Pros:
Comfortable, Good Design, Regulates Temperature Well, Should prove durable, Stylish, Wicks Away Moisture
Best Uses:
Daily Use, Hiking, Travel
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This was my second order for these socks. I intend to use them as knee-highs because we don't get to do snow riding or snow boarding here! On a recent night, I needed knee-highs and gave them a first test. They stayed up without binding my calves, and that is wonderful. I have trouble finding such socks that don't make my calves--and thus my feet--hurt. I was delighted that my feet stayed neither too warm nor too cold. My husband had me
order 2 pairs for him this time. He has tried them on and pronounced them "Great!"

Pros:
Comfortable, Good Design, Regulates Temperature Well, Should perform well, Stylish, Wicks Away Moisture
Best Uses:
Daily Use, Hiking
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have reviewed these socks before. I ordered them to wear instead of knee-highs available in our area in fabrics that I don't enjoy wearing. My feet feel cold and damp in cotton; I sometimes wear acrylic, but it just doesn't match SmartWool. With other brands and fabrics, I usually find toe seams that hurt my sensitive toes and tops that really bind--or slide down. SmartWool toes are unbelievably comfortable; tops stay up but do not bind too much. The socks keep my feet warm without making them hot. When I have worn the socks for awhile and remove them, they may feel damp, but my feet are dry. I ordered two pairs for my husband, who taught me about SmartWool socks. He will use them for winter wear; he tried them on and pronounced them "Great!"
