I’m guessing you came here to ask given that there‘s a group of posters who don’t use socks on their feet.***

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?

Do you know which style you have?

Men's Hiker Boot Midweight Hiking Sock is my go to, but I got some of their over the calf lightweight socks and they are great for cowboy boots in the summer. They keep your feet cooler than any other sock I have tried. The midweight socks are thick on the bottom and thin on the top, which is nice.

Over the past five years or so I have switched all my socks out to at least 50% wool socks even during the summer.

I'm not overly fond of darn tough, some of them are extremely tight over my arch. I would probably say smartwool targeted cushion have been my favorite every day socks with lace up boots. For slip on western boots I like snow sport compression socks. They are tall and never slide down with a small amount of cushion.

Bombas are the best socks I’ve ever owned. They last for years and if you have holes or damage to them they’ll send you a new pair.

Duluth Trading if you can catch a 30% or a 50% off. ive gotten to the age that that’s all I ask for at Christmas or birthdays. Socks and underwear are second to none.
Duluth's "unmentionables" are good too, although expensive.

Diabetic long socks, gray color. I am not diabetic, but they're very stretchy and do not rub anywhere on my shoe. They do a great job covering what is left of my right foot and my left foot. It's funny that I have now gotten into a habit of always wearing socks. I never had a problem with it getting cold until recently. Someday, I will be brave and show you what is left on the right side, which we call a foot.

Imma throw a curveball at this. I don’t wear them, but my boy does and they are the Skechers No-Show socks. I’ve washed them countless times and they haven’t worn out in the slightest. I honestly don’t know how, but they haven’t.

I bought some years ago off of Amazon marketed as "bamboo". I absolutely love them, but they are no longer available and all mine have holes in them.

I started wearing Bombas compression socks about 3 years ago hoping that it would help with foot numbness issues caused by some medication that I used to have to take. It took a while but after 3 years the numbness is almost completely gone. When I first started wearing them I didn’t really like the feel of the compression but after I got used to them I wouldn’t want to wear anything else.
