There are two things you probably don't know about me: 1. I wear your camp socks exclusively during these colder months, so props on that and 2. I'm not as big of a sweater-phile as these other bloggers. Anyhow, I recently got a pair of your new lightweight marled cotton/acrylic/nylon made in the USA socks in authentic red. Obviously, they are now my favorite pair of socks I have ever owned. My question is this, can you guys make a sweater out of these? I don't care if it's the same fabric blend or 100% wool. That doesn't matter to me. What matters is getting more of this incredible marled "authentic red" in my wardrobe. Seriously, it is that boss in person, but you probably already knew that. I'm thinking a boatneck knit or maybe a crewneck. But, ultimately, that doesn't really matter either. If you guys can make that happen I'd pay handsomely for the results. I'll keep my eyes peeled, but won't hold my breath.
Cheers,
Lawrence

Agree wholly. Shawl would'nt hurt either, yeah? PS - this is @penguinpbks BTW, fan of the blog; the voice.
ReplyDeleteI am wearing that exact pair of socks right now. Amazing color
ReplyDeleteDude, yes. I couldn't agree more with you. These socks are the truth.
ReplyDeleteEnough about socks and shit you crazy mother. And enough say "x is the truth". How can they be the truth if your just giving us your opinion on this shit?
ReplyDeletedude, you gotta go wool man. Fits Sock Co or Smartwool is where its at!
ReplyDeleteOr Wigwam socks for a good made in the USA option.
ReplyDeleteHow you expect anyone to take you seriously when you treat cotton blends and wool as an "either, or" is a mystery to me. Too much time shopping at the JCs and LECs of the world, I suspect -- cotton sweater sucker deals are a favorite trick of the overpriced "bargain" brands.
Don't worry, Frank is watching.
ReplyDeleteLAS I picked up this same pair a couple weeks ago and you obviously copied me. Even if people hate on the crew for not being authentic outdoorsy sock shit, they do better color combos on the socks than any "real" camp brand, and the shit's made in Vermont so whatevs.
ReplyDeleteI'm all about authenticity but these socks are so great that I just don't give a shit about the blend of the fabric. Especially when I get them for 75% off for working there.
ReplyDeletebest socks in the world and like Angelo said, MADE IN VERMONT. Doesn't get better than that.
ReplyDeleteThose look like my grandmother's candy cane cookies. I'm getting in the mood...
ReplyDeleteA couple weeks ago I had to pull over on the highway to defecate. I didn't want to drop a bomb right on the shoulder, so off came my camp sock. I just held the sock wide open while I squatted down and released a solid turd. Little to no break. Case in point, that these things absorb even the filthiest messes.
ReplyDeletezara...seem very simliar:

I only wear Fox River socks. That's where it's at in my opinion. They're made in the USA and make great warm socks! Plus, I like the look of their ragg socks that were in GQ Magazine.
ReplyDeleteThey have sweaters at H&M that look like this, in this color! No boat neck tho, they have a button-up placket.
ReplyDeleteA good marled red crewneck from Levis.

ReplyDeleteHere I am in the previously mentioned H&M sweater. http://yrfkt.com/redsweater.jpg
ReplyDeleteThe neck's kind of weird. Model in-store had it buttoned up like a turtle neck with some atrocious look on his face, but I would not recommend that styling.
They have those sweaters at both H&M and Zara this season, shawl collar I believe
