When it rains my feet get wet. I find that Smartwool socks take much longer to dry than some of the others. Otherwise very comfortable but would not take then on anything longer than a day hike.

Sounds like you need a better waterproof shoe! Thanks for sharing your experience though - like I said, I never actually bought Smartwool because I did not like their website/ordering experience.

I left Bombas for Darn Tough because Darn Tough is made in USA. Bombas are made in Chjna. Darn Tough has a sock that the entire profit goes to a Vermont food pantry. Their customer service is top notch.

Do you use merino wool ,wut sock you use
@truly3743 Жыл бұрын
I’m going to switch to darn tough especially if they are made in America. Bombas has really disappointed me. Nothing but holes in the toes in all my socks. It’s great they give a sock away to the needy for each sold but come on you can’t charge what your charging for some cheap made and cheapest material socks made in China!!

Have tried so many different “cheap” and not-so-cheap socks in my life. I’m currently looking for really good running, working out, camping/hiking, and sort of everyday socks for myself and my gf. I really like Darn Tough hiking socks (that extra padding and warranty!!), and your review makes me really want to try out Bombas and Icebreakers. Thanks for a nice, to-the-point, and thorough review.

Haha thank you!! I actually just use water! Rinse my face in the morning, rinse at night - just with water in the sink. I never put soap or anything on it. I'll occasionally put a very light/all natural lotion (earth mama) on it in the winter when it feels really dry (like after a shower).

The one thing about Bombas socks is that they do tend to shrink a bit if you wash/dry often with medium to high heat. I learned that I need to buy a size up. But I still have Bombas socks from 5 years ago and they still look and feel great.
@thewellnessfamily2 жыл бұрын
Yes good point! I normally dry on low heat and haven't noticed much shrinkage in my socks, but I have found the toddler socks do seem to get smaller (unless my kid's feet are just growing super fast haha).

We love the bombas wool socks too but they are thread bare in the heel in less than a year :(

Oh bummer! Have you found a sock you like better? So far I’ve had them 6 months and they are in great shape but I’ll see how they look in another 6 months

i have been wearing low socks my whole life but i have never had a wool ankle sock before. usually i wear no show socks with a light breathable fabric. might try some of these for winter!

Thanks for the review. I’m shopping for good camping/trekking/hunting socks and this helped. Also made me think about just swapping out all my socks but in time because that would cost a small fortune 😂

Yes! I'm slowly swapping mine out as my old ones get holes.

Are the Bombas the "running" or "performance" versions of the socks?

No wonder I keep getting holes in the toes of all my Bombas low rise socks they are made in China!! Time to switch to an American made company 🇺🇸

Thanks for the video, very well done. I do have a question...when I go to the Bombas page and look for the Tri Blocks ankle socks the only ones it brings up are made of 76% cotton, not wool. They look like the ones you showed but no wool. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place?

I use the icebreaker ski+ light and medium in snowy cold winter here, happy with them. A local store has huge discounts atm so I ordered some of their Multisport Light Micro, Hike UL Liner, Hike+ light and medium for the summer, hope they will be as good as the ski+. How are your icebreaker socks holding up after years?

@thewellnessfamily which sock was warmest?
@thewellnessfamily2 жыл бұрын
The Darn Tough are the thickest, so they are the warmest. But if you're looking for a really warm sock, I'd look for a crew cut. Being an ankle/low-cut sock, none of them will keep your ankles warm in very cold weather.
