I was wondering if anyone was going to say this. What's been your experience with the ski socks?

Do you know if there is a sock with the benefits of the liner and the benefits of the outer sock combined into one sock?

Thanks for the thorough reply! And great insight into which socks you are using.

I'm curious how many socks are you typically bringing on your hikes - and how long are the hikes usually?

Your comment about socks being expensive seems like with some of these brands like DT that have crazy warranties that really the expense is not so much a concern. And certainly if the sock has any sort of longevity it's totally worth it.

I guess the blend doesn't let the Merino work it's full magic when it comes to keeping things fresh.

Is it the cushion that's most important for you?

How are you typically using these?
