These Gold Toe socks are thicker than either "big name bran...d" - FOTL or H. There's more material per sock. These will last longer, survive washing, keep their elasticity. The only drawback I've had with these is that the upper part of the sock reaches too far up my lower leg. If I move them lower they look like slouch socks. That actually turns into a plus for these - they are made of more material than other brands, so they are thicker and taller.

The soc...ks I received are much shorter than the ones my husband currently has. I'm not sure if they are marked with the wrong size or not.

I find all new socks to be itchy. As always I put ...these through the washer and dryer 3 times. Then I read online to soak socks in 3 cups vinegar and water which I did in a basin. Took them wet and put into washer and added a box of baking soda, no soap-washed and dried. They are perfect now. Not too thick to make shoes tight, plenty of cotton content but enough elasticity to be firm. I've ordered another 6 pair pack.

I love these socks. I have size 7 wide feet. These fit sn...uggly on my shins but are loose enough for my wide feet. They come up to my calf and stay up. These are better than my thick Gold Toe socks that I've been paying too much for at Kohl's and Boscov's.

These are really the softest cotton socks for... men. My husband loves the gold toe socks so much. I bought 2 six packs for Spring this year. He also likes their black ones for work.
