Love my socks
"Nice and warm, just the right fit"
The BEST Socks Year Round!!
"I bought two pairs of these socks. They are cozy with my boots on cold days and just the right comfort on mid season days. I love that they as soft as can be. I have a dozen pair of Warrior Alpaca socks in different styles and colors and knit preferences for all seasons. Short ones for summer and knee highs for winter. I won’t ever change brands. They wash up well on delicate cycle in a lingerie bag. I hang to dry so they can last longer. These are the best socks ever!!"
thanks for offering classic colors
"My main reason to get these besides the alpaca feel is that the colors are more classic. I cannot find plain blue socks in these types of quality socks unless you buy other socks with them and other merchants want to put pink on solid colors for women. I don't wear PINK!!!!! geez. or purple. These would be better with 2 tones of blue also, or maybe a tan/taupe, the red isn't going to go as well sometimes --even though that part of the sock doesn't show, I like to be coordinated. I want gray, brown, blue, and black socks and not all these extra colors put on and fanciful designs. My focus is on the other clothes on my body not the socks, I don't want patterns and pictures and such."
They're wonderful!
"Soft, comfortable, non binding, warm. Could not ask for a better sock."
Best socks ever!
"These are so soft, I never want to take them off!!!"

"Very warm and soft"
Donegal Socks
"Happy with all purchases. I do wish each pair was not wrapped in plastic."
Donegal Crew Socks - perfect for summer
"I have purchased several varieties of Warrior Alpaca Socks and the Donegal Crew are my favorite. They are exactly the right height and thickness for everyday clothes. They are perfect for cold feet in the summertime and are not too thick to fit inside of sandals. All of the socks are pricey but I find them worth every penny."
Love them!
"Warm, soft, fit true to size - very happy so far!"
