link related the socks I wear everyday they are 80% wool we don't get jewed out of good wool here in New Zealand and have cheap plastic fiber replacements cause we have a lot of sheep, 20$ for a pair is 1 hour of minimum wage here and they last for years so you cant say they are too expensive either
