Strengths:    wool, comfy, ahhhh

Weaknesses:    swobo went out of business and I will probably never find another pair

Bottom Line:   
I am hopelessly in love with these socks. Unfortunately, I only bought two pairs when I had the chance, so I wash them frequently. I wear them everywhere.

Weaknesses:    
None


Bottom Line:   
These socks are the best. You can wear them for over a week and the still don't smell. I haven't had a single problem with my socks and I wear them on the bike, off the bike, whenever. Swobo is the bomb. I only wish I could wear my Swobos in SF.

Date Reviewed: December 17, 1999

Strengths:    
Good fit, soft and comfortable.
They keep my toes nice and toasty even on wet winter rides.
Do not absorb foot odor as other socks do.
No shrinkage


Weaknesses:    
Am having some balling of the fabric, not a big deal though...


Bottom Line:   
Great sock for the price, no problems with shrinking when washed, get them unless you like cold numb toes when riding...Haven't tried them in hot whether though, but come on it's San Francisco, there is no real summer here...

Bottom Line:   


Hey anyone looking for a great pair of socks for YEAR ROUND USE check out a pair of Swobo socks. I have 5 pairs of these bad boys. I use them for rides as well as everyday use. They are soft, warm, and best of all don't stink. There are some natural properties of wool, when it comes to foot oder. They are more way trick and you don't have to worry about everyone having the same socks on those weekend rides.
