Default Socks

I was wondering which under sock would be better for wicking away moisture. I was looking at Cabela's and they have both a polypropylene and dacron polyester socks. Which do you think would do the best job?

I like the polypro. The udersock does another cool thing. The 2 socks help avoid blisters. The rubbing that happens from walking occur between the 2 socks and not between the sock and your feet

I also put on anti-persperant on , makes the socks slide on sooo easy.
Also keeps your feet from sweating and getting cold. Try it you'll like it. Ps I use the unscented hunting stuff, not the stuff from the supermarket.

polypro works pretty good, i have several and wear them occasionally. don't think I've ever wore Dacron though. i prefer wool, 100%. it itches some people but it's the best wicking material out there in my opinion.
