      I have left all my bonds at home, love there singlets and raglan's. cant beat a bluey! shame they are made all offshore now.

      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.

                Anybody ever tried Darn Tough socks? MikeC I'm looking at you…

                yes I recently got a short pair for running and been sampling them, they're well made and comfy, maybe slightly warm for running this time of year but I'm going to wear them for a half marathon in a few weeks and see how I like them then, love the guarantee for life, I will buy more. I think they make a lighter weight pair than the ones I have

                  Ok most brands we have been talking about have a few different lines of socks, eg lifestyle, hiking, hunting & running. What do people recommend in work boots? I am guessing hiking as lifestyle ones could be a bit thin.

                        I just ordered some smartwool socks. I usually wear Fox River socks but decided to try out some smartwool this fall. I got three pairs of the medium hikers and two pairs of light hikers. Psyched to try them out!

                            Not sure if anyone else here likes good socks but I love these socks. 80% merino wool.Yes they are womens but they have packs of 3 with colors that work for a guy. Black, grey, grey striped. 9.99 for a 3 pack. That is the cheapest merino wool sock I have found. I love merino wool. Cool in summer and warm in winter. Very comfortable.
                            I go the largest size and they fit me great. I figured I would return them if they were too small.
                            I am a measured 9 1/2. I would think they would fit 10 and maybe larger.

                            I have the mens merino trail socks also but they are a thicker boot sock. The womans are a perfect everyday sock.
                            I know they usually only carry the merino socks in the fall. I would get them now.

                                  Been very impressed with the Red Wings Arctic work socks ( Thanks Clint D for sorting these out for me ).  Warm comfortable and cushioned, great in a work boot.  I am using these most days while at work on the rig and they get hammered.  They stand up very well to hot washing ( offshore laundries are not well known for using careful washing cycles )

                                  For dress shoes I have been using some very nice thin socks from a traditional Italian brand called Sozzi Calze.  Some of the stripe designs are interesting.
