I have the same pair gb, I always wear long socks with them for the same reason you have. Once they break in
you'll be even happier with them.

I'm not sure, that thread is pretty heavy…I wear my Boss boots more than my harness boots.
My Bosses are broken in and the stitching is still sharp so I'd invest in long socks to save your shins for now
at least. Maybe down the line your harness boots will break in better than mine and you'll be able to lower
your socks.Try rubbing a little beeswax on the stitching, helps a bit.

Just as a basic rule, one should always wear socks that reach above the boot tops.

I saw a pair of WESCOS in the latest edition of Heritage Post, and I really loved them. How do these price/quality compare with White's and Viberg's?

Price depends on what u want 400-1000. Wescos aren't fashion boots. They are tanks. They are the most rugged and durable engineer boots u can buy

I dont have to in my cowboy boots

My Boss boots were deadly on my shins for the first year or so. I bought tech sox http://www.techsox.com and they were the only socks that I found that would stay up all day. Now my boots are so soft that it doesn't matter which socks I choose. I actually prefer my shorter smartwool socks now. They'll soften up, don't worry!

Trying to be as objective as poss. I would say that Wesco and Whites are about the same, Viberg are next level…..

Bro, have a look at ski socks like these, http://www.smartwool.com/mens/on-snow/phd-ski-medium-169081.html they have padded shins for ski-boots.
