Customer photo review of Vagden "No Ordinary Sock" Merino Wool Knee-High Cushion Sole Sock

Mathieu

Keeping in mind that I've only owned these for 3 weeks during the PNW heatwave of 2021: - they are very comfortable and not itchy at all. - By contrast with the J.B. Field's Military Wool socks I bought at the same time, they are less cushioned and thinner all around. Which I don't think is a downside as it makes them easier to wear in non-hiking boots. - they feel sturdy, I have rather big calves and have had merino wool socks from other brands tear apart when I pull them on, so I've become ...

These are the same socks in red (wearing at the moment). Same as the green and fabulous socks. I’m 68 and comfortable socks are important to me. That’s why I bought two more pairs in green. And I’ll be buying more. They’re so great.

Quite happy with my sock purchases! So happy to have found a sock company in Canada. Who knew? I was in Jasper last week, and recommended you guys to 3 stores. Two of them were quit interested! Most of us have no idea we can produce socks. I had purchased socks from one of the stores there last year, an American brand and frightening expensive. Sock if these stores will sell your socks it's a win win for all, especially those who live there! Thanks so much!

Last winter I searched without luck for warm knee socks. These really do go over my knees but I prefer to wear them just below. They are so soft and warm.

I decided to try these for hunting, but I wanted to test them before bringing them into the field. I work construction from extreme heat to extreme cold. I wanted to test the warmth and anti-microbial and moisture wicking etc, as gross as it may sound I had to test these. I went 5 days of work ,after work ,all weekend and the Monday for work, so 8 days total, my wife stepped in after that lol.They had no foul smell at all (I do have to say I don’t suffer from smelly feet though)they were always ...

I contacted customer service to ask what sock they recommend for heavy hiking boots in the summer. They recommended these. They are probably the best feeling sock I have put on. I'm certain they will be my new go to sock for the mountains.

I really love these organic cotton socks and plan to buy many more in the near future. I have been looking for a while for a sock that is made in Canada , has a nice cushion all the way around and feels just right ! Thank you J.B. Fields and Greatsox!

My husband has several pairs of the hiker socks in both lengths and loves them. He just purchased two pairs of ‘SOCK OF THE WEEK’ Low Cut Ankle Sock- Grey. Thrilled with them. Comfortable, soft and really wear well. He’s hard on socks, heels are always the first to go. These socks stand up! Thank You… Lesley Kelley.

I love these socks! They’re comfortable, durable, easy to slip on and they don’t leave little black bits on the floor. I bought some earlier that are still in great shape and now bought more to replace some bamboo socks that I bought around the same time as the earlier socks.

My husband received a pair last year for Christmas and I didn’t know which company they came from. Long story short I am so glad I found the source. He was very happy to get two more pairs.

Customer photo review of 3 PAIR - J.B. Field's "Hiker GX" Merino Wool Hiking Sock (SLIGHTLY IMPERFECT)

Ioana

I love these socks: they're very versatile, tight enough in the right places to not slip or stretch or bunch, but not binding, breathe easily, and are suitable for most weathers, from Summer to Winter. They are also enduring and wear well: the pairs I've had for years are just as good and thick as the newest ones. I've noticed no difference between the seconds and the regulars.

I just got these and first wear, they are great. FYI though, pink and light pink are exactly the same. I would not have bought 2 of the same colour.

These socks are the best ones I've tried yet. They keep my feet dry after wearing boots for 10-12 hour shifts. Very comfortable and no odor. Highly recommend this product!

Customer photo review of J.B. Field's Hiking "Summer Hiker" Merino Wool Low-Cut Sock

Anlina

These are my favourite summer socks, maybe my favourite socks, period. The cushioned sole and mesh top are very comfy, not too warm in hot weather, and they don’t add too much bulk inside shoes. The wool is very soft, not at all itchy. The high wool content makes these very odour resistant - I could probably wear one pair for multiple days in a row. They are very stretchy but have the right amount of structure. They don’t feel tight or binding, just secure on my feet. They don’t slide down o...

Got my family some JB Fields socks for Christmas and grabbed myself a pair of these while I was at it. Definitely the comfiest socks I've ever owned! I was used to cheap $15 packages of socks, and I don't think I can go back to wearing those now. Honestly amazing. Already planning on ordering more!

Customer photo review of Run Lightweight No-Show Ankle Socks - by Injinji

I love these socks because they feel so soft on my feet and keep my toes aligned properly. I have what is known as 'flexible hammertoes' and these socks keep the toes separated and able to flatten out more than regular socks. These socks are great when teaching my Essentrics classes as they wick moisture away from my feet so they stay comfortable.

