This is the second review for these socks. The originals I bought for my wife and now for my daughter-in-law. Still the same great sock super comfy and warm and the cashmere sure kicks it up a notch to luxurious! Great material, design for support as these socks work for any outdoor activity and keeps you warm, dry and super "gooshie"! A little pricey but the smiles on their faces make up for it in spades!

These bags don't forget are free with purchase! I don't know about you, but if you're going to spend money on quality products you gotta try to make it last! These bags not only keep socks new and without pulls and can be used for keeping any outdoor product in the best shape you can!

They are so soft and cozy. Perfect for cool days and found that even on warmer days they don’t heat my feet up. One tip-don’t put in dryer, they keep their shape and size better.

Super no-show socks, great material and support in the sock and is extremely a good wicking and all around good summer activity. Good colour ways and great selection makes this one of the most comfortable summer sock I haver purchased!

Sharing the years of experience and knowledge I have let my entire in on the positives of merino and how super and reasonable the price of quality Great Sox you can buy and replace old synthetic, old school useless socks! Great Sox is a Toronto institution that has been a land mark in my old stomping grounds since the late 1800's. Nothing lasts that long unless you have a good reputation and great quality product. I have done many reviews on these great hiking socks and all the others I have pur...

J.B. Field’s "Hiker GX" 74% Merino Wool Hiking Crew Sock

Terry

These are the best socks I've ever owned. They are soft, warm and lightweight. There is just enough elastic to keep them from falling down to my ankles, but not cut off circulation to my legs. Quality does not cost that much more than poorly made but cheaper goods. No more tube socks. No more Costco bargains.

What a fantastic sock! I was bummed out with the most recent set of winter work boots i purchased, but upgrading my socks made the biggest difference! I was drawn to J.B. Fields because they are made in Canada. Best way to keep your feet warm and dry.

Ramona

So difficult to get warm women's socks that will fit in the sleek Italian boots or my sneakers! These are awesome! They are snug and warm for a Canadian winter, don't bunch up and don't slide down! I intend to buy a few more pairs! Thank you!

Paul

This is a well made sock. I am pleased. To make it perfect, I would put an elastic band around the main part. between the toe and heel, keep it more secure, but its well made. Not sure if its suitable for summer, but we'll see. Definitely good for winter!

Jean

I am so relieved to have found 96% merino wool socks, the only wool sock that doesn’t irritate my skin and cause incessant itching. And even though I must wear them wrong side out (the seam irritates the toes) I just don’t care. Comfort rules over vanity any day of the week. Maybe one day they will make the Sox with the seam on the outside, but until then I’m sticking with these. They also are nice and loose at the top of the dock so ankles don’t get squeezed. For me, the comfort and softness ma...

Best socks ever keeps my feet warm and dry throughout the hunting season. Plus great on the ice of sitting for hours out in the cold waiting to catch the monster trout lurking below the ice. Awesome sock comfortable in your boots with out creeping down in your boots.

Alan

I have tried every merino wool sock on the market and these are the best value out there- by far. I'm on my feet all day long and these are all I wear all four seasons. Cool in summer, warm in winter. I don't know why they call them sub-zero as though their thickness is only a virtue in extreme cold. They are very thick but the miracle of merino wool is that it keeps a wicking layer between my feet and work boots. They absorb shock, not water or sweat and keep your feet comfortable in any w...

I was finding other sock brands were binding my legs too much so I thought I would try these. These socks are cosy warm and don't hamper my circulation, I have worn them with shoes, runners and low cut hikes they are very comfortable. They are a must have sock as they are cozy warm without bulk. I am definitely going to buy more!

My hiker socks from The Great Canadian Socks Company are washable, durable and toasty! They arrived promptly at my doorstep, just in time for the chilly weather. I’ll be buying more for sure!

Selia

I looked for the past few years for a sock like one favorite pair I bought at a Canadian sock store that closed after Toronto came under restrictions due to the pandemic. Fortunately Great Sox offered a great sock on sale recently and it was such an excellent sock very similar to my favorite sock! I liked it so much that I ordered 3 more pairs of this excellent sock. It is a good length and is very comfortable to wear, not too binding but stays up well.

These are perfect summer socks for my oldest boy so he doesn’t get stinky feet! I wish they came in kids sizes so I have to wait a little longer for my youngest 2 to be able to wear these.

The socks are fast becomming my favourite. The looser top is very comfortable. I appreciate the extremely high cotton content and love the fact that they are made in Canada. Keep up the good work! Thank you.

