Softer than cashmere and warmer than wool, bison down is the key to making these socks warm enough for winter hiking but comfortable enough to wear to work. The American bison was hunted nearly to extinction in the 19th century. Today herds thrive in the Great Plains, where the fiber for our American Bison Socks is gathered.
These American Bison socks are very well made and extremely comfortable. They keep your feet warm without making them sweat. I will buy another pair of them next year in a different color--definitely worth the price!!!!

"Very disappointed"
I was given two pair of these for Christmas (2016) By the end of January, three of the socks already had holes. I didn't wear them everyday since i only got two pair. I loved them, they are very warm and comfortable just cant believe they wore as quickly as they did. Very disappointed in that. Also i have sent Nat Geo two emails and a tweet with no response at all.
I've never owned a better pair of socks that keep my feet warm. They are my favorite during the cold weather.
The socks are quite thick and difficult to wear with some of my shoes but I don't care since I tend to wear them around the house and to bed.
I own 3 pairs!
I bought these sock for my husband...Way too hot to wear them now (A Father's Day gift). I am sure he will get a lot of use from them in the colder months ahead.
My son and I do a lot of fishing in cold weather, and these socks are the best we've found at keeping our feet warm in our waders. They are soft, warm, very comfortable, and very well made. I was most impressed with the quality and workmanship. I will buy them again.

Warm Well-made Comfortable
Best Uses
Fishing (in waders), outdoor activities in cold weather, and just lounging around the house in winter
It looks marvelous! They feel nice, and I wish they were less expensive. Please notify me when they go on sale and I may purchase more. And how can we get a discount with your website? Thank you. r.s.v.p.

Truly a warm and soft pair of socks.
However, I expected 2 pairs of socks to arrive based on the product picture. Hopefully the one pair lasts twice as long to justify the price.
I purchased a pair of these socks for my brother and his wife, they live in Michigan and they can appreciate a warm comfortable pair of socks. They are thick and soft and made in the USA!
My son lives in Chicago. He hardly ever asks me to buy him anything. This Thanksgiving, he asked me to buy another pair of "these wool socks" (he handed me the pair I bought him last year). He said, "These are the best wool socks."
I purchased these socks as a Christmas gift for my son. He is a boatwright and often works outdoors in the cold. The socks are heavy, soft, and warm. Perfect. In addition, they are packaged nicely so make a nice gift.
I sent my nephew, a surgical intern, who spends a lot of time standing in cold operating rooms, a pair of these for his birthday. He says they're great, and he loves them!
