Since retiring to FL, we haven't needed as many llbean products. But, cool evenings, A/C set too cold, etc., requires the excellent fleece socks!! I ordered 2 pair, because, alas, the two pair I ordered 15 YEARS AGO finally needed replacing. What quality!! I also ordered pairs for kids and grandkids still living in IL.
The socks are very warm. Fit wonderfully. Only drawback was I thought the "aspen" pattern would be more on the blue scale. They are purple, which is feminine for a man. He laughed and thought there was a mistake when he opened up the "his" Christmas package.
I'm very disappointed with these socks. I bought 3 pairs, two for my husband and one for myself. After wearing for them for the first time, my husband found a large hole where the seam was not properly stitched. We then checked the other two pairs which also had holes in them. All 3 pairs are being returned. Not what I expect from LL Bean.
