could someone post a link to some good PT and dress socks. I looked online forever and could not find any white PT socks that weren't cotton and didn't have logos on the ankle that didn't at least cost $12+ a pair. I have been told that it is a bad idea to buy expensive socks considering the chances of then getting lost. Thanks!
Your laundry goes into personal bags, it's not like it's mixed in with everyone else's.
DS and friends does see occasional lost/delayed bags, but they usually find their way home. IE: It's more important to have enough than to worry about losing them.
Supposedly people are finding Thorlo's at TJ Max occasionaly. Likewise,
Sierra Trading Post can have deals, here are some for $7/pr. Don't know if they are the best choice for you, just an example similar to what DS has found useful.
BTW, this took me under a minute to search and find the $7 thorlos.... just sayin
Socks, underwear, and undershirts are about the only things worth getting exactly what you want for CBT/plebe year as you'll be in them daily, not having enough stinks (literally), and the USMA options are tolerable, but are far less useful/comfortable. Most do not find the current issue boot and dress socks that useful!
If you don't like the name brand prices hit wally world and buy generic. They have generic underarmor type shorts and briefs, etc. Socks are a bit harder to find cheap, as it's more expensive to make a thorlo type construction.
If you can tolerate wool it's a great option, but many find even "smartwool" itchy during summer and lean more toward the various synthetics.
