Costco socks for me


 :yeah: Costco Merino Wool , 3 or 4 pack for 11$ , they're darn tough and warm, no stink, no stretch
I liked the old style. The new ones not so much. The old ones did wear out really fast but at the their price I couldn't complain. Just bought a lot :chuckle:

darn tough are pricey, but they claim theyll replace them if you wear em out
I can buy a 2 year supply of costco socks for the same price as 1 DT pair.
one pair of dt will also outlast a 2 year supply of Costco socks

A hard rode sock is one of those things that should only last so long to allow regular replacing.
Just tend your own and live.

Buy once cry once?  All I know is I just ordered two more pair of DTs to use for work while traveling.  I just got back from a trip to San Diego where I rucked them in and out of the ocean all week up to 7 miles a day on the same pair without washing.  They are amazingly tough and treat me well.  I finally did wear a hole in the heel of another pair and would bet it took over 300 miles.

You can literally buy a pair and not need to pay to replace them forever.  If you want to put miles on something, they are a bargain.  If you only need to use them for a few miles once a year, there may be more cost effective options.

Georgia boot makes some decent ones that won’t break the bank. I’m in my boots 8 plus hours a day and no complaints.
