[pct-l] Hiking Socks

[Hiker97 at aol.com]

I am starting to use Thor-Lo Medds  socks.  They are for diabetics, but I 
think they might have wonderful  hiking applications too.  They cost about $40 
for two pair in a box.   I got mine at the Foot Solutions store here in Las 
Vegas.
 
They are VERY comfortable.  I  got the Low Risk type in black and white.  
There are very special washing  instructions for these socks too.
 
In any case, I find wearing  them nice with my MBT shoes.  They are made of 
85% acrylic, 12% nylon,  and 3% spandex.  The box mentions that you might have 
to buy a larger size  shoe with these socks, since they have a lot of cushion.
