Robert Schaverien December,2015 These socks are excellent all round.I have also found them more comfortable than cotton in the summer and reasonably warm in the winter.They also wash and dry quickly which I found useful when travelling.As mentioned in the other review they are a good fit and breathe. As Humphrey Law are not cheap but very well made I suggest potential customers do the following: 1.Talk to the people at Sock Revolution for their advice -they are sock enthusiasts and knowledgeable. 2.Everyone is different.I would buy one pair of any that sound right.Wear and wash them a few times and if good order a few pairs.I found these and the alpaca/wool for winter are the best combination for me but others may prefer cotton,pure wool and so forth.
