Good for the money |
Nice,comfortable,lightweight socks. I've worn them for light hiking and every day. Soft, not scratchy. Thin... which is good for summer... but I'll have to see how they hold up over the long term.
They did ship a catalog and enough other junk mail with them to double the shipping weight. I didn't appreciate killing all those trees just so I could sort through them and make sure there wasn't anything actually important in there. |

great for the summer |
|
These are great for the summer months, because they are thin if you have to wear work boots these are made just for you. |

Nice cozy socks. |
|
They are very comfortable but not as warm as I had hoped but for the price nice. |

Not as warm as expected, but versatile |
You buy wool socks for one reason, really: warmth. These socks are not 100% wool, but I didn't think the small percentage of polyester would make such a huge difference. I am comparing these to 100% wool socks which are usually about twice as thick as these thin socks are.
However, these socks not being as thick can work to their advantage as does the color. In a situation where regular wool socks would not be appropriate (i.e. with dressier shoes) then these socks are a nice compromise between really warm wool socks and just plain cotton socks.
If you want big warmth, I suggest other socks (that are gonna cost more). If just somewhat warmer than cotton is okay with you, these socks are cheap enough to give a try.
Warmth: Two stars.
Versatility: One star.
Total rating by me: Three stars. |

A bit thinner then I expected but since I do not have any nice thin wool socks these have worked quite fine in most instances. |
