Same but i haven’t been able to find a pair that doesn’t get holes in them after 3 years. For the price i would like something that lasts a bit longer.
Currently using bombas but going to try darn tough next.
After going through a bunch of merino socks over several years I'm back to bulk packs of basic wool socks for pretty much all outdoor activity. The $20 a pair merino socks are just not that much better than the 2$ a pair basic wool socks.
Another one of the cool things about woolens is that you can use needle felting[1] to repair holes. TL;DR version, in felt wool fibers get tangled together, with a piece of fluff (aka roving) and a barbed needle you can tangle a patch into place. I have fixed a bunch of sweaters and socks by needle felting, even with pretty big holes in them.
