I stick with Blaxnit/Bridgedale Pathfinders now, from trying them after one of these threads on here. Thick soles, stay up inside wellies and incredibly hard wearing. Just bought another dozen pairs off eBay a few days ago, to clear out all the other odds & sods that never get worn now.

I could do you a good deal on a bag of those ‘odds & sods’ if you’re looking for a bargain. Most haven’t even got holes in.:)

Without doubt Pathfinders are the only recommendation I've made on here you've tried and agree with :ROFLMAO:

No other sock gets close to them(y)

If you go on any decent hiking webpages you will find brands like https://www.alpinetrek.co.uk/outdoor-socks/ Decent socks cost money. Darn Tough is a USA brand known for handling a tough life. Stuff your cheap JCB and all that rubbish. Elastic goes and wash like primark rags end up ditching after a few months. . What I like about these proper brands is the sizes. The fellas feet size 13 so many socks are too small.
