        such a clever brand name, "darn" tough…

          I'm a little disappointed in my socks. My sunny sports, while looking amazing, have essentially all started falling apart near the heel… I think I'm going to have to be on the lookout for less fashion-forward socks and more robust ones. I'm was just looking into Maggie's, you guys approve?

          Also, maybe tmi,  but I also have problems with my feet getting unnecessarily sweaty.... Suggestions???

            What shoes do you wear?  To my mind, the single biggest contributor to sweaty feet is the type of shoes you wear.  In my case, I only have to see a pair of converse and my feet start pumping out moisture…..

              I heartily recommend cotton socks if your feet sweat. I've said it many times here, but if you need socks that aren't exposed (like boot socks) the plain white Red Wing socks are exemplary. Cotton with plenty of elastic.

              If the dogs are too sweaty for cotton, perhaps a synthetic such as coolmax is your next move. By all means avoid merino, even Smartwool (and I say this as a person who thinks Smartwool makes the best socks on the market), if your feet are excessively sweaty.

              Think it, be it.

                Maybe g is right. Thing is I only notice my feet sweat after I've been walking around for a while (but not super long by any means…) in general when I'm at home my feet aren't sweaty at all. I pretty much only wear sneakers, but I would think that those would be better for sweat than say boots...

                  GMB - wrong.  Wear a decent pair of boots and you will be amazed.  All that rubber right under your foot in sneakers is a recipe for shit….

                    ^ Truth, I wore nothing but sneakers up to about 4 years ago and I suffered from EXTREMELY sweaty feet, since dipping my pods into Whites the problem has totally gone.

                      Backed; I've never had especially sweaty feet but wearing wool and sneakers I can get there.  Boots not so much.

                        Forgot to post these, got them a couple months ago. Pricey but beautiful, I think they have a few on sale atm though. Nice packaging too.

                              Beautiful socks ArnoldLayne! Somehow I have this lurking suspicion that you actually took these socks from some poor girls washing ling though. It’s not that they don’t look manly enough, but the handle… 😃

                                    As I said before, price be damned, nothing is too much to achieve perfection

                                            Blue dockers socks…super comfy...inexpensive, and they match in color to blue denim

                                            Fucking drives me nuts when peoples socks don't match with their pants

                                            This is a sartorial rule that I've never heard. I don't like matching socks to pants, without that contrast it looks goofy to me. Socks should coordinate with pants, but IMO shouldn't match.

                                            Think it, be it.
