When you are after a decent, heavy-duty hiking/tramping sock its hard to go past a Milford. This sock has all the usual features expected from Norsewear, but its particularly popular with those who are after a broad top band to minimise calf pressure, while still delivering great shin protection when the going gets tough. Some of our customers use the Milford as a work boot sock during the week and a hiking or hunting sock in the weekend. If youre going to do that its probably best to throw them in the wash on a Friday.
