These are some of my favorite socks. I wish they had a little more elasticity to them, but I only think about that for about a half second when I put them on. I ride through all the puddles, they dry, they don't smell, they have held up really well over time, and I don't just wear them on the bike. I frequently wear them to work, but then I get distracted thinking about how excited I am to go ride after work so... beware of that side effect.
