free socks? for a lifetime?

No kidding. After you buy the first pair
Icebreaker. The best socks ever.
Lifetime guarantee.
I have worn this brand for a year, never want to be without them.
Icebreaker has a fantastic product line, amongst other virtues.
You can even track the wool to the group of sheep that donated to the cause.
This product line is worth checking into.
Me: no affiliation, just an fyi.



Icebreaker

Been wearing them for years, and I love 'em!

I've got an icebreaker cycling jersey that's the ****. Warm as toast in the winter, good looking to boot. Had it for a few seasons and it's still like brand new.

"Darn Toughs" are the same way, but made in the USA. I got 5 pair four years ago before a deployment and still wear them. I got some more a couple years later and honestly can't tell which ones are two years older, they just don't wear out. I've hiked hundreds of miles with them and there aren't even the remotest sign of holes. I never get blisters either. These socks have outlasted four pairs of boots.

They aren't the cheapest, but I can't see myself using anything else.

As far as Icebreaker goes, I love their stuff also. I use their merino base layers and lightweight tops. I'm probably addicted to merino wool.

Me too! Absolutely love the stuff. Socks and base layer of merino wool - I'm good to go anywhere. Bought a merino wool blanket for our bed. Nearly gave my husband a heart attack when he saw what they cost!!!

Like to think I'm worth it - LOL!

i wear icebreaker on the bicycle, as well.
fantastic shorts and jerseys. love the 3/4 length shorts.
i have one of almost everything(nice) that they sell. gotta have 2500 worth.
some of the product is too "eddie bauer"-ish(in style). imho.
the expensivo merino wool overcoat is to die for.
