Did you think I would not notice?
I have been wearing Smartwooll exclusively for over 20 years. I guess they thought I would not notice they keep reducing the wool while going up on price continually! When I started wearing these socks they had 83% wool, they have kept reducing the wool and now are down to 66%! I guess I will look for another brand of REAL wool socks!

Needs more Sheep!
After 20 years of trusting this product, I would have rather had a price increase than the wool reduction. These socks were the absolute best when they were over 80% wool. Four season comfort and lasted for years and hundreds of miles... which must have been the problem that mandated the solution of reducing wool content. These are now three season socks, because that's as long as they'll last and they aren't quite warm enough for our winters.

The most durable socks on the market.
I have been wearing my first pair of Hike Medium Crews for 10 years! I wear these all the time; running, working, kayaking, chores. Summer or Winter. Anything and everything I do is in a pair of Hike Medium Crews. They are always the right temperature. They look like they would be too warm for summer days, but they regulate the temperature perfectly. They are not too warm on hot days, in fact they keep my feet cool and dry. They allow my feet to breathe and I love them for it. Please note: I am a SmartWool employee, but I have only been an employee for three years and I have been wearing these socks for ten.

I thought socks were just socks. I was wrong.
I've never cared or thought much about socks, until my wife got me a couple of pairs of these a while back. I have to say my feet have never been so happy. We live in Southern California, and I thought that wool socks would make my feet way too hot in a warm climate - but these keep my feet cooler than any polyester or cotton sock every has. They're incredibly comfortable, cool when they need to be cool, and warm when they need to warm. Until these, I'd always just bought socks like... well... like they were all the same. I've never been happier to be proven wrong, and love, love, love these socks.

Want higher Wool Content? See Below for alternatives
If you are in the market for something with a higher wool %, Check out both the Trekking Heavy Crew sock (70% wool) as well as the PhD Outdoor Heavy Crew (73%). Also the Mountaineering Extra Heavy (74%). Granted these will be thicker than the Medium Crew above.

Great socks, worth the price!
After suffering through winter after winter in Buffalo with frozen, wet feet, I changed over to Smartwool socks a few years ago and could not be happier. They last forever, and consistently keep your feet dry, cushioned, and warm. I got rid of all my cotton socks and now only wear Smartwool. My feet are MUCH happier.

Other socks are just disappointing now
These have been my go to hiking socks for years now. I try others, and always end up coming back to these. They're durable, just the right amount of thickness/padding, wick well, and keep my feet from feeling overheated, and I think it might be impossible to make them smell bad. I once did a 4 day backpacking trip with 1 pair. I had a spare, just never bothered to switch (I was curious).
