Gear review Smartwool Socks

Postby >>>---WW----> » 01 07, 2019 •  [Post 1]

My feet sweat a lot. I have always worn cotton socks. And there have been times I have noticed that they feel like they stick to the bottom of my feet from perspiration. After trying Smartwool Socks that has NEVER happened. plus the fact that they just feel a little bit warmer and toaster on my feet. I like that!
So for Christmas, my wife gave me some Armour All socks. I have know idea what they are made of. However, after wearing them several times, I found that they may be a little better than the cotton ones but not even nearly close to the comfort of Smartwool.

My hunting buddy has a few pairs of these and swears by them.

No info on smartwool. I found Lorpen 1st and never looked any farther. I have 6 pr, 3 different weights. Durable, comfortable merino blends. Not just for hunting.

I have some Smart Wool socks and I like them. My favorite socks, though, are Darn Tough socks. Made in Vermont and guaranteed for life. Thant's all that I buy now.
