[pct-l] socks

[patti kulesz]

I like the Smartwool Adrenaline socks. But if your feet get hot easy then try the ones with coolmax in them. I think the ones I use for the summer are Wigwam w/coolmax. The Smartwool Adrenalines seem to be the best for me though. They have just enough cushion to keep my feet from hurting. As for the blisters on the outside of your heal. It could be the insole or the shoe...I use the Superfeet. Was using the orange b/c of the cushion on the ball but the arch was giving me blisters with those so I switched to the blues and now no problems so far. Could try tieing them differently as well so your heels don't slip.

What are everyone's thoughts about socks?  Light or medium cushion,  
brand, etc.  I wear light trail shoes.  I tend to get a small blister  
early on a hike on the outside of my heal.  Sorry if this has been  
discussed to death, but tried the search function and it always fails  
(using Safari).
Thanks
