These socks feel great and are proving to be heavy duty as well as protective against ticks! I have not had a tick on me since aquiring them and I walk in piney woods on the Blue Ridge Parkway regularly and previously had numerous ticks. This year seems worse than I have ever seen it with all stages of the ticks so we need to use everything we can think of to fight back against these dangerous pests! Thank you, Insect Shield, for your wonderful socks!

I don't know what hiking is like in the eastern US, but in the northwest, we need thick, cushiony socks. These aren't any different than everyday socks!

Great idea Insect Shield!! So far, these socks have kept me tick-free when mowing grass or out in the garden. I can't believe it took me until now to hear about your products thanks to a NYT article. I bought some for my sons who love to hike and am anxious to hear their review. Wonder if maybe socks could come in a little lighter weight for summer as these are a bit warm for summer but will still wear them for sure! Thanks Insect Shield.

These socks fit so well and are so soft and comfortable that they are now my favorite socks in the house, making it easy to remember to wear them during tick seasons. I have purchased multiple pairs for my entire extended family, including friends, because keeping ticks off is so important.

These have been great for me so far. I hike a lot and love to be outside, but I live in the upper northeast (lots of heavily wooded areas and long grass) and am always paranoid about ticks. These give me the peace of mind I needed. I haven’t seen any ticks on my legs since I bought them.

The first time I wore these I came home with a dying tick attached. I haven't even seen any ticks since that time. I need to buy more as these will be my everyday socks during tick season. I wear these with my Insect Shield leggings and I am confident I won't find any ticks during 'tick check'. I would love an extra-thick pair for long hikes.

I bought 2 pairs of these socks to do gardening in New England where we have a lot of ticks. I found them to be perfect. They are soft, light and stay up without a problem. I feel really comfortable working out in the woods with these socks on. I'm about to buy 2 more pair! I highly recommend them!
