Review on 🧦 High-Performance Merino Wool Socks for Active Athletes – Moisture-Wicking, Low-Cut Cushioned Running Socks for Men, Women, and Youth by Jamie Behm

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Bursitis? corns? neuropathy? Aching or sweaty feet? THIS WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!

If you don't like the thickness of your merino wool hiking socks, don't buy them! If you love the feeling of having your feet surrounded by a cloud then BUY IT. These are now my other favorite Merino wool socks (and pink is great for the gym!). Another favorite of mine is the thick merino wool from Zensah (available at Revain). I ditched merino wool fashion brands a long time ago because merino fabrics aren't very durable (hence the need to hand wash merino sweaters and their tendency to pill) and they make them so thin. Merino fashion brands are [expensive and] feel great, but they lick holes too quickly at this price point. In my experience, only thick merino wool lasts in the long run. I suffer from bursitis and hammer toe and this saved my life! No more blisters! Also, I have fairly severe neuropathy in one leg due to nerve injury that requires pain relief; These socks have helped reduce this and I need less medication because of them. These issues also cause holes to form quickly and these socks now last over a year. I'm only now seeing thin patches over my bursitis. So I decided to write a review while shopping for socks today. Another mention I wanted to make is that I have sweaty feet and don't have foot odor with it. Due to neuropathy I have to wear socks 24/7 and can wear them for literally 3 days before changing them [usually I have to remember that 2-3 days have passed]; Without merino my feet stink in a day. So if you say you don't have merino wool, you're wrong! I can confirm! In addition, they have the undeniable softness of merino wool. I love these - finally cute high quality socks that I can afford!
