“I live on 167 wooded acres in the crown of Maine. Our state bird is a toss-up between the black fly and the mosquito and our state insect is the deer tick. I bought these socks hoping they would be somewhat effective. They are 100% effective. I've not had a bite even when I've been bushwacking. As soon as I came home from my first hike, I ordered four more pairs. They are spectacular.”
“I like tick protection on my feet because I assume ticks come in that door. I liked the look and feel of these socks. They are soft and have obvious bug repellent smell. However, they are not breathable and my feet were getting hotter the longer I hiked.”
“I live on 167 wooded acres in the Crown of Maine. These socks - and all of the insect shield products - keep me free from ticks, black fly, mosquito and heaven knows what else throughout our pesky critter season. Love them.”
“My husband loves these socks and doesn’t go outside without them. They hold up beautifully to washing and still look like new. I have bought a variety is styles and sizes of IS socks and keep them in a drawer in our guest room for visitors. It gives me peace of mind to know our guests won’t be taking ticks home!”
“These socks are the perfect weight and fit for boots or a pair of good walking shoes. They are well made and launder nicely. I put them on air fluff, then hang dry as with all my sock to preserve spandex life. Very happy with them,”
“I know have three pair of these socks snd they are great. Very comfy on the feet snd keep the skeeters from biting my ankles when I work in the yard! I have bought several items from I sect Shield snd have been super happy with them all. I can wear them any wear snd look appropriate. They fit snd look great. I can definitely recommend!”
