>socks
how do i not have these things turn into sweat sieves while dicking about?
i'm sure i have to get better socks, but what brand doesn't just get tons of holes after a little use?
>>
buy wool socks dummy
>>
>>2870657
Darn Tough. And if they do get a bunch of holes you can send them back for a warranty replacement.
>>
>>2870657
try putting them on your feet instead of your dick.
>>
>>2870678
but i like it when they're crunchy
>>
Go buy wool socks already. Better then cotton socks in every single scenario and they last longer. Only time cotton socks are acceptable is if you're a desk jockey office bitch that needs socks for formal fashion and you never actually do any real movement in them.
>>
>>2870657
Maybe not wear them at all when it gets too hot? Take the sandals pill.
>>
>>2870657
You change into a dry pair, let the wet pair air out. You just missed Memorial Day sales, be ready for 4th of July sales.
All socks wear out, you’re putting lots of pressure and your body weight on them. Look for well reviewed wool/poly blends like darn thought and smart wool.

Sorry I actually go outdoors

wool, got it
thank you anons
>>2870697
i don't know whats up >>2870731's ass, but during summer i'll wear water shoes when out
its closeer to going barefoot (which i generally prefer), and it lets me wander streams all i want
>>
>>2870697
I've hiked 4000m peaks in sandals it's not that bad depending on the terrain
>>
Darn tough are a meme. Buy wool socks from Costco they're like $5 for 3 pairs, and are the same quality as darn toughs, I have both because I fell for the meme.
>>
>>2870657
if youre just someone who sweats a ton theres nothing you can do but try to ignore it. i sweat more than anyone ive ever met, im always totally drenched at the end of the day when backpacking. wool socks dont do shit. ill swap my socks and underwear at camp but no use in doing it on the trail when theyre going to be soaked through again in 20 minutes.
>>
>>2870732
I don't know if they make them but linen would be nice, too

(merino)wool sock itch me
is the only soluton to go 100% synthethic?
>>
>>2873866
most people hike in polyprop socks
I use "wright socks" they are double layer so your feet get roughed up less
>>
You could utilize cornstarch or other foot powders. Wool and blends can still get wet and sweaty—they are not a complete solution for waterlogged clothing.
Your issue may stem from your footwear rather than the undergarments. Waterproof shoes trap moisture and reduce breathability. Breathable sandals could help, but long-distance walking without arch support is not recommended, as many sandals lack adequate support and increase the risk of twisted ankles or roll over ankle injuries.
I understand how frustrating swamp ass and moist feet can be. It’s a good idea to take breaks on the trail and air out your undergarments on a branch or something.
>>
>>2870657
All these people talking about the type of socks are tards. It mostly comes down to the shoe. Only after that does sock choice matter. Get a well ventilated shoe first off.
>>
>>2873866
>(merino)wool sock itch me
that's not possible, it's a natural mat
you bought/got fake wool
>>
>>2873866
You can go for yak or llama wool. Just make sure you get one that is blended with synthetic fibers if you want it to not disintegrate after your first hike.
