I work on my feet almost every day, so I wear through socks like nobody’s business. Jogging is one of my main forms of physical activity, and that certainly does not help my socks last either. Around the house I’m always wearing socks. I need a new pack of socks nearly once a month just to keep up. Prices are going up too, and I don’t want to buy socks like this anymore.

I received some wool socks for my birthday that lasted notably longer than cotton socks, but I tore through these too in a few weeks. Finally, after wearing through another pack of ten, I decided to try some purpose-built work crew socks.

Here you might expect me to write about how much better these socks are, but I don’t know yet. I hope they will last longer.

    These types of socks won’t wear out in a couple of weeks. I guarantee it.

      Agreed! Warm when cold. Cool when hot. I love them But … snow sticks to the soles :( (5…10 cm is no exception)
