone try the light weights? I have mid weights but never ordered any light weights thinking they’d be like dress socks.

Also I was reading about care and it says you can dry them.

Dave... Was in Walmart today and saw these socks for $2.00 a package 3 pair to a pack... Figured what the hell, bought 12 packs... Come Nov. I'll give everyone a pack that's hunting in Illinois... Even if they last a few wearings I got my money's worth....

Nice find Fletch, I'll have to swing by my local WM and see if they have the same deal.

This conversation came up a few times this weekend. I still have no idea where she found any cotton socks? Should all be in the trash now. Lol. Not sure how I ever wore them.

I’ve been wearing the smart wool socks ever since seeing this thread. I’d never go back to cotton.

I wear SmartWool on a daily basis and love them for the day job as well as on runs for the occasional structure fire. FirstLite makes some really nice merino socks too that I wear for hunting and steelhead fishing in the winter/ spring and have been pretty impressed with them.

I have various styles and weights of Smartwool socks that I pretty much only wear for hunting and stuff, but I bought 6 pairs of these light Phd crew socks that I just wear for work and around the house. I wear them everyday for work, and most of the time otherwise when I'm not hunting or dealing with bitter cold, and these look and feel like they are brand new being a year old or so now. these fuckers might out live me. money spent on good socks and shoes is some of the best money you can spend. my feet never stink. these are even nice enough to wear with dress shoes. great socks.

Anyone that has a Costco membership check out their selection. Buddy found 80% merino socks for less than $20 for 6 pairs last year. Not sure if they still have them but worth a look.

It was @Redneckfucker's drunk ass. Day 3 on those socks and they spent all of Day 1 in rubber boots. No smell and not crusty. They were damp on the outside, dry next to the skin. He was mesmerized
