Love these! Bought them for a trip to Canada, where the weather has a mind of its own, and I was determined to survive on just a carry-on, so suitcase space was tight.

I usually rely on socks to regulate my temperature (weird but effective), and these were perfect for that. I actually layered them over regular socks so I could peel them off when I got too warm and stash them in my pack when needed.

They're perfectly sized, great value, warm without being bulky, and don't feel overly thick or heavy. Basically: cozy without the commitment.

Have bought many colors. They are cute, WARM, and go right under my knee. They are stretchy but tight enough to not fall down. I have thin lower legs and feet. If your shoes are already snug (ish), they will be much more snug, but I haven't been able to wear any of my work flats or ankle boots. Have had my 1st colors for 1-1.5years and wash and dry mostly on delicate since I do all my clothes together. No shrinkage. Still soft and comfy and warm. I do like a few other brands also, but these are my favorite warmest.

These are nice wool socks and they come all the way up to your knees, keep your warm, no sweaty feet. Excellent quality.They wash up nice and do not shrink in the dryer. Very nice and pretty too

I wear heavy knee socks daily through the winter months, weather because I'm outside or because I'm inside (sitting is a cold undertaking for someone like me!), ski socks make sense. Switching this year from the cotton version I wore for so many years. Cotton's not nearly as warm! Bought these, liked them, bought another set of two pairs. They're comfortable. I don't dry socks so can't speak to that issue. Only downside for me was that I realized after purchasing the second time that they don't just have acrylic, but a high acrylic content. I know in the world of sweaters that acrylic is the kiss of death. For me, once it's been washed, it's trash. Since my socks aren't on display, perhaps it just won't matter. If they age quite poorly, I'll update this post.

BEST winter socks I've ever owned!! These are my go-to socks that I wear all winter long with regular snow boots. They are warm, soft and not bulky. First socks that actually stay put on my slim calves! I've had two pairs for two years, and they still stay in place and have no holes. They have been washed a gazillion times, too, with only some pilling at the heel. No uncomfortable toe seam. So comfortable you won't even know you're wearing them! Long lasting, great quality socks that easily receive 5 stars!
