I'm not quite a lumberjack, but that's OK, I sleep all night and I dream all day; I'll coppice trees, I'll grow my food, and compost poo and pee! With a well and off-grid solar, it's a permies life for me! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FshU58nI0Ts

I wonder if a thin piece of cardboard in front of returned socks, in a #10 envelope, would be light enough that 2 forever stamps would cover the weight? That would make shipping around $1 which seems like a good deal per pair of new socks.

Devin Lavign wrote:BTW this thread coming back up reminded me of this video recommending the two wool sock system. A thinner sock and thicker to prevent blistering. I have used this system on and off and have found it works pretty well. Typically I use it when doing a lot of hiking and blister issues are at their worst chances, but often forgo it when just average use.
