I'm looking at buying some good warm socks for winter walking. I really suffer with the cold. Any suggestions?

In reply to pammy: Someones bound to get you a pair for christmas , its one of those x-mas traditions ....

In reply to pammy: Smartwool

In reply to stevebt: I'll be dropping hints to the family for a pair which are good.

In reply to pammy:
Thorlo / Thiorlo however they spell it. Good socks.

In reply to Stormmagnet:

second that...smartwool socks every time.

In reply to Morgan Woods:

Third that, but then I work for anatom the UK distributors so I would say that! Seriously though the Mountaineering extra heavy is great. http://www.anatom.co.uk/public/products/smartwool-mountaineering-crimson/#

In reply to pammy: smartwool as well - I've got expedition ones which are really toasty I don't need a liner with them.

In reply to pammy:

Not really about socks as such, but if you get cold feet don't stuff your boots so full of sock that they feel even remotely tight. Also wear gaiters (to keep feet drier, extra insulation and stops the cold getting to gap at the bottom of the trousers which cuts blood flow).
