Cotton rich socks for men that are naice?

Not the most thrilling item I know but my stepdad honestly truly wants nothing more than some cotton rich socks for Christmas. I went to TK Maxx and found nothing, also none that looked any good in JL or debenhams. There are some weird odour-fighting ones at M&S that get mixed reviews but I kinda wanted something a bit special for him as he isn't asking for much. I would be okay paying around £15 for 3 pairs or maybe a bit more. I think he'd also like bamboo socks. Any ideas? Oh and both too novelty or bright as he's shy and doesn't want anything flashy! There are some nearly neon bright ones at sockshop that are very much not him!

These www.tkmaxx.com/view-all-mens-accessories-/pack-of-3-mens-patterned-socks/invt/20213346&bklist=icat,4,shop,21,2011 are very nice IRL. Great quality, great colours, nicely packed.

Thanks Paribus, those look nice - thing is the picky bugger man feels he must have cotton rich socks so at least 85% cotton as he has sensitive skin and anything less than that and he says his feet get itchy!

My DH is obsessed with bamboo socks since his mum got him some last Xmas - he will now only wear bamboo socks and bamboo boxers! Definitely worth it, in his opinion :) He gets them from here and from Amazon.

Thanks, ElizabethBathory, that site looks great and I think bamboo is the way to go.

There are 100% cotton ones on here, not sure how special they are though.
