Modern WWII style GI Socks?

I'm not sure how many reenactors out there care about what kind of socks they wear, but for those who do these might work. I was after something that basically had a military style look, and I don't know of anyone who makes a dead on reproduction of WWII socks. These aren't really reproductions in anyway but I thought they have a good look and these are made in the USA. I purchased these from a website called Sock Dreams (http://www.sockdream...ry-bootsocks:77). Out of the box I like these alot better than the ones offered by What Price Glory (http://onlinemilitar...p?id=2603&bc=no) that I bought a year or two ago. Time will tell how these hold up. What do you guys think? FARBY looking?

 

 

Color is a bit lighter in person.

In my opinion is better to use 100% cotton than socks with a lot of petrol derivades.

Also is better for the wealth of your feets
