Reply to comment by simmering_happiness in Grip6 - The best socks and belt I've ever had. by Happyhaha2000

I only buy a specific pair of black mid adidas socks for this reason, they are my favorite sock and no matching is needed

Same here for saucony socks. I use them for rowing, cycling and just general dress down days. I buy an 18 pack once a year, and let them battle it out for survival of the fittest.

For that sweet sweet fit that never binds or bunches. As a long distance runner that never gets blisters or any other foot malady caused by inferior socks I swear by them and they still keep you warm when you get them wet well below freezing

Does the fact that they still provide the functionality of wool socks with the additional functionality is shape that will can’t provide threaten you in someway?

I do the same thing. I also only wash them once I’ve used all pairs so that they are all washed equally and will wear out semi evenly.

I just go by where they fall in the strata of my hamper. Those that go into the empty basket stand the best chance, but life is full of uncertainty.
