I'll have to give those a try once things cool off some. I'm all about cheap, quick drying socks. Good call on the wool blends. I’ll have to give those a try once things cool off some.

They wear well, are warmer than liners and don't get the stink that poly socks can be troubled with. They dry quickly because they're thin and they're very light. Try it sometimes. Not cheap, but you can usually find them at a discounter with blemishes for about $4 a pair.
