They Shine on Long Descents

By Gardner Foss Ranked #144 - Socks November 4, 2009

I love everything about these socks. Where they particularly excel is on long descents. If you've trudged down a rocky 2 mile staircase with 30+ lbs on your back, you know that after a while, your toes start to take a beating. Even on gradual descents, blisters can show up and ruin your day (week, month, trek). That's not the case with these beauties. I've worn mine multiple days without washing, doing 10-20 mile days, and they still hold up.

Also highly breathable, ultra comfy, SUPER durable. Only downside...my girlfriend keeps stealing them from me.

Truly worth every penny!
