Socks

I have just bought a two pair pack of Endura Baa Baa merino wool socks from my LBS, and can highly recommend them for comfort and fit. Not a great deal of padding, but surprisingly warm in the cold and very good at wicking away sweat when it gets sticky.

i just use the 1s free i got with shoes, even have left and right wrote on them for if i get confused will be getting some thicker ones though as my feet were getting cold until i realised they had a flipping air vent on bottom

Thanks guys, some good suggestions there.

Hopefully cold feet won't be a problem soon and you'll be glad of those vents

I'll recommend the Aldi ones - use them every day on commute.

Road bikes/weekend, it's any reasonable cycling sock - Decathlon do a good range, or the Aldi ones.

Winter it's overshoes as well to keep warm.

Vented shoes are the key though, especially as the weather warms up. Trainers can make your feet get very smelly - I've never had that problem with cycling shoes - they 'should' keep your feet well vented.

I am not by ANY MEANS advocating the company or the athlete, but I swear by these: http://www.store-laf.org/socks.html

I have 6 pairs and I have noticed a tremendous level of support. Another great place: http://www.sockguy.com/

During cooler rides I use Northwave thermolite cycling socks, and warmer weather I use Endura coolmax socks.
