What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I've worn a lot of wool socks, but these hit the sweet spot-plush, warm, and surprisingly durable. The fact that I can toss them in the washer and dryer without a second thought makes them my go-to for cold days. They're thick enough for boots but soft enough to wear around the house." We count on our socks to work as hard as we do when winter sets in, and the L. L. Bean Merino Wool Ragg 10in Sock 2-Pack delivers comfort that lasts. Made in the USA from a heavyweight merino blend, these socks keep our feet warm, cushioned, and itch-free whether we're out hiking snow-covered trails or curled up indoors. What sets these apart is the rare combo of rugged warmth and easy maintenance. They're soft right out of the pack, stretchy in all the right places, and durable enough for season after season of wear. And yes-unlike most wool socks, these go straight into the washer and dryer without shrinking or stiffening up.
