      I’ve had pretty good luck with People Socks, they have some pretty decent Merino socks. Got a 4 pack about 5-6 years ago, finally got a few small holes this past winter after a few years of heavy use. Soft, warm, and breathable (mostly just because they’re a good Merino blend), pretty worth the price. I’ve also tried darn tough, and while they are decent (dress socks, but still) I usually prefer the people socks. Just remember not to dry them in a drier.

      Darn tough will give your socks a lifetime warranty. I’ve sent a few socks in that got holes, but most of these last longer than other brands, I just happen to walk a lot.

      Darn Tough. The hold up pretty well, but they also have (caveat: I haven’t had to invoke it in a while) a lifetime pretty much no questions asked replacement warranty.

      I’ve heard great things about Balega but I don’t own any.

      I don’t like wearing socks at all outside of winter so I get the thinnest pairs possible for when shoes are required. I just checked for the brand on my favorite winter pair but there’s no label to be found!
