Wool Cotton Socks

Nylon, lycra, rayon, spandex mixes make my feet sweet and I don't like that, Any help is appreciated!
I have even seen bamboo socks but didnt buy them because i wasnt sure they would wick away moisture in my dress shoes- Fall is here and it was cold today. I would like a nice comfortable sock and my feet are worth $15 or less a pair to me, LOL

etsy.com has lots of hand made ones you can buy, also if you can craft you can swap on craftster.org for some that is what i do :)

Wear both. Wool socks next to your feet, and cotton on the outside. The cotton will absorb your sweat and the wool will keep your feet dry. This works especially well if your boots are made of a breathable material like Gore-tex.

60% Virgin Wool, 40% Stretch Nylon

Machine wash warm, tumble dry low

I came to know about this recently from a reputed Socks Manufacturer who has 20 years experience. He says Machine wash reduces the life of elastic of the Socks.

I'm sure he's right and it does - but I really, truly, envy anyone who actually has the time to handwash socks!!! It's that age old debate, time versus money, plus the eternal question of what constitutes quality of life.....

I recently bought a pair of Rocky brand-Fort Hood 8" boots. They're great for the most part. Not to gross anyone out, but my only problem is that my feet get hot and sweaty in them. I've tried merino wool socks and plain cotton socks with only minimal relief as a result. I don't want to have to get another pair of boots, but it's real uncomfortable having your feet feel like they're in the Amazon. I don't have time to change socks in the middle of my shift and foot powders only work for about an hour.

Do any of you have any advice/first hand experience on socks that can my help my feet get cooler and drier? Any recommendations? Thanks.

And a message to all of the "trolls" on here:
We bust ours to save yours! Remember that.

I'd consider getting a lighter weight duty boot for the summer months. I had the same problem you do but with a pair of Rocky Eliminators. I switched to a pair of Altama lightweights and they have been great!
