Icebreaker Merino wool socks are the most comfortable socks I've ever worn. They have all sorts of different styles, thickness and with different amounts of padding. They're stitched differently for L & R feet and are virtually odor free. My feet don't sweat like they do in cotton or synthetic socks. Cool in the summer and warm in the winter. I wore a pair every day for 2 weeks straight and they still didn't smell. They're a little pricy but they sometimes go on sale for 50% off. It's all I own now. You have to try them to believe it. Worth every penny.

Add another vote for merino wool. Available in different weights for different seasons.
A close second is a pair of bamboo fiber infused with charcoal I picked up on vacation in the Caribbean. Very nice.

I bought a bunch of ( made in USA ) FarWest wool and Farwest Alpaca socks last year on sale at Marks. Not thick , really warm . ( warmer than Marks boot socks) Wear well . They fit small , really snug. I hand wash in cool/lukewarm water. Very happy with the purchases.
I don't recall. A Google search didn't find any. The bamboo socks are by nature anti microbial and odor resistant.
I saw an item on Russian army recruits being instructed to wear foot wraps instead of socks. My first reaction was that it was stupid. Until I found it is actually smart. Wicking effect prevents foot fungal problems in summer when your feet get sweaty. Socks get wet. feet get fungus. I used to do this when I had a problem. Problem solved.
