Warm Hiking Socks - Sh500 Ultra-Warm Mid - 2 Pairs, Blue

Great value, look good, feel good - comfortable. Look forward to using them on longer hikes (10 plus miles).

These used to be my favourite hiking socks and I have bought more than a dozen pairs over the years. Sadly Decathlon have steadily decreased the wool content to the point they are simply not wool socks. The meagre 29% (alleged) wool content now seems to be confined to the collar of the socks. The feet appear to be entirely composed of shiny, nylon-type fibres. In addition they are now loose, baggy and ill fitting from the arch of the foot to the toes. I wore them for the first time for a relatively short walk; within an hour my feet were sweaty and damp. Totally unbreathable compared to wool socks. That, combined with the poor fit resulted in several blisters on my soles and toes. I have NEVER had blisters with the previous versions of these socks with a higher wool content. I am returning all four pairs. For heaven's sake Decathlon, what were you thinking?!

Comfortable warm merino wool socks. Anatomically designed so need to follow the L&R label stitched in. Review questions make you laugh when the ask about abrasion resistance when you�ve only had them a week.But so far thankfully no holes in them ?

Were great for skiing! Didn�t feel the cold at all and they�re very comfortable. Thin enough that you can still wear your ski boots or regular shoes comfortably but thick enough that they keep you warm.
