    Do they sell the "Extreme Copper" version and are they the same price?

        The Lowes and Targets I've been to have the "Copper" sock but I've yet to find the "Extreme Copper" one.

          Im near macquarie park, I didn't think to try the lowes there, but the target only had one pair, and their own brand, which look similar but feel like shoving my foot in sand paper. thanks for the hint

          I guess ill go a sock hunting tomorrow :)

      Your sock-buying memory is better than my life memory. That's embarrassing.

      These are not good to wear snowboarding/skiing, your feet will hate you! Alright for just wearing casually though. Football socks are the way to go for hitting the slopes.

    Huh, the current Harris Scarfe catalogue has explorer socks at 1pr for $9 and 3 for $20; claiming that the original cost is $14.95 each. Whereas Big W says the original cost is $16.92 for a two pack.

    Do you think Harris Scarfe is a little generous with its 'regular' pricing?

      HS is the most guilty when it comes to stated RRP.

      Everything seems to be $80 RRP, we sell for $15.95.

    Last time I bought a bunch of pairs of Holeproof Explorer (from regular retailers BigW & Target) I found out the quality has dropped significantly, they were all very tight & stretchy, took ages to get on, wasn't as comfortable :( I think they've cheapened out on their QC

    These socks are so good that I don't need to claim any of these deals coz all the pairs I bought long ago are still in good nick.

    Best I've seen them any time recently was 2 pairs for $11 (at Woolies, couple of times a year) so this is pretty good.

    I sure wish women's explorers would come up on special a bit more often.

    Wasn't sure what to get so I just got a pack of cotton blend to try out

    How good are these when they are worn in work boots? Do they last long?

    •  
      Themojorising on 24/08/2012 - 01:23

      Im still wearing the pair of holeproof explorers I bought 6 years ago.

        TieNN89 on 24/08/2012 - 18:58

        in Steel Cap Boots?

        Well considering you bought them 6 years ago it's probably more like 3 years now considering nothing is made to last now days :(

    •  
      kammo on 24/08/2012 - 11:27

      cotton isn't as durable and is more likely to pong. for socks in general i've found cotton is more likely to cause blisters when they lose their shape after too many washes.

        TieNN89 on 24/08/2012 - 18:58

        So I take it Wool is the better one to get then?

        I'll get some over the weekend if I get a chance
