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.

Good fit, soft and comfortable.

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

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.