I have been buying socks from The Great Canadian Sock Shop for the last 5 or so years. I send them to friends all over the world as gifts. And best of all they are worm and long lasting. You will not be disappointed with your purchase. Craig

We bought these as my chemo is causing blisters on my feet. These socks are helping that problem but they are so soft, comfortable and have almost a padding on the sole, got for me husband tried one and we had to buy for him as well. Great socks.

Ken

My family and I have made a commitment to change as many of our purchases in our home to products that are grown, manufactured or at least assembled in Canada. I came across JB Fields and decided to place an order as I was in desperate need of socks. My order arrived about 6 weeks ago and I can tell you that I am thrilled. The order process was smooth, the quality of the socks is amazing and I appreciated the option to have my order shipped with minimal packaging/tags. This will be the only ...

Gayle

These well-made, quality socks are awesome, even for people like me who don't live, work or play in extreme temperatures. Perfect to quickly warm up cold feet for those with Raynaud's or other circulatory issues. If the knee-high 50 degree below socks are too toasty, look to the calf-high 40 degree below ones!

Rosemary

These socks are comfortable, thick and soft. If there was a lighter weight for summer that would be terrific too. I am so pleased that they are Canadian made from a sustainable source.

David

I wear an AFO on my left foot. As a result I need a knee high sock as my orthotic comes up almost to my knee. I have found it very hard to find knee high socks. The last ones I got from McGreggor were terrible as they developed holes in a short period of time. The merino wool executive socks I purchased from you are very comfortable and it looks like they will wear properly. I intend to purchase a few more pairs.

Omg. Awesome awesome socks. Feel great. Look great. Warm and cozy. Im tempted to order a whole bunch more. You never can have too many excellent socks. I highly recommend. I have big feet and they fit perfect. Cant wait until winter to really test them out.

This is the first year I have discovered and researched the benefits of Merino. When I discovered Great Sox, it's long history and in my home Toronto I had to check them out. The quality is fantastic. The hiker gx is exactly as described, breathable, a great temperature range to cover the seasons, and the unbelievable feel of "non-itchy" merino. Very reasonable cost for great quality, a win-win! A big shout-out to David who patiently guided me through my errors and made it a pleasurable experien...

J.B.Field’s Best of Hiking Wool Socks - Assorted 3 PK

Becky

This is my everyday sock all winter: not too hot, but just enough warmth that my feet don't get cold while I work from home in my slippers. It's also my main hiking sock: just a touch of wool for warmth if I step in a mountain stream, but not too hot for summer hiking. They stay up well. I buy large. I'm a men's shoe 8 extra wide; women's 10. I like my socks loose enough to be able to wiggle my toes easily but still no wrinkling in the shoe. These are perfect.

I’ve only washed them once (I bought a lot ) so I can’t comment in the quality yet , but they are lovely so far and the customer service and shipping are fabulous !

Rod

These 98% wool socks are great. Socks bought in stores always seem to have a lot of non natural content and were too tight at the top. You end up each day with a "ring" mark around your calves. These wool socks solved the problem and are warm and comfortable.

Customer photo review of J.B. Field's Icelandic "30 Below Classic" Merino Wool Thermal Socks (Assorted 3PK) -- SLIGHTLY IMPERFECT

Ioana

Very warm and soft, thick and cushion-y, indeed non-binding. Came in different colours than in the picture. Hardly noticeable aesthetic imperfections. Because they're a medium size [I wear ladies' 8 1/2 shoes] they were a tad loose, and tend to slide down to the ankle if not held firmly in a lace-up boot [my feet did not feel compressed, despite the socks' thickness]. However, when I ordered the small size [regular order], the fit was perfect, and the socks kept my feet toasty warm! DO turn the...

J.B. Field’s Icelandic "30 Below Classic" Merino Wool Thermal Socks (Assorted 3PK) -- SLIGHTLY IMPERFECT

Miranda

I love this Japanese toe separated socks. Espcecially, when I am wearing flip-flops in summer time. I am wondering if there will be one for winter. I know it's hard to do with thicker material. Maybe the material for holding the toes can remain thin. Or, have material that can keep sweaty feet dry and odourless. Oh well, just a thought. I think this type of socks is good for people with the big toe problem of bending inwards. It's more healthy when the big toe can be separated slightly. By the w...

Over the years these sox have become the only sox for me. I have them for all seasons and activities. They are also my go-to gift. Everyone that gets a gift from me knows that there will be a pair of great sox added in.

A bundle of socks for every activity in one package! Love all the Great Sox I have and have also given them as gifts. I try to buy gifts that are useful and it's always a bonus when you can support Canadian products and companies.

They are extremely soft. I found them to be perfect for wearing with casual and sport shoes in late spring and very early fall. They are very comfortable and come in lovely pastel colors.
