Need suggestions for some quality socks

Quarter length athletic socks, who makes a quality product?

 

[billanole]

Darn Tough from Vermont and Wigwam (also made in the states) both have good quality long lasting socks. Available at Outdoor Gear Shops...

I like the And1 performance basketball socks myself, good compression on the arches but light and airy.

hey I'm old, if they are going to get me underwear and socks I at least want them to be decent lol

I'm switching over to all Darn Tough. They're not cheap, but they replace any pair for any reason and they're great quality.

High end conversation with practical implications... we are getting up in years.

We keep proving @DFSNOLE wrong just when he thinks we've reached the end of quality thread ideas.

I typically wear under armour athletic socks. I like them.

Gold toe blue socks go best with tan sandals

 

[West Duval Nole]

Injinji for proper toe splay and it has a right and left sock. You will have to figure out which is which.

Swiftwick socks

I would go for the ones with “ no holes”, unless your religious then get the Holy ones!

Great thread but seriously as a guy who has walked a lot of miles good socks and underwear (except when I went commando) are really important. As far as socks it really depends on the shoe. Working out UA ankle socks, wearing boots UA makes a good one, so does darn tough (lots of young guys I mentored wore them in ranger school). I buy a certain underwear made by Soffe that I am not sure is sold commercially and they are fantastic. Regardless of what sock you choose airing your feet, walking barefoot when possible and wearing flip flops is just as important as socks. "Take care of your feet they take you to and from the fight"

and wearing flip flops is just as important

Flip flops are terrible for your feet.

Gotta take care of your dawgs.

How? I wear them almost everyday and the only time I have problems with my feet are after running, which by switching to jogging barefoot has totally eliminated that.
