Wool is naturally anti microbial. I think that’s helpful regarding whether your socks stink or not. Wool is said to be warmer when they’re wet than other fabrics. If your feet get soaked your feet won’t stay as cold while you’re wearing them. Hope that makes sense.

It’s actually better for the socks to wash them less if they aren’t badly soiled. I’d wash them once they start to smell.
