Socks - Heavy are thick cotton socks that reach up over the shins. They are clothing for cold weather, worn on the feet under shoes.
Their strength is warmth. They keep the feet and shins far warmer than thin socks and block most of the wind. They weigh very little, so they are easy to carry as a spare pair.
Heavy socks are found in outdoor shops, workplace lockers and fire stations. They can also be knitted from Yarn with Knitting Needles. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The socks cover the feet and the shins in the Socks slot, under any shoes. They add a good deal of warmth and block about two thirds of the wind. That makes them a strong pick for autumn and winter.
Plain ankle Socks give less than a third of the warmth and cover only the feet. Long Socks also reach the shins but are much less warm and block less than half as much wind. For cold days, heavy socks are the warmest of the three.
The Socks slot takes one pair at a time, so heavy socks cannot be layered with another pair.
Tailoring
The socks are cotton, so cotton patches repair holes in them. The Knit Socks recipe makes a new pair at Tailoring level 2 from one Yarn. Knitting Needles are kept.
