We bought these to give as a gift. The lady lives in a cooler climate. She was delighted to recieve them and put them on right away. She wore them around the house our whole visit and praised the socks several times. They are soft and don't cause itching.
This is a classic wool sock... great for cold weather hiking, also for padding about the house. I go through several pairs every winter and keep coming back for more. Love both the look and the feel.
During the cold winter months I am rarely cold; except for my feet. These socks not only keep my tooties toasty but also retain their shape after washing.
