I have been wearing these socks for years. They last a long time, they are great for traveling--just wash and squeeze in a towel and hang up and 2 pair can go the whole trip. I wear them year round. My feet feel good and they do not stink even in summer.
I'm a woman who wears 9.5. The medium socks are too big. They also weren't packaged in any way and just rolled on end like I do in my sock drawer. They are thick so not goof for warmer climates.
I love these socks! These are my seventh pair. But, the masks in the store need to go. Masks are Against Medical Advice. They do not prevent the spread of disease and anyone recommending masks can personally be charged with a felony for practicing medicine without a license.
(Yikes @ the anti masker below me) these socks are awesome. they run a tad bit but for me that means they fit perfectly since I was between sizes anyways on the size chart. Smart wool quality.
I have never felt so much relief on my feet than when I wear these socks. These are amazing and I love them!
good comfy sock, i sense the elastic may stretch over time but I've only worn 1 time and havent washed yet
