I own a lot of socks. My sock drawer is packed full with over 20 different types of socks. And that’s just socks I wear for running and hiking.
Most are ankle high but I have a few crew length. A few are the short mini crews that just come up to the top of the shoe but those are not my favorite socks. The ones I wear over and over are the ankle style. I almost never wear the others—they are only in my drawer because I got them as samples. Sure, I tried them but I favor the ankle high socks for comfort.
In no certain order, these are my favorite socks:
1. Injinji – These are the socks with individual socks for each toe.
2. Smartwool – Great, reliable wool socks.
3. Teko – Great socks, partically made with recycled fibers by a company dedicacted to the environment.
4. Darn Tough – Wool socks made for the rigors of the outdoors.
Will I always stick to these socks? They will always remain my favorites, but I will certainly add more. Sock companies are working hard to develop better socks fabrics and better blends. This means good things for those of us who want our feet to be happy.
