i got the nike cricket socks from morrant. 3 pairs for £9. little thinner than your average cricket socks so i wear 2 pairs at once. comfy and no signs of any wear and tear as of yet.

I have 3 pairs of the Horizon Test socks.  Brilliant socks.  Last lot lasted pretty much the whole season (around 50 games)

I am also using the Nike socks - 3 for £9 is not bad. I don't bowl much any more so one pair is fine - they are pretty comfortable...

i dont see a problem with using 2 pairs when bowling. i used to do it and im pretty sure i remember broad during a test match or one dayer changing socks or adjusting a ankle support and having a couple of pairs on. If its good enough for them.
