Comments: I wanted two pairs of Ex Officio socks impregnated with insecticide. This pair is a different style from the first pair I bought (Ex Officio Hiker Socks--Buzz Off). Since I wasn't familiar with Ex Officio socks, I figured I'd spread the wealth. However, these two sock styles are very similar. Both are midweight. Both wick. Both have bug juice. Both are comfortable. I haven't field-tested either pair yet. However, I would not go out on a day hike with either pair without also wearing a pair of sock liners, if for no other reason than for the extra padding and to fill out your hiking boots. The main reason to buy these socks is because they repel insects. Otherwise, their list price seems wildly overinflated.
