Tell us your Wigwam sock story:

ROCK OF AGES! SOCK OF AGES!

We get some pretty amazing stories and images sent to us, where our socks made all the difference in an event or situation. We would love to hear yours.
Here is a recent story and a somewhat blurry image from a dedicated Wigwam sock wearer.
Howdy, I wanted to let you guys know that a few weeks ago I went for a hike and dropped my boots (ok, failed to throw them completely across a stream) and could not recover them from a down stream waterfall.  This was over 3 miles from the car while hiking the Gorge in Oregon, so I had to hike out "sans boots".

I ended up hiking, in your socks with a bit of duct tape, on a decently rough trail and had no problems with my feet. They stayed warm in the 40 degree rain and I did not get any cuts.  In any case, I thought I'd share as your socks now adorn my wall of things I've used until they can't be used anymore.  The socks actually could be used again, but look cooler hanging there being muddy.    -Sam

My story isn't about your socks, but it is about how I learned the importance of good socks.

One time I went hiking in sneakers without any socks on. I went hiking with my Dad at Rocky Mountain National Park, near Wild Basin. I did not think we were going to spend the entire day on a hike. Needless to say, by the end of the day, my feet were blistery and smelly. I had to throw away the shoes too. It was that experience that taught me the importance of good socks.

I love their socks. They are fabulous and last forever. I only wish I could buy direct from their site. With other "sock" sites, I'm never quite sure what I'm going to get. I would feel much safer buying direct from the company that makes such a fine product.

I think this post sold me on your socks. I plan on ordering some today. I had been using Nike sport socks and they are the worst socks I've ever purchased. I bought a 3-pack of Nike women's quarter sport socks less than a month ago and they are already worn through the bottom! I've worn them each maybe 3 or 4 times!!! Can't wait til I have a pair of Wigwams on my feet. :)
