Merino vs Coolmax

Darn Tough Merino Wool Mesh 1/4 Sock

Darn Tough Merino Wool Mesh 1/4 Sock

Rating for this product: 5 May 28, 2008

These are the best darn socks in the world, no kidding. This particular light weight summer sock is fantastic for light hiking and especially bicycling. Darn Tough makes their socks with either CoolMax or Merino wool. It's your choice, but I find wool to be better than CoolMax, because it wicks moisture better and keeps my footsies nice and dry (unless I decide to swim in my socks)! I think CoolMax tends to keep the moisture closer to my skin, but maybe I simply sweat too much. Try both CoolMax and Merino wool versions, then decide for yourself. I made my decision 5 years ago and have never recanted. I love these so much that I sleep in them. Well, maybe that's just a bit of an exaggeration on my part. But just try 'em. Your feet will love you for it.

KEEN Zerraport Sandal - Men's

KEEN Zerraport Sandal - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 May 19, 2008

Bought these Terrasport sandals after wearing a pair of Newports for some time. The Terrasport, however, is an altogether different sandal, so take it seriously. Although simple in design, the continuous strap secures tightly at each loop, contouring to your foot perfectly. Use the back Velcro-adjustable strap to secure your heel and position your foot forwards or back. Then, hit the trail with or without socks. The underlying support is suitable for backpacking, while the sandal design offers a sense of freedom and lack of constraint. I haven't found a better sandal than the Terrasport. Doesn't get the press that other models do, but it offers greater versatility and a more secure fit. Your feet will love these!
