I have been buying these socks for as many years as I can remember for my husband. These are the only socks that he wears except for dress socks. He is sending back the new ones I ordered for Christmas. He is not pleased with the quality. They are too thin and although they are 10 inches, they only come up to about 8 inches on his leg.
We are not sure what has changed but these socks don't compare to the previous ones purchased.
My son requested wool socks for Christmas and I knew which ones to purchase as I have a number of pairs of this exact item. They are warm, wash well, maintain their shape and are extremely comfortable. They also come in two lengths which is convenient depending on the style of boot/shoe you are wearing. Getting two pairs in the package was a bonus. I am very pleased and trust you will be also.