Customer photo review of J.B. Field's Casual "Wool Weekender" 96% Merino Wool Sock

Kirstin

The Weekender (on the right in photo) is a little shorter and thinner than the "Thermal Heavy Wool" sock (on the left); but I find that it fits better. It is my favourite sock of all! I've tried '30 Below', '40 Below' and 'Heavy Wool'; but my vote is for the Weekender! Super comfortable, nice fit and good warmth. I have Raynaud's sydrome and need to double up socks in the winter but I can do that with this sock and it still fits well.

I use them all the time. For work, for hikes, and they are comfortable. I hope they come up with some more bright 90's colours. Like lime green. Lol

Jacqueline

I am super-fussy about socks, but my regular brand no longer exist. I tried 1 pair of these J.B. Field's Athletic "Bamboo Sport Crew" Socks and I must say I like them! I bought them in winter, so they are just a tad heavier than I am used to (not a bad thing). I am planning to stock up on more. They don't slide down (one of my sock pet peeves) and are comfortable.

I tried my first 96% Merino wool socks from JB Fields, awesome overall socks.On the photo in the back wearing my Icelandic -30 socks, which are great for a canadian winter. Obviously had to try the -20 and the -40 socks as well... By the way, I had an issue with another pair, so contacted customer service. They resolved my issue without any hesitation. That's the way you have to treat your loyal customers. Highly recommended!

This sock feels like a blanket for my feet. These socks are so warm and comfortable. I have a problem with very cold feet. I have to wear these socks both inside the house outside. They work 97% of the time, which is the only sock I have ever found to even come close to this success rate for me

Justine

I'm very happy with these socks! I work very hard to buy Made in Canada clothing items, but socks were being quite elusive - so glad I found these! The fabric is comfortable and the fit is great. I've washed them several times now and they stand up well to washer and dryer with no change in fit. I definitely recommend them!

I Love all the beautiful warm wool socks that I purchased for the first time from The Great Sock Shop carries. Great quality and beautiful colours and varieties. I love that they have larger sizes for men. Makes great stocking stuffer gifts and great for year round. I also love the option of no packaging as well more eco and green friendly. Great service.

This is my second purchase from Great Sox. I have been getting the bamboo socks for running, and I also got some hiking ones. The running ones are amazing. They are soft and keep my feet fresh and dry. After using just for running I am starting to use them at all times now. I placed the order with a "no packaging" option, and it was so goof to see all the items put together in a single mail bag: no extra plastic that would immediately go to waste. Definitely a major discovery, and happy to make ...

Customer video review of J.B. Field's Icelandic "40 Below Arctic Trail" Wool Thermal Sock

Sara

I love them. I have been wearing them like slippers at home constantly since I got them a few weeks ago. They are a lot softer than I expected- they feel more like merino wool - and super thick. I will wear them in boots if it gets cold out. I also have the ankle version and love them as well. I want to gift them to friends

The socks are my all time favourite sock. They are cozy, warm, form fitting, and stylish. I have every colour. They are also my number one gifting idea! Nothing says LOVE like cozy feet.

These are, literally, the greatest socks on the face of the earth. Not too hot, not too cold. Comfortable with the perfect band that is not too tight and not too loose. Even my husband concedes these may be the greatest. They also make my sandals year round shoes!

Bought a 3 PAIR - J.B. Field's "Hiker GX" Merino Wool Hiking Sock - SLIGHTLY IMPERFECT, and will buy more. The BEST socks around [except in v. cold weather], and not just for hiking! They're soft, medium-thick, fleecy inside, stay put and don't wrinkle inside your shoes, don't slide down, breathe readily/ not sweaty, and once on, they're so comfortable you forget you're wearing them. Perfect and multi-purpose. Sure, the colours weren't great [grey-olive, stripey grey], but who cares? No one sees...

We are very happy to support a company that makes items in Canada. My husband is very pleased with the quality, comfort, style and fit of this underwear. Working 10-12 hour shifts and walking up to 20,000 steps a day he finds them so much more comfortable then any other brand underwear. We will definitely be buying some more.

Tim

Needless to say I like my merino wool 30 below socks. I have previously purchased lots of socks from Smart wool, Cabelas, Gander Mountain and others only their prices have moved up as their quality has moved down. I love cold weather hiking and hunting am always looking for high quality socks. Apart from great comfort these socks are slightly loose fitting around the ankle and calf. A big plus for good circulation if you hike/hunt all day.

This is a photo of my new pair of J. B. Field's socks next to the pair I bought over 16 years ago. I am a women's US 9 and the one size fits many works well for me, albeit they only fit under my largest winter boots (they are a little big but nice and lofty). Best winter socks I've ever bought and worth every penny.
