Reviews
Great pair of socks
"Light weight and quick drying. Socks were taken on hike though the Kuman Kodo trail in Japan in June. Approx 30°C and over 85% humidity. Work as the 2nd layer socks over toe socks, helped prevent blisters. Usually women's size 8 and puchased the M-L size as it was going to be the 2nd layer and it ran slightly large (to be expected)"
Poor quality
"Wore literally twice before holes appeared in the sole. Don’t waste your money"
Fabulous travel socks for warmer climates
"Quick drying and comfortable. Work as the 2nd layer on a multi-day hike in June in Japan - approx 30°C and over 85% humidity. Washed and hung out overnight."
Too big!
"I bought the medium size. They were way to big for my feet. So I gave them to my husband: his foot is bigger than mine and they fit him perfectly!"
You wont regret this buy!
