Love the article on socks. I'll add an endorsement for these Cabela Medium-Weight Boot Socks.

I bought 8 pair of these many (15? 20?) years ago. I liked them so much I went back the next week and bought 8 more. I still have all of them, and I wear them year-round. They are comfortable in heat or cold, never make me sweat, not too tight at the top, and they do NOT wear out. I've not had so much as a single hole in any of them. Even the elastic is good. The medium-gray color works with anything short of formal wear. I feel like I need to replace them but I can't think of a good reason to do so. Now I'm wondering if Carhart makes them.

Keep up the good work!

Another most excellent collection. My fave? "In Praise of Working Alongside Others" was just plain wonderful!
