This sock: All-Season warmth, Soft softness
| Feature | Warrior Alpaca | Merino Wool | Cotton |

| Moisture-wicking | Best Pulls sweat away and dries fast | Good Wicks well, dries more slowly | Poor Absorbs sweat and stays wet |
| Odor resistance | Best Naturally antimicrobial, stays fresh in boots | Good Resists odor well | Poor Traps odor after a day of wear |
| Itch-free softness | Best Smooth fiber scales, no prickle | Good Soft, though some feel a prickle | Good Soft and itch-free |
| Sensitive skin | Best Lanolin-free and hypoallergenic | Fair Contains lanolin, which can irritate | Good Gentle on most skin |
| Durability | Best Strong fiber that holds its shape | Good Durable, prone to felting if overheated | Fair Wears thin and stretches out |

Reviews
Cozy
"Perfect for warmth and no itch. Wool has lanolin and alpaca do not, thus the difference. I can wear alpaca but nothing work against my skin"
Diabetic Alpaca socks
"Love the socks. Not tight, just right and warms up my feet."
Very good socks.
"Very comfortable socks especially the thicker terry lined diabetic therapeutic ones. Great for anyone with swelling, sensitive skin, needs extra cushioning or sleeps with socks on their feet. Only issue is on two separate pairs threads came loose on the inside of the sock making the stretch out and difficult to slide on. That said i plan to buy a few more pairs."
Love my Warrior Alpaca socks
"These socks are just what I have been looking for for a long time. I am not diabetic but pirchased the diabeic wide calf model because I do not like elastic marks arond ankle/legs that don't go away fast. They are warm for winter but not too thick. I can wear my usual shoes without the socks causing the shoes to be too tight. Cannot comment on durability yet, but hoping they will last longer than others."
Warm and dry
"My husband’s feet are always cold in the winter so we tried the alpaca socks and he says they keep him warm and don’t make his feet sweaty. Perfect!"
Good fit
"I searched for a long time to find diabetic alpaca socks for my husband. These fit great. He lost a foot a year ago so it's very important we do everything thing we can to protect his remaining foot. These socks are exactly what he needed!"
Trying them out first time - so far I like them
"I like the wide calf, It doesn't pinch but also slip down. The alpaca is comfortable so far, not itchy (I'm not sure what the other yarn materials will do once the weather get's warm). I like that my feet haven't, so far ended up sweaty after a day in the socks like they do with my present nylon socks. It's the main reason I bought the Warriors. these seem to be starting to be my favorites."
My husband loves these!! Lots of fuzz though
"After so many other socks finally one my husband loves. Although not diabetic he hates socks that are tight at the ankle. Loves these- warm & cozy. Only down side was the first time we put them in the washing machine- on delicate there was a lot of fuzz- also when in the dryer- only downside- he now hand washes them."
Diabetic Alpaca Socks Wide-Calf 3-Pack
"I ordered two different sock styles. This was one of the two styles. The calf part is fine. Slightly thicker and non-constrictive. . I found the foot section was too thin; it is described as standard on the website. Please note I do not have diabetes, but I like how stretchy and nonconstrictive the calf segments are on diabetic type socks. If you prefer a thinner foot section and a thicker non-constructive calf segment you may enjoy these socks. I preferred the single sock pair, toasty toes, which I reviewed separately and kept them the toasty tough foot section was thick thicker."
Have not received them !!!
"Have not received them !!! How can I rate them ???? I got the buggy before the horse !!!"
