I see several mongolian companies on etsy offering camel socks. Are they all the same or just Mongulai being the preferred choice? Additionally, on Mongulai, they have two options in camel, 100% and 70% versions.

Just get them on the Mongulai website; it's cheaper than Etsy.

I think the only reason to get them on Etsy could be if you only want one pair.

There were reports of people getting hit with extra duty fees when they ship from Mongolia.

If they look like the ones that mongulai sells they are going to be the same ones (“Tod” brand). 100% is what you want.

They state on the site that the specific socks we are discussing ship from inside the US on the website.

FWIW I bought a pair of yak wool socks from mongulai (and got hit with fees) thinking they were going to be the be all end all warmest socks. I wear injinji synthetic toe liners underneath to move the moisture away. They were no warmer or dryer than darn tough, smart wool, first lite etc.

To clarify, you wear the toe liners underneath both the 100% yak and other more common merino blend socks?

Correct.

 

[24valve]

Correct.

In that case, I would guess that the synthetic liners are either doing their job and wicking moisture away from your feet and making them feel dry and warm regardless of the wool sock outside of them, or somewhat doing their job and making them feel damp and warmish regardless of the wool sock outside of them. I have not used liners in either so I cannot compare personal experience.

However, I have used darn tough. smart wool, first lite, yak, and camel wool socks all without synthetic liners and can say there is a significant difference in warmth/dry feeling with the 100% yak and camel sock as compared to merino blends. I suspect that they feel warmer because my feet feel drier.

If the liners improve the damp feeling of the merino blend socks, I might have to give them a try.

Yes, the liners keep my feet completely dry. Especially between each toe. My feet still get cold though. For reference I'm talking about approximately 15-25 degrees, standing on a metal saddle platform for all day sits. Not enough to make me leave though, big bucks don't shoot themselves. Late morning is the hardest time to get through. A lot of times my toes end up going completely numb. This last one I shot, I realized when I got up to him that I couldn't feel my 4 little toes on either foot at all.

No sock will change that. You need real cold weather shoes.

The yak and camel wool socks do change it for most people when hiking in and out backpack hunting however.

Yea I will use them when I do those types of activities.
