I buy mine at Costco - they used to carry Head brand, made in USA, and now
they carry the same thing under the Kirkland name, made in USA.  I've been
wearing them for years and they are still great.  Contents are:  71% merino
wool; 21% nylon; 7% polyester; and 1% Lycra Spandex.  They cost about $13
for 4 pr.
