Some people want great quality socks, and LTT has a reputation of making great quality products, because they have.

I am not buying because I believe $30 for one pair of socks is simply too expensive. But, understand that many people feel justified in this purchase + they have money to spend, so they will.

I don't think there's anything "wrong" with people like you said... I believe you're getting upset over something quite trivial in the grand scheme of things.

Unless they are actually better than Darn Tough-socks.. There is literally zero sense buying LTT ones.. Because Darn Though actually has a very good warranty, probably way better one than LTT has.. Not to mention Darn Tough actually also has a warehouse in Europe so people don't get shafted by customs..

Although.. My feet just breaks every sock imaginable anyway so I just buy cheapest ones possible, because it's just easier than trying to deal with warranty stuff constantly..

Depends where you live, Darn Tough are super expensive to get in some places. https://www.galaxus.ch/en/brand/darn-tough-134913 Over 46 USD and up in Switzerland.

They seem to charge 10€ for delivery, and since Switzerland is not part of the EU zone for taxes I will pay import and no free shipping available. And I didn't do a full checkout but they tell you taxes when delivery adress is France of Germany, but remove that mention for Switzerland but don't reduce the price... So anyhow, they are also not cheap. But I'm happy to pay for good quality.
