TK Maxx have some at the moment, and I think Trespass have a sale on. Worth a look if you're near either of those shops?

I bought ski socks from \link{http://www.trekwear.co.uk/\trekwear} last week. They don't have a massive range but v good prices, lovely staff & excellent delivery (DS1 is working a ski season in France & they got some stuff out to him in about 2 days!!!)

might be worth looking there for your other kit too

(if you order & try to pay with a Mastercard & it doesn't work, ring them instead - Mastercard verification isn't working apparently)

(look at the men's ski socks too - they come in size 4-7 & seem to be better prices than the women's)(possibly not the same quality though?)

Decathlon do good priced ones.
Embers for nice long lasting ones.

I let my fingers do the shopping.

Actually - I'm struggling for salopettes for DD7. She's really tall and takes a 8/9 years trousers but the waists are huge. Any ideas where I can decent filling ones that aren't ankle-bashers?!

With merino get the highest merino content possible. Merino/other stuff mixes are not nearly as good as merino ime. Howies are excellent, and currently on sale.
