Hanes crew socks. All the alternatives just don't feel good on my feet.

That's interesting because Hanes is a "cheap" brand to me. I've never had socks that properly fit my feet my entire life and recently I treated myself to some Feetures and holy shit I'll never wear another brand of socks again.

Yeah, I don't pretend that they're premium socks or anything, they're just not the generic socks that're like, "value premium" or whatever store brand sock. Or even just the unlabeled.

Socks are another good answer, but there, it’s nothing but gold toe for me. They’re just so comfortable.
