Howdy folks,

Being kilted at high latitude has it's challenges,as many of our Canadian members will attest. I've done plenty of comparisons as I pick hose for the 8 months of winter in Duluth, MN. I'm pleased to say that Cabelas Wool Wader socks are excellent for field use below 30 degrees F. They're not suited for dress, nor quite as tough as some of the knitted styles from the motherland, but they can't be beat for the $15 price tag. I've got 8 pair of hose in my drawer, and the 3 from Cabelas are getting plenty of use off pavement.

RIT dye does wonders to the bland grey/green hue the manufacturer chose.

Cheers,

Kevin.
