When I opened the package I wasn't sure what to think of these socks. Blues, greys and black - and for walking? Not really what I was expecting. The letter in the parcel told me I would probably think this, but to try them and see their true potential as the greatest socks ever made.

Initially I forgot about them until last Sunday when my husband insisted we go out for a walk to break in our new walking boots. I remembered about these walking socks and decided to give them a whirl.

Well, now I am converted. These unassuming looking socks are a-maz-ing.

They stayed put while we walked for miles and I came home with NO blisters! My feet were warm the whole time and even the lack of seam made them really comfortable to wear.

I am going to the Lake District in the summer and will be spending a lot of time walking (hence the new boots) so I believe my santa must be psychic - knowing these would be perfect!

Thank you again santa, I am now converted to the ways of these socks and will be tracking some down for my husband!
