Rated 5 out of 5

Great socks

I bought a few pair of these for a week long backpacking trip along the Long Trail in Vermont. I purchased them to replace some LL Bean Crest socks that have been okay but which bunch up at the toes. So for complicated reasons I ended up wearing those socks for about 4 days, all of which were with extremely wet feet. We had constant storms, and were walking in mud and water most of the time. So even with wet boots, socks, (wet everything) I had no blisters carrying a heavy pack. Excellent socks and I plan to buy more. The fit is wonderful.
