[homme.homme]

[yannickl]

^those are really cool.

btw homme.homme you got to start posting more again, waywt have always been dope.

[homme.homme]

'ey. maybe. so lazy.

[jaac]

Try outdoor stores, they normally have nice quality wool ones.

[Vampyrvargfesten]

for completeness, i finally found the old "socks thread" for anyone who is interested.

also, black fleece has a really steezy black fair isle sock.

kinda into it, put i don't think i can pull off too much black/charcoal...

i just got a pair of this season's white mountaineering socks.

great fair isle print, calf-length. some of the other season's socks are made from wool. these aren't though, it's 50% cotton, 32% acrylic, 14% nylon, 4% polyurethane. they run really narrow. a bit tight in the calf area, unless you've got stick legz.

fit pic of socks being worn..

these are ill. does union do phone orders for products that are only available in store?

[gettoasty]

^ i stocked up on those jcrew socks during sale as well. comfy

peeps who been posting socks on recent purchases are tempting me to go sock hunting! still love my black crew cuts from footlocker though, very comfy and construction is good (only one hole after 6+ month of wear and it occurred at the ribbing past ankle)

[skiniks]

i need those blue and red joints in my life

[Vampyrvargfesten]

Bought a pair of Odyn Vovk socks.

Packaging reads:

Silvix Nano Antibacterial Fabric

Kills 99.9% of Bacteria

Non Toxic

Deodorizes

Rapidly Absorbs and Drys

35% Silvix Polyester

65% Cotton

I have no idea how this nanotechnology works, but it's keeping my feet comfy..

those are ugly

the ribbing reminds me of cheap ass $1 socks

[mellowfellow]

speaking of uniqlo socks, I bought some today. Not too thick or thin, I think these are good for spring/summer.

^^ Tight shoes. What kind are they?

[Spaghettini]

i spent more than $70 on socks this past year

i personally vouch for the woodlands wool socks

ps - i can't wear those thin uniqlo socks anymore. after about 3 wears, they rip. heavy duty wool socks are the only way to go.

man i was just telling someone how indestructible uniqlo socks are. what are you doing in these socks thats wrecking them?

[White Teeth]

you know that wolf is from the internet rite?

[echoepidemic]

oh god that would make the socks 100000x worse

[Vampyrvargfesten]

you know that wolf is from the internet rite?

Yeah, knew about that; I like them regardless.

Just trying to build up a little collection of crazy socks here.

These Nepenthes socks are really dope

They're nice and springy. I have a pair of the black/grey melange ones

Here's a brand that popped up on a rakuten search;

called "phatee wear" .. some wierd shit going on with the pattern... (is it a row of candles?)

but i really dig the colors

Next sock? Maybe some Bape camo socks if they still have these in the NYC store.

The "bapenative pattern" they did is also pretty dope too

Really wish they had a Uniqlo where I lived. It would make buying cheap basics such a breeze...

[Phrost3]

[DüM]

the fox river jawns from woodlands are dope. pretty thick though.

those nepenthes socks look cool.

[reaper]

[lmaozedong]

i always poke holes in the toes of my uniqlo socks after 10 wears or so. still my go to when i have a chance to make it up to nyc tho

[ohsnap]

newest additions to the sock collection:

[thomas_collins]

Will be proxying these soon. Kapital is killing it in the sock department.

[Pavlov's Bell]

^moar info pls.

[wrong_move]

Will be proxying these soon. Kapital is killing it in the sock department.

yeah

want these

[thomas_collins]

http://www.kapital.jp/e-store/

Pretty difficult to get most things Kapital besides their denim - and I only like everything besides their denim. Only one store in the US carries non-denim Kapital - they are apparently very exclusive about who they will sell to. Their non-denim stuff is basically American farm/gypsy workwear as imagined by a Japanese dude - pretty cool.

[lmaozedong]

muji socks look sick. anyone have experience with them? would cop if i could pick the colors.

[slight]

Those Muji recycled yarn socks are not too bad, and pretty cheap per pack (something like 210NTD for 3 pairs)... can't really pick colours per se, they come in mixed packs.

They have individual pairs which are more like Uniqlo's range.
