Patagonia Ultra Lightweight Hiking Crew Liner Socks - 2007 BCS

Wore them 3 days in a row and not only did they wick nearly all the moisture away from my feet but they somehow managed to stay fresh and not stanky...lol...(that is stink to another, higher level)...

I bought 3 pairs last season; and liked them so much I got another 3 pairs this season; since I usually go on 6-night tele-touring trips.

They show no signs of wear after 100s of miles in Wyoming. They feel much more like my own skin than my old Thorlos. And they feel just as warm as the Thorlos (even at temperatures as low as -10F at twilight; and lower while snowmobiling home in the evening).

I'll probably never wear thick socks skiing again.

I am not a fan of thick socks! Thick socks can cause blisters and catch on your toenails causing "black toe". If you have a quality pair of hiking boots, you don't need all of that sock padding. Just something to allow your feet to move freely within the boot. These socks breathe well, are easily washed, and quick drying. My favorites!

Ok, yea, when I bought these my first thought was "Oh boy, something to make my legs look even whiter" But hey...first of all your gonna be wearin em UNDER other socks. Second of all, these socks ROCK...they're better than the thorlo liner deals and those cheaper liners that rei makes and they do a good job of preventing hot spots) Third of all, whose gonna be lookin at your dam legs anyway?
