Socks?

[Reflex]

Hi all,

As I am reading around.....for /springsummer training socks and for winter merino wool socks? Or would I use a mix of both in both seasons?

I used to go all synthetic in the summer and add in some wool for winter, but now I use merino wool / synthetic blend socks year round - these for 3 season use, and even as I type this:

...and I use the heavier Darn Tough cushion wool blend socks for winter, in a VBL arrangement with a liner if needed. It seemed that I used be to fixing a blister on nearly any extended trip, but this setup has completely resolved that issue for me.
