    Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Summit Socks, 2-Pack:

    I train dogs and am outdoors with them summer and winter. These are the only socks I wear anymore, tried others, but these are the best. I get the largest ones and they shrink a bit in the dryer...only wear seems to be at the heel, and I have pairs that I have mended and have worn for 5 or 6 years now! PRICY but quality almost justifies it!

    Best Uses

    Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Summit Socks, 2-Pack:

    These are comfortable and the warmest socks that I have come accross. They are good for outdoor winter use. It is also great to wear them around the house during cold season, especially on tiles or hardwood floors. You just need to wash them inside out the 1st few times to get rid of the loose lint. I have bought dozens of pairs for myself and others. Highly recommend!

    Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Summit Socks, 2-Pack:

    Pretty nice socks. I am always trying different brands for our big family of hikers/backpackers. These are as good as any of the others and better than some in some respects:

    1) They fit very well-probably due to the nylon and spandex.

    2) The colored heel and toe make it easy to keep organized from other similar socks.

    3) They seem to be wearing extremely well in the heel. I will let you know in a couple of years.

    4) They pill like crazy which I consider to be a plus as it indicates to me that there is the right proportion of wool to the other reinforcing materials like nylon and spandex. This is only noticeable when you put them on.

        Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Summit Socks, 2-Pack:

        These socks feel like little pillows for my feet! They're very comfy to wear around the house, but also very warm to wear on snowy hikes or walking around the city in the winter. They're thick, so some of my shoes are a little tight with them, so plan to wear them with roomier boots. As a woman, I found them to be a little big, but I'm hoping they'll shrink a bit over time. They don't sag, but I do have to pull the heel beyond my heel so they fit. I would still recommend them though!

          Comments about Eastern Mountain Sports EMS Summit Socks, 2-Pack:

          I've been wearing these socks for close to 15 years..except for the heel they last and last. Very soft and cushiony. I wish they came in Small..I think they used to since some of my 8 or so pairs are smaller and shorter(I wear size 5 shoe). They do shrink a bit in the dryer which helps.
          Also wish I could buy just red ones..but at least there is some color. All in all great socks!!

                  These are the best socks available by far. They're the only socks I wear summer or winter. I often give them as gifts because people are guaranteed to love them once they try them.

                  I used it as a third layer. It over 2 other pairs of medium weight socks plus a foot warmer. The socks did great but as I slipped my boots off and on the socks seemed to stretch a bit. They were comfortable and kept my feet warm in the cold. Outside temp in Harbin, China around -17C to -24C.
                  My whole family had a pair of these socks.

                  This has been my footwear of choice for the past 30 years. Unfortunately my local EMS retail outlet seems to have stopped carrying this model and I notice that on line sizes are limited. Please don't let this classic leave your shelves. There's no reason for experimenting; this is fundamentally one of the best socks on the market.
