Reply to comment by agentvulva in Switching to all Darn Tough socks: How many pairs, what kinds? by Highwayman1717

You keep saying cotton.

Darn Tough socks are made with wool.

Wool is different than cotton.

it doesn't matter the same rule applies to wool or cotton. the most important thing is you need a baseline of 60% organic material. If you start to reduce this in favor of synthetic material then the socks can no longer breathe properly.

full merino would also be tricky because the wool would wear out after about 6 months of heavy usage and you would get holes in your socks quicker.

With as much respect as I can muster:

If you don't know the differences between cotton and wool then I have very little faith in your opinion on the subject.

It honestly looks like a competing brand trying to talk shit about another or some troll. Notice how they caps lock the brand and only the brand. They've done it in previous posts as well. Seems sketchy.

Apparently Darn Tough Socks has a "troll army" downvoting agentvulva. I didn't know we were part of the troll army. Did we get drafted? Are y'all getting paid? LMFAO

lol probably smartwool. I hate their socks because every pair I had only lasted one winter.

Oh hey same boat. I bought smart wool and darn tough socks at the same time. Already had the smart wool develop holes but all the darn tough are working just fine.
