I was doing a little bit of investigating on the kenetrics as well since I was trying to keep money going to a local place. I like the Crispi feed back though. I have a problem with wearing equipment out fast so quality is on my mind. 200g with a merino sock doesn’t sound bad either!

If you are going Merino Socks, look into Darn Tough  :tup:

DT's are the best in the business, hands down.  I even bought some to start swapping out my dress socks, got tired of being the hobo with his toe through the hole in the TSA line.

I can literally go 300-500 miles before I wear a hole and then get a new pair in the mail.

I have one light pair for the gym and early season, the light hikers for Sept - Oct and two thicker pairs for November & December.

You can get Crispi Wild Rock GTX in 400 or 800 insulated.  I haven't really tried mine in super cold yet (400), but they sure are comfortable.

I've only tried a couple pairs of darn tough but I like the farm to feet socks I have better.

Crispi makes a boot called the Wild Rock in 800. I‘ be been breaking them in this season here blacktail hunting in preparation for Montana next week. I wore 200 gram Nevada’s last year in MT during single digit temps and froze. I’m hoping these will do the trick. So far super comfy and have kept my feet warm while sitting 9 hours straight in 28-40* temps. They come at a pretty penny tho. I got them from Black Ovis.

Also a 400g option with more sizes

D-rock- no I have not heard of them. You a fan?

I have tried to darn tough Socks for general hiking/backpacking. Honestly haven’t thought about them for hunting but I do like them.

Wolf dog- thanks for the tips because that’s what I was looking at (200g and good socks) and I don’t want to be miserable in those similar temps. I might just bite the bullet and get the 800 g. I don’t want to spend that kind of money and be needing better/more boot!
