      @gaseousclay they have many different models, some are thin, some are thicker. The have running and hiking socks as well. I buy them wen they are on sale and have different kinds. They all hold up good and fit well and comfy. I wouldn't wear the thinner ones with boots.

      @neph93 Damn right haha - But the decoration is some kind of photo print what looks pretty odd and not like good quality when stretched. Can't really recommend them - but these are made for fun so i guess it's acceptable and they're comfy though.

        I understand your point but the big picture is, you have Slayer socks  😎

            So what's the verdict on your socks? I like my alpaca hat a lot but i've found that it's not ideal when the temps hit 0 because of the way it's knit. It's plenty warm though in 20-30 degree temps

              First time wearing them (they got lost in a moving box for a while).  So far, I'd say they're decent.  They're thin, since they're dress socks, and they don't stay up, but socks never do on me unless they're over the calf length.  But they're comfortable and they don't have bulky toe seams, which is good.  I'll need to get in several more wears before I can give more than initial impressions.

              I have similar thoughts about the beanie as you do.  The loose knit isn't perfect for really cold temperatures, and I bet it would suck in a strong wind, but since I never experience anything below freezing, it's fine for me.  It itches more than I'd like, so I'm a bit disappointed about that.  Most people probably wouldn't notice it, but being bald means a lot more skin surface area, so I'm especially sensitive to that aspect.

                My beanie is itchy too. Fits a little bigger than i'd like as well but it works.

                  Did anybody else love MUJI recycled yarn socks? They were so fucking cheap, comfy, and overall good. Only gripe was that they were a little short, but I dealt with it.

                  Now it seems they're gone. If you too are mourning this loss, have you found an alternative?

                              Asked this myself a while ago. Won’t be one I’m afraid. Demand isn’t high enough. Shame as they are brilliant.

                                Really! That’s way bad news. They are the perfect thickness. They are the perfect height. They don’t lose shape. They are durable. I can’t find anything close.

                                Anyone want to make a suggestion for a thick, tall, durable sock?

                                  Bought a few versions of taller Wigwam socks. In general I like the brand and find their product to be durable. They make good hiking socks. The above the calf socks are….. ok. Decent weight. Too stretchy. Seems are more noticeable than IH. Predict they will stretch out of shape relatively quickly. Also the size range has them a little big with the heel toward the achilles. Guess I’m probably looking for things to complain about. The IH socks just REALLY worked for me  😞

                                    In too mourn the loss of the IH Engineer sock. I have about five pairs of them and maybe be more of the standard length. I also feel they fit me well, are very hard wearing and do a great job of wicking moisture.

                                    I find the engineer only really necessary when I’m wearing 10-11” boots, with very stiff leather or a lining. My 11” burlap’s are soft enough in the shaft to get away with the work boot version. I’ll be wearing the engineer socks economically from here on in.

                                          Yessir, I picked up a couple of pairs straight away and will probably add some more to my next order. But thanks for looking out!
