Ive been wearing the same old black Champion socks from Marshall’s for a few years now. Looking at getting something actually good for daily use to work. What does the SixPack board got to suggest?

I wear mostly Carhartt socks. They’re all super soft and I have some that are for cold weather that keep my feet nice and warm.

Now this feels like a dad discussion. I’ve actually been thinking about it lately.
A couple of years ago my father in law gave me some Weatherproof brand socks. Nothing fancy, but a thicker sock for the winter. I loved those socks. They have all bitten the dust so I asked for and received some new ones for Christmas. They are, sadly, not the same at all. They look the same but they’re a little stiffer, maybe a little thicker. Just plain not as comfortable.
These have the look of wool socks, may have a portion of wool but it’s definitely a blend of some sort.
I wear just basic athletic socks most of the year, but when it gets cold I like having a winter sock.

What socks do you wear for boots. my socks always slides down and hate it.
As previously mentioned get some darn tough over the calf socks. For temps 40 and up I wear the T30-06 model. For cold weather I wear knee high heavyweight hunting socks. For the gym and everyday wear I use their low cut socks.

Bombas and balega. Expensive but incredibly comfortable and soft. If you are on your feet alot, do not discredit how much difference a quality sock can make.

I don’t wear socks. When I do for golf or church I wear Reebok low cut or Asics.

Thorlos Maximum Cushion. If you play a sport that requires a lot of movement, they cannot be beat.

When you find some clothing you really like such as socks, underwear, sweat pants, jeans, etc. buy yourself some more and put it up. I have had so many clothes that I really liked and wore until they got threadbare. Then I would replace it with the same style and brand a few years later and they changed something and it was just cheaper.

Smartwool, Icebreaker, or Fox River.Thin and wool over the calf for winter, thin and wool ankles for summer, thin and wool crews for hunting/hiking. I'd buy a thin wool condom for my dinger if they made one.

Gold toes over the calf in black for my dancing boots. I can barely walk on smooth carpet as it is in those old calfskin Lucchese's with the leather soles. If I had wool socks on it would be like the world's fattest newborn giraffe trying to walk.
