SOCKS

[SpaceGnome]

i wear nothing but Icebreaker merino wool socks.  Occasionally Ill wear a gold toe with sneakers, but cotton is the worst fiber for socks, and i generally regret wearing the gold toes about 1 hour into wearing them.

I back sunny sports, super solid socks with awesome patterns.

[scroogen]

they look tempting but do they do worldwide shipping? went to their site for awhile but i got lost halfway through.. 

I agree the website is a little confusing… actually you can't even buy the socks on their site, but they redirect you.

Here are a few of the sites that offer international shipping (from darn tough website)

I have Icebreaker ski socks and they’re wonderful, must investigate regular socks.

SmartWool's  are always a safe bet, for something alittle more eye-catching I have to credit bodega for putting me on: Chup http://shop.bdgastore.com/collections/chup + &Life Sox http://shop.bdgastore.com/collections/life-sox

I'm not sure! I think they're free sized and I'm only a US7.. But they fit well, they look like they have a capability to stretch? It says they'll fit up to 10 if I'm not mistaken

I need some socks that will stay up when wearing boots all day, suggestions?

[joesaintjohn]

A buddy of mine that rides bulls professionally let me in on a little secret for cowboy boots. He buys nice soccer socks because they go way up and stay up.

[bagley920]

Never thought about that but great idea

[joesaintjohn]

It's what I wear, Nike dri-fit. There's a left and right and they are weirdly comfortable.

I wear Gold Toe over the calf socks.  Pretty good quality and they stay up.
