moisture wicking socks for our hot September trip

[TLHB70]

I know that we should wear moisture wicking socks for our upcoming trip in September since it will be so hot. Normally we go in November or December so the heat and/or wicking socks really isn't an issue. This upcoming trip will be different I know. My question is about the wicking socks. I have seen them in running/sporting good stores for adults, but I haven't seen any for kids. Well, I have seen them for kids in REI, but they are in the brown/blue colors. I am looking for the wicking low ankle socks in white for my two DDs. Do they exist?

I've seen Coolmax socks at Modells for both adults and kids.

I found some for DS and DD at Mejiers. They really helped - we went in June and it was hot! No blisters here!

Thanks to both of you! I haven't heard of either of those stores so I am not sure that we have them here. Are they big department stores like Sears or Dillards? Or are they smaller like Kohl's? I guess I can search for that specific store on the web. I was just wondering if some of our department stores will have them if these two are like department stores. I haven't looked in the mall department stores here. I have just looked in sporting good stores.
Thanks again!

I just bought white crew coolmax socks from REI this past Saturday for my 6 yr old. I bought small women's which fit youth sizes also. Try looking in the adult section, not in the kids'.

Also, I found pretty good wicking socks at Target of all places.
