SmartWool Heathered Rib Sock - Men's

An old favorite with a new name

By Backcountry.com Employee December 15, 2008

I love SmartWool socks, and was disappointed to learn about a year ago that my favorite model of Smartwool sock -- the Casual Sport Crew -- was no longer in production. Eventually I contacted SmartWool and they told me that this sock -- the Heathered Rib -- is the same sock. Hooray! However, before I learned this, I tried a couple of other SmartWool types including the Adrenaline Medium. The Adrenalines are just as good, but not as well suited for indoor use, IMO. They make me feet just a little too warm, whereas the Casual Sport Crew/Heathered Rib seem to keep them just the right temperature whether I'm indoors or outdoors.
