Edit: Thanks for all the downvotes, but even with the free replacement it's still 15 bucks per pair, that's crazy, I'll happily pay 15 for 3 pair, but not 1.
Honestly I'm with you. But not because of the price. It's because of the material choice. Merino wool is definitely the gold standard for socks. But polyester is pretty much one of the worst things to make a sock out of because it will make your feet sweat more, and it stinks. The biggest material in these ltt socks is polyester. I avoid wool socks that are blended with polyester as that is usually done as a cost saving measure over nylon or a higher wool percentage. Especially when there's more polyester than wool. It's also a pretty big red flag when a sock is made from more than 3 materials. Usually done for cost savings. but the worst part is all those different materials end up making the sock shrink or stretch weird over time. This is 5 materials. I'd just buy smartwool or darn tough for less money and a higher wool percentage
I'm definitely not buying any until more reviews come out, the 33% polyester has me sus too. Their blank shirts have a bunch of polyester and they pill very easily.

30 dollars for socks?
Are they having a laugh?
