    I'll post two or three when it gets here - I'm almost off of work for the day (gotta love the super early shift!) and the mail should run by 3PM - so there will be pics!

    I'm glad I opted for the widest normal width - it was an 'ounce well spent'.

    I'm anxious to try it out!

    I'm just looking to extend my TQ/UQ down to 20* (maybe a little less) and be completely comfortably warm. My TQ is rated to 40* I believe and my UQ is rated to 20* but is a partial. If I can be sure of comfort down to 20* - goal achieved. I think of the M90 sock as more of an insurance on the temp ratings of your set-up and maybe around 10* more warmth. The heavier sock certainly has a much heftier warmth bonus.

    I believe that the Papa Smurf version is modeled after his bug net - those directions are available on his website as far as I remember (also think he has a small disclaimer about asking when making your own version!). Could try there Fronkey.

    I was interested in the SEEP versions that MacEntyre creates. They look fantastic as well!

    From my understanding it's basically the same as the bug sock:
