Where do you buy your socks? More than suits, shirts, ties, this is the difference maker for me these days.

Darn tough merino wool dress socks. 20 bucks a pair but worth it for two reasons: lifetime warranty and merino is anti microbial- they won’t smell if you get in a bind and have to wear them a couple times in a row when on the road

@A1 I don't think black socks go with all outfits. Do you only wear dark navy/charcoal pants (assuming not black)?

I wear almost exclusively navy/grey slacks at work. Works even with blue jeans or lighter grey pants. It probably wouldn’t look any good with khakis but nobody wears khakis in FS

Bombas has been good to me

SmartWool - City Slacker, all the way! They’re merino so they breathe well and there’s a 2 year replacement guarantee if they wear out

I buy 6 packs of plain black socks off amazon every couple months and FIFO some of the older ones in my drawer. Fully team black socks these days - can wear with any shoe/pant combination and no need to bother with matching. I find newness is more important than overall sock quality/cost when considering overall comfort
