Those look like some good scooter socks!! I've got this sock fetish going on, 'cause I ski, hike, etc. Another good choice for socks is a ski sock...they've got padding in the shin area, the heel and the bottom of the toe box, plus some on top of the instep. They come in various weights, and are generally a blend of Merino Wool and other man-made materials. I use lightweight in summer and in my ski boots, and a mid to heavy in winter for hiking. Both these work well in my scooter boots. Cotton socks are absolutely useless...they just keep your feet damp, regardless of the activity. Some good brands of ski socks are Bridgedale, Thorlo, and Smartwool...they will run you 10 - 16 bucks a pair, but I've had some of them for several years, so they last. If you're looking for something a little cheaper, but still good, CruiserBoots sells some CoolMax socks that work pretty well...they just won't stay up as well, and that drives me NUTS....All of these will wick moisture away from your skin, keeping those pinkies from gettin' stinky, and come up over your calves so they'll stay put and not wad up in your boot. Two or three pair will last for years. I'll have to check out these new ones though.... [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]
