The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

They are comfortable, perfect for hiking, merino wool, lifetime warranties etc. They perform great in any conditions keeping your foot comfortable and shielded from the elements. They aren't scratchy or uncomfortable at all.

Quality

The quality of these socks is incomparable to regular socks.

The quality is very good, and i also like the color and design.

What sets these socks apart for me are they are thin like cotton socks, not big puffy things like you get with the average wool socks.

Price

Product itself is good, but the price is also not cheap, just got what is priced.

The product is five stars, but the price is crazy high.

Competitiveness

Seem to hug my mid foot better than my smartwool socks.

However, these darn tough socks are holding up like a champ, as they should with a lifetime warranty!

Just as good if not better than merrell brand.
