I bought a pair of these in october of 2019, loved how they fit snugly but not cutting off circulation, and how clean they still were at the end of a days work (live sound engineer, on my feet standing/running most of the day, 14+ hour shifts, all types of weather, pushing heavy road cases, etc.) I could wash them once and be ready to wear them the next day and thats actually more than i could say for other thicker socks at the time which would always seem to need extra soap or a second wash to really get clean. I loved how sturdy and strong they were so much that I bought another 5 pairs later that same month. Now, in December of 2024 those same 12 pairs are holding up just fine after literally over 100 washes each, some have some very slight hanging threads and some wear around the heel but not a single hole. Their elasticity is still strong, and their still easy to get clean. Overall, these socks are holding up wonderfully. I cant recommend them enough for situations where you need some extra support and padding but aren't going to do a two layer backpacking type sock situation where you have liners then thicker socks overtop. I also have hyperhydrosis which means i sweat a lot more than most people, and that often translates to some really tough to manage foot odor after more than 8 hours, but these seem to wick moisture better and somehow significantly tame what odor does stick around. The whole germanium thing really seems to work as these socks, despite being thicker and having the potential to hold a lot of odor in- are always better and don't smell nearly as much as whatever other sock i might wear, the thin backpacker socks from carhartt are a close second. tl;dr: I can't recommend these socks enough. Great fit for anyone that needs a strong reinforced sock that manages odors and cleans easily, permitted they can get used to the compression sock feeling. Bought 12 pairs in Oct 2019 and they're still going strong, wouldn't be surprised if i got another 5 years out of them. Thanks Germapro Read more

My hubby loves these. He works outdoors and puts in over 12k in steps a day. He gets a lot of pain in his feet, so for him to say he likes these is a big thing. They are the only socks he'll wear to work. We have ordered several sets. Read more

Product fits very well. I used for my hikes in Patagonia. The weather would go from warm to cold to rainy/snowy and the socks held up to each of the elements and kept my feet comfortable (which is important) and dry. My feet or shoes didn’t smell either. If needed you can get two days out of them without a wash. Don’t judge me :) if you travel like I do sometimes that happens . Amazing socks I’m going to get a few more pair for my trips. Read more

Great pair of socks. Built to last. I’m about to order another pair or two. I have two pairs already but I need to have a pair for everyday of the week. My work boots chew socks up pretty quick usually but these are built to last and help keep my boots from digging into my legs out ankles. Read more

Appear to be a decent pair of socks. I was excited to try the extra added cushioning, only to find out there isn't any. The pictures are very misleading as there is only fabric where is shows there would be some kind of foam woven in. Trying them on they are tight and feel like they have good compression, I hope they are worth the money spent and perform as described even though they aren't quite what was highlighted in the product photos.

These socks really are good. I never write product reviews, but I decided these are worthy of the time. They fit snugly, but don't squeeze uncomfortably. Moreover, they cushion your foot. I haven't had a chance to try them on the trail, or in extreme weather conditions other than heat and humidity. Were not drenched with sweat like other socks after an ordinary day's wear in the heat. Still had some life in them. I suspect they would be warm in cooler temperatures (probably no use for extreme cold, though). And I suspect they would help keep your feet dry in rainy weather. Also, they come with a ziplock carry pouch, good for long term hiking. Read more

These socks are thick, heavy and expensive. This is my second purchase of these socks and my third purchase is on the way. I only wear them at work; I’m a casino custodian and wear them in Rothco Vietnam era jungle boots. I’m on my feet and walking the entire shift. I believe these socks are made specifically for hikers and hiking boots, although the product description doesn’t come right out and say that. These socks provide surprising benefits to my feet. I can finally wear my boots without my feet being sore when I get home - and that was the sole reason I took the risk and paid the hefty price for these. Yeah, I have worn comfortable shoes at work but I need boots for this job. And these socks make that a pleasant experience. Read more
