In this video, I compare expensive Merino wool socks vs cheap ones. I purchased a lot of different affordable Merino wool hiking socks to see if I could find a viable alternative to my expensive Merino wool socks. And I noticed that I get a lot fewer blisters when wearing my expensive Silverlight and Darn Tough Merino wool socks.
