Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Boot Socks

These are the best hiking / wader socks I have ever used. Two pair of these keep my feet toasty warm when wading in water as cold as 35 degrees (last spring on the Bighorn). Use one pair of your regular size, with a second pair one size larger over them for the ultimate in wading comfort!

These are nothing less than the perfect cold climate sock. Turn down your thermostat, save some oil, and be comfortable. You will lay in bed on a frigid night with your feet feeling as if they are covered in warm sand from a beach in the Gulf of Mexico. Perfect for walking down to the kitchen early in the morning to make your coffee. Worth every penny, in fact I'd pay twice the cost for these.

I work at a ski resort and although I had a hard time paying almost $18, (a couple of years ago), for a pair of socks, I bit the bullet. I now own 8 pair! They are incredibly durable, warm, and they keep your feet dry...most important! I'd buy more, but these just don't wear out! Best ever!!!

These socks are comfortable, well made, and a good value. After two years of wear - they still fit and feel as they did when new. I can't recommend these enough.

When I got my first pair of these socks, I figured they'd loose about 25% of their loft and most of their stretch after a few washings in my machine's brutal "normal" wash cycle. Two years later, after lots of of boot wear and washings, these socks are close to their original state. Even better... they seem to have been designed by someone who uses or at least understands the value of more and less thickness, and elasticity at different places. For my flat feet, the snugness, without bulk, around where my arch should be, feels great.

As the catalog says, they wick away moisture, making them a 5-star rated product even for the summer. Also, they provide that loft that I require for the walking part of my 6-day-a-week workouts, cushioning my feet. Thanks.

Absolutely perfect pair of socks! Fit great with boots, old shoes, and are the best thing going for walking around on cold floors when you don't have slippers.

No complaints yet, however they are wildly overpriced at $30. that should be the price for two pair, not one. They're good socks, but not that good.

I wear these socks almost 100% of the time. However, they tend to wear through quickly in the heel. So, they're not as durable as I'd like for the premium price.

Wore through a lot faster than I'd expect, but very cozy and thick sock. Great warmth!

I like the length. They are warm and comfortable when wearing winter boots.

Soft and nice and thick. Turned over my boots perfectly.

Very heavy and padded. Good for long hikes/ emergency evacuation. Not for gardening. Tops tight.

Great cushion! Quality made socks with excellent cushion and no bunching. Wish they were not quite as tall on the leg but all in all very happy.

Socks are nice and warm. I do not like the color at all. Very green, much more so then the photo.

I have wearing these socks for several years, for all 4 seasons. They are wonderful, however, the quality is less than the original purchase.

A great sock for my boots. Warm and comfortable. The one caveat is that I can't put them in the dryer or they shrink so much that I can't wear them.

Not really impressed with these socks they fill slick on my feet

Quality-made socks; perfect for extremely cold weather. They a very tight even though my husband's cakves are quite thin. I do not dry them in the clothes dryer. Rather, I remove them from the washing machine and pull them over a one-liter plastic milk container to dry and stretch them.

The boot socks feel thinner than pairs I have purchased in the past. That being said they work very well with unlined Bean Boots. I would like to see more color options in the future.

The socks are great and I have several pairs of them that I use a lot. While they did last for a good amount of time before my heel and/or toe poked through, I was hoping they'd have lasted longer esp. at $24.00 a pair. I expect I'll be making another purchase though as they are comfortable in my hiking, work, and Kevlar boots and wear better than other socks I've tried.

I own about 20 pairs of these socks, as I do a lot of garden landscaping & wear them with Bean Boots. Over the years less wool & more nylon has been used to make them. There was a point at which the proportions were really good--you could throw them in the dryer on low without shrinking--but now the socks feel a bit thin & loose; definitely not the nice thick woolies they used to be. I love the LL Bean company & expect quality improvement in the next batch.

Love the thickness and warmth. However, that causes them not to fit in boots or shoes.

Bought these for my husband to wear while shoveling snow or snowmobiling. They are just right for that. The only negative thing is that they are expensive for socks.

These socks are so soft and warm and I love how thick they are and how they cushion the bottom of my feet. The only problem is how tight they are at the very top. Much tighter than necessary unless you have the legs the size of a bird. They leave deep indentations in my calves where the top hits. Other than that I love them!
