They don't wear socks; like Sonny Crockett in Miami Vice; and that H&S officer in another thread ;).

I have about 20 pairs of them plus about 5 pairs of the arctic ones further down the page, they are even better, although I wouldn't pay that for them

Top tip for getting quality socks.

Head for the local outdoor shop and try on some of the top of the range boots. They usually provide good socks so you get a proper feel for the boots.

Simply do what I did and forget to take the socks off before leaving. Hey presto free top quality socks.
