No athlete's foot or abrasions through wool socks
Again and again, I had trouble with athlete's foot and skin abrasions or something similar. Especially since I'm at work almost all day on my legs. I once used cotton socks exclusively. In the new state, they are cuddly soft, washed and sweaty, they are really scratchy.
Not so wool socks. What is meant are not woolen socks, but Norway socks, also called health socks. Best with about 10% microfiber content. These are also available in a lightweight, summer-proof design. This version, however, may only be available online or at the fair.
They are more comfortable to wear. Especially useful for hiking. In addition, they do not pollute like cotton socks and come out of the washing machine almost dry. If you've been using cotton socks since then, that's a real tip in every sense.
