Summary
Ripped easily. Comfortable but of questionable quality.
Pros
- Price
- Comfort
- Light
Cons
- Ripped easily
I bought two pairs of these socks in Navy. I almost always buy Smartwool liners but was in REI thought I would give these a shot. I took a pair out of the pocket they were in and they had a hole just from the packaging. They staple them in to a piece of cardboard which I am sure does not help. I will take those back on another REI trip.
Second pair seems to be holding up but I definitely feel the difference between polyester and wool on my feet. Wool is the more comfortable of the two. The polyester is light and the costs is good. The second pair is holding up but definitely is showing signs of wear.
