    I've bought them in the past, but I put the big toe through in no time.

    Dom, how are you getting on with the Hilly compression socks? I'm torn betwen them & the Craft ones on offer at Wiggle. Are they standing up to running in the wet - or wouldn't you know - do they keep their elasticity after several washes - or wouldn't you know ? Are they meant purely for recovery or do you wear other socks with them - like Hilly monoskin off-road - for running?

    Cheers,

    Ian

    Re: Socks...

    Any recommendations for merino wool socks? Anyone tried any of the ice breaker, I've given up on sealskinz because they get holes in anyway and my feet are wet after 10 mins and then get cold anyway.
