I have used them for years for cycling in the Fall/Winter, and more recently bought them for my daughters and their boyfriends. All agree the Woolie Boolies are great! They hold up for years, so definitely a worthwhile purchase.
Hiking, biking, jogging, and walking around, I use Woolie Boolies all the time. Recommended to me by a gentleman at 3 Ring Cycles, he said it was the only socks he wore, I took it with a grain of salt but bought two pairs anyway. Thought they were expensive for my budget, after getting an expensive bike, everything seems expensive. Was ready to buy more Woolie Boolies, because I really like them, but the bike shop is no longer around so I turned to BikeTiresDirect, where I have been buying bike parts from for many, many years. Woolie Boolies are comfortable (I am easily irritated by most socks and shoes) and they keep my feet dry (unlike most socks worn all day long). Wish I could thank the gentleman from 3 Ring Cycles. I do very much like my Wolie Boolies and will continue buying them, once they wear out, which takes several years.
My first pair of Woolies have been with me for over a decade and have probably seen 100 rides and washes. They almost look as good today- but i wanted a new pair of the higher socks. Same high quality of a decade ago. These are the go to for comfort and warmth during those cooler spring and fall rides
Woolie Boolies are great socks! Short height, long height, it doesn't matter. They can be an every day socks and then can go on the bike. I find them comfortable all the way up to the mid 60 degrees. Perfect for commuting in spring and fall , when it cool in the AM and warmer later in the day.
I purchased four pairs of DeFeat's Woolie Boolie 6 inch socks for using during the winter riding and hiking season. With the extra padding on the foot, nice seam stitching, and all around high-quality construction, these are recommended for anyone going outdoors, or those looking for added warmth around the house. The socks wear well, do not pull or lose their sizing. The socks' front is nice and square, thus making it not binding within a cycling, hiking, or walking shoe.
Wear them for late fall and winter bicycle riding. The sock is reasonably priced, easy to put on and remove, has great support, has just the right amount of thickness and is warm.
DeFeet Woolley Bullies are the best wool socks I have experience. Made with high-quality wool, just the right amount of give, and for some reason these socks shape to your feet with a type of memory. Love them for a medium wool sock and work with biking applications also.
