For years I've felt that every time I find socks I like when I go shopping they'll sell out and be out of production. Then I had 3-4 pairs of random socks that I liked. I decided to try these socks a few years ago and I really liked them. Luckily when I came back for more they were still available. I ordered a few more packs and I finally have about a dozen pairs of amazing socks! I work outside and they are breathable enough not to absorb sweat in summer but thick enough to keep you warm in winter. At my size 11, they are high enough to protect my ankles from the mid-cut hiking boots I wear to work. I have enough at the moment but if I lose too much from washing (or my wife) I will definitely be back for more.
