Amazon has 4-Pack Columbia Men's Mid-calf Moisture Control Ribbed Crew Casual Socks (Black/Brown/Blue/Khaki, 10-13) for $7.15. Shipping is free with Prime.
I use Smartwool. I have 1 pair of their classic sock and 2 pairs of their heaviest, I think they call it their mountaineer. I also have 2 pairs of darn tough, their standard hiking sock, they work well also. //@Anonymous: Thanks. That is very helpful. Do you have any particular brands that you do recommend? //@Anonymous: I own these, they are ok but not for serious hiking. I'm a landscape and wildlife photographer so I am always out in all conditions and wool socks are far better. These also tend to slide down often after a few months, bothers me. I'm basically about to throw them out.. Hope that helps.

These do not appear to be Wool //@anonymous: I would only wear wool socks if doing some serious hiking. REI has some great ones or even Amazon. They make a huge difference. //@Anonymous: Good deal? Will these be a good choice for my Appalachian Trail through-hike?

I find that wool socks shrink when washed. So I wouldn't feel bad about the 10+ (I'm a 9.5 anyway).
Yes, when hiking I recommend something like this, hot or cold. //@Anonymous: Not sure if these fit small feet? size 10+? //@anonymous: Good deal? Will these be a good choice for my Appalachian Trail through-hike?
