Can you ever have enough????
They are taking over the undies on the left side of the drawer -- it's about 1/8 undies, 1/5 sport bras -- the rest all socks. And this is a 4' long drawer! When I find what works, I buy a bunch! Love the ones you just bought, by the way! I also LOVE Balega socks for running.

I use those smart wool socks you show as my casual lounge around socks.
For running (well, whatever, I don't "run", but for that stupid marathon I did in 2006) and for cycling, I use these:
I also just got these (in green - DUH) and they are delicious for cold days:
Oh - and these are great for hiking:
I love socks.![]()

I'd been looking at the polka dot ones...
But seriously, I have an overstuffed drawer full of socks.

They're wonderful. I love them. so cozy - super soft. Almost like cashmere.
ETA: The ones you are using are sort of a gateway sock.![]()

I was a thorlo addict, then got converted to smartwool socks for many years. Recently I've decided Balega socks are my one and only. I've recently acquired 5 pairs (which is how many days of the week I run). Before I had to ration them to long run days but now my feet are happy every day of the week!
I love Smartwool socks but I need to track down some of those grey ones for offroad bog hopping....haven't seen them in any of the online shops I frequent. I could use a few more pairs (no really I do) as I seem to run and pedal with my toes up and put holes in my socks (and through the mesh of my last pair of cycling shoes).
I get paid tomorrow, may have a bit of a peek in some shops today...
