Have had these for a couple of years and like them. Durable with none of my socks getting wear spots at the heels. Nice and soft, a very nice feel. They have reinforcement in the usual places and across the instep.



I use these in my lighter hiking boots and the expedition weight in my heavier boots.

These are comparable in quality and comfort to Smartwools and are a little cheaper! I bought several pairs last year and have worn them many times. Time will tell if they hold up as long as Smartwools do.
