Ladies, where can I find these socks?

I really want to find these socks for my girlfriend, but I can't find which store sells them. I've seen them being sold on ebay a ton of times, but they are usually sold by weird people as used and/or dirty (I'm not into that kinda stuff). I've seen several different styles that these come in and I assume they all can be found in the same store. They are long over the knee sporty socks and come with stripes on the top and colored trim on the heels and toes. Here's some being sold on ebay just so you know what I'm talking about:

As you can see, they are all over ebay, I just don't want to by them used, and I never did like the idea of private auctions. Anyone spotted where these are sold?

I got a ton of those from a store called Deb, but I don't know if you have those around you, so try Wet Seal first and see if you like the ones there.

Other than wool, what kind of socks are good for breathing out the sweat?

I am going hiking but dread the fact that my feet release an uncanny amount of sweat. I use the tenactin spray but that only lasts so long. Is there anything else I can use and what type of socks other than wool work best?

I have had my hiking boots for about 5 years. Why, all of sudden, are my socks creeping down into my boots?

I have had the same boots for about 5 years and I have never had a problem with any sort of socks, but on my last 3 walks, my socks have started to creep down into my boots, most uncomfortable. Any ideas?

Either you`re not tying them as tight, or you need new socks?

What are the best socks for hiking wet and dry?

I just bought Keen Venice H2 Waterproof sandals and I am wondering what socks would be the best to wear in them. I am going on a week long canoeing trip where we have to carry the canoe and all our gear for about a mile in between each lake so I thought hybrid shoes would be perfect. Anyone know what types of socks dry fast, won't blister my feet and will be still be comfortable when hiking between the lakes?
I know that Keen sells socks as well, but they have like 4 different brands. Which one is made for the hybrids so that you can hike in them in water and land.

I go on week long hiking/camping trips yearly and I use wool socks. Something like Smartwool or Bridedale (https://www.smartwool.com/default.cfm#, http://www.bridgedaleusa.com/socks.html). The hybrid socks from Keen look great. Wool dries quickly, breathes and should keep your feet dry but change your socks often, you want dry feet. Use some hypoallergenic surgical tape, like 3M's Durapore, on the places you get blisters.

What are the best socks for hiking?

eyzon47's answer is right on target - a thin, moisture-wicking first layer (polypropylene or some other synthetic like CoolMax, etc.) followed by thick wool second layer for cushioning. If you are prone to blisters, try applying something like Coach's tape or moleskin or one of the other fancy things like second-skin to the trouble spots before hitting the trail. You have to keep this in mind when buying your hiking shoes - try them on with thick socks to make sure you have enough space.

What are the best socks to buy in order to make them last and remain comfortorable for an extended period?

I stand all day and walk. I wear steel toed, slip resistant shoes. The heel of the sock is the first to go. What you recommend. I recently bought a pack of light hiking thorlo socks to see if they will help. Do you have any recommendations?

get circulation socks! they're really good for you if you're on your feet all day.

What causes ankles to swell while hiking? Boots too tight? Carrying extra weight? How can it be prevented?

My ankles and feet swell when I hike. My boots may be too small because my toes always end up hurting a lot on downhill. I also am about 10 pounds heavier than I should be. Are there hiking socks to prevent the swelling?

It could be the incorrect sizing of the boots. Boots should fit perfectly, where your feet should not slide around in your shoe when you lift it up. When it's too big, your ankles and the back of your feet may end up rubbing against the shoe. You don't want them to be too small, either.

When coming downhill, tie your boots a little tighter. This is to prevent your feet from sliding forward, banging your toes toward the front of your boots, which causes that pain.

To prevent ankle swelling, try stopping and resting more often, taking off your boots during hikes, lightening up your pack, and doing shorter hikes. The swelling maybe your body's way of telling you that there's too much stress. You may also want to buy some hiking poles, so you can transfer some that stress away from your ankles and knees.

Happy hiking.
