      No doubt.  If their socks are half as good as their henleys they must be awesome.

        I didn't think of Merz. I have been meaning to look in to there gear though. Might leave two feet on the shelf then.

              merino just cause it wicks sweeat & moisture in general & retains heat.  oh & merino cause when wet it tends to retain heat, nothing like wearing cold wet cotton socks.  merino wool sucks when wet, like most fabrics to be honest, but not as much as cotton.  oh & merino is just kind of light & airy without feeling like you are wearing those thin dress socks.

              good sock related question

                    To be honest, I've been a bit disappointed with the Two Feet Ahead socks.  Always sagging.

                    have 3 pairs so far and totally have to agree with you on this one…"ok" when wearing boots but with "normal" gear they´re getting on my nerves pretty fast!

                      I have many, many pairs of TFA and I like them however, they do not hold a candle to SmartWool.

                                Very interesting thread. I cycle in an Aussie brand; Bonds, which I then wear as my work socks all day. $10/pair. They're pretty decent quality holding up cycling and office wear for over a year. Boots tear them to shreds…

                                    I wear Holeproof all day socks, for almost all duties. Best socks I've used, and I've tried many dozen..

                                    Probably only avail in Aus though.

                                      If you want local hookups I'm just a PM away. Their quality doesn't seem to have dropped when they moved off-shore, which is something good 🙂

                                        I'm really tempted by Gammarelli socks, as worn by the Pope. They go up to a size UK 13 / US 14 / EU 48, which is good for those of us with larger than average feet.

                                        (OK, the Pope's are white, but purple is better. :D)

                                          I can't speak to their socks, but I've noticed a decline in the quality of their underwear since they moved production offshore.  Their old undies lasted me for years, the new ones are thinner and seem to lose their elasticity a lot quicker.
