Anyone bought any of these online ? I've seen them available at eipc and they look erm like my eldests school socks rather than the thick wool I want (that and I'm not overly confident ordering from there). I also know suesue gets them in occasionally (not atm though) but I've no idea how good they are 
Recommendations or sites with availability would be cool am all googled and ebayed out 
Suesue, Helga. I've got a few pairs from there, and they're not too thick. 
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
I want them thick 
sorry didn't explain myself well enough I don't think I don't want them to look like modern school boy grey socks with a white stripe on them, they need to look thick. Think I may give up on this and just get some hiking socks be far easier (can use plain its just keeping them right out of che's way so he doesn't stretch them) pics I've seen of actual socks (as in original piccies) are relatively thick even though they're turned over, as apposed to the pics of the socks available on ebay, which look like erm school boy socks which I don't want.
Waffle waffle makes no more sense than before
Well, they're thicker than school socks, Helga. I know SoF do some for about £25, which is ridiculous. I'd recommend Suesue's - if they're not thick enough, wear some school socks underneath.

£9, from Richard Underwood is where mine came from. Quite happy with them as well

Well thats three for Mr Underpants (I asked elsewhere as Dave didn't feed the electric meter ), I probs could have picked some up at Malvern today had I gone. But I didn't and have spent the day adjust a fliegerbluse 
just need to put the pockets on and make a belt and thats sorted.
Kinda of low priority on socks but I do need some
Hi Helga
Mine are from RU too - thinking of getting some more from Suesue mind you, they're cheaper, but no idea how thick. The RU ones are fine. I take it you're wanting to wear them without gaiters? 
Indeed they will be for wearing without gaitors
As i found out at the D-Day bash, short boots and rolled down socks = comfort. FAR better than wearing gaiters - you can certainly see why the troops did it in the field, even if it was against normal rules.

Agreed K - and let's be honest, the gaiters are a bit of a pain to put on -
I like my gaitors, they hide my erm girlie socks but I want socks as well
Gaitors rock - be quiet!!

Especially when U figure out how to wear them correctly
