Socks

[CAM38]

Seems like I always buy whatever pack is on sale at cabelas, so I have a ton of pairs and like none of them for hunting.  I'd like to get something lightweight for scouting/early season and a little heavier for the late season.  What are you guys wearing?

[jackelope]

I wear the same kind of socks all the time when hiking or hunting regardless of season.

I have heard good things about the Darn Tough brand too.

I got my first pair of darn tough awhile back and love them and they are my go to now.  Spendy but worth it in my mind.

I buy the wool socks party pack from costco. I have had this last pack 3 years with no problems at all.

The merino socks from Costco are good too.

Smart wool for me they have worked great and last quite awhile the Costco socks feel like smart wool socks and are just as comfortable

X2 Darn Tough socks

I got my first pair a year ago and they are worth the money, can wear them no matter if its warm or cold and never worry about a hole in a sock again because they will replace them free of charge

Checked out the Darn Toughs, they look sweet, the warranty is impressive, I don't mind spending extra for something with a warranty like that.

This thread made me go order some more darn toughs, if your military or a first responder check out govx.com they have them cheaper and the tactical ones

I switched to Lorpen a few years back.  Can't say I have ever been happier with socks.  Since what I like usually means it will be discontinued in another year I bought a lifetime supply - Lightweight, medium weight and primaloft winter weight.

  best socks ive worn

i also use toe liners as well

They wear out rather fast, but I like to combine the warmer weather Lorpens with silk liners.  Really cuts down on hot spots, blisters and damp feet.  Better than any other liner material I have found.  I can't remember for sure but I think my last ones were made by Terramar.  For cold weather - Lorpen Merino liners are the absolute Champion of cold weather sock liners!!!

[CAM38]

Well, gotta say I've never worn liners, do they go inside or outside of your sock? What is the benefit?
