Been wearing Gold Toe Socks since I can remember. Something fr every occasion without compromising comfort. I also like different knit socks with lots of color as a nice change from White or Black.

lol…I read the title and thought, oh well, might just post Gold Toe...and no surprise - Lando loves them , too...we're like twins ...

[LandoCal126 0]

Nice! Good to know we are even more similar than we thought before. You have impeccable taste my friend…

[Beatle]

ditto …..

Oh shite… i think the Gold Toe may be what i've been looking for... affordable too at first glance. Which model do you guys wear? It's starting to get hot in San Diego already... (if you can call 85 hot haha) so i don't want anything that are gonna make me sweat. Like what's the diff between the cotton and casual crew?

**Man i love this forum... posting a question like this anywhere else would prob just result in tons-o-flame. haha

I wear Falke socks and do find them very nice. The quality is very good, the comfort is too. Overall they have a decent amount of different styles and materials and I really like them. The price is fair.

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

[hectic]

I have also bought Falke - nice brand.

Basket full of crazy coloured ancle socks. I'm gonna invest in nice, long socks when I'm in Italy again next spring, cause ya can't wear ancle socks in boots  :-

now then, now then guyz n galz

I always wear woolen socks - all through the year (just like Stever?)

I think these are about the best I've ever had for boots  - very comfy, very toasty

but I really like the thorlo sport sock for general casual, and smartwool sock for my hillwaking

I was just thinking how there should be a sock thread on the forum, and look what just popped up.  I agree that gold toe makes a great affordable sock but I find the durability of them not so great.  IMO Smartwool makes the best socks you can put your feet into, Keen makes a very close second.  Both offer different weights for whatever climate/season you find yourself in.

I wear Smartwool pretty much exclusively. They're expensive, but they last and feel awesome.

[Geo]

sounds like we're all on the smartwool bus

you need to try out the Scott Nichols tho' - the ones in the pic are merino and alpaca mix, not to heavy - look great with trickers/grenson/church's stylee

[riffblaster general]

nothing special but i like American Apparel socks.  i usually go with the knee length ones.    in my experience AA socks don't become quitters as quickly as others.  they arent very thick though.

I want some. Wool tabi socks from kapital

I've been wearing the Smartwool ones as well, excellent quality.  I like Bridgedale socks as well, comfy and they wear well.
