i haven't used these yet (I try to buy Smart Wool on summer clearance) but you can't go wrong with these socks. Soft, non-stinky, best socks for out door activities of any kind. And pretty durable; I tend to just wear them around the house, too instead of slippers.
I wore these socks skiing on a cold day with a very wet ski boot. My feet stayed dry all day long. These socks also fit very well in my tight race boot.
