GOLDTOEMen's 656S Cotton Crew Athletic Socks, Multipairs

Semi-Serious Sock Study : 21.5 Months
Spoiler: I liked Gold Toe the best!I wear white cotton crew socks basically every day, two pairs on workout days. I wear them with high-impact athletic shoes, work/walking shoes, and occasionally heavy work boots. I want them to last (no holes, no saggy tops), I want them to be comfortable, and I want a fair value for my money.So when I retired my old inventory nearly two years ago, I picked up five different brands of white crew socks.Durability: As I wore the socks, I tried to be very diligent about 'rotating stock' -- pulling socks to wear from the right-side of the drawer, putting in freshly-laundered ones on the left. In theory, they all received about the same amount of wear-and-tear.Wigwam (2/5): Unraveled at the top quickly -- after the first washing, three socks; after the third or fourth, almost every sock had loose tops. These thick socks took around a year before I started seeing holes in the toes or heel.Under Armour (4/5): Some unraveling around the 8 or 9 month mark, no holes until year two.Fruit of the Loom (3/5): Little unraveling, but heels thinned before the end of the first year, leading to holes.Hanes Cushion Crew (3/5): Modest unraveling, but moderate holes at toes and heels around the 9-12 month mark.Gold Toe Cotton Crew Athletic (5/5): Outstanding -- so far, no unraveling; two toe holes, one heel hole.Comfort: There's two factors for me -- first, softness; second, thickness/padding. Also, I'm not looking for a compression sock (like for when I fly, or if I develop CHF) -- nothing *too* tight (and none of them were).Wigwam (3/5): Very thick (for a crew sock), well-padded; stiff -- even after months of washing, they almost felt starched.Under Armour (5/5): Good thickness; started soft, became even softer after a few washes.Fruit of the Loom (3/5): Felt slightly thin; good softness.Hanes Cushion Crew (4/5): Good thickness; slightly stiff, but not as bad as Wigwam).Gold Toe Cotton Crew Athletic (5/5): Thick, but not too thick; softest out-of-the-plastic, and better as time went by.Value: All bought on the same date, non-sale prices (just standard Amazon prices)Wigwam Super 60 Crew ($2.97/pr)Under Armour Charged Cotton Crew ($2.50/pr)Fruit of the Loom Heavy Duty Crew ($1.81/pr)Hanes Cushion Crew ($1.78/pr)Gold Toe Cotton Crew Athletic ($1.72/pr)

A great value product. Strong, good fit, natural fibers, fair price. What more do you need. Wish everything was this honest and straightforward.

GOOD QUALITY AND VALUE
This package of 6 is prepriced at $23 for 6 pair. The discounted price plus additional coupon made by purchase an outstanding value. Each sock netted out cost approximately $1.93 each. For Gold Toe socks, that a great value.They fit as expected. Comfortable and gripping the leg nicely. How well they wear, wash, and last, only time will tell.I recommend this sock until I change my mind later.

super soft cotton
Good looking socks, like the picture. Medium thick but so far have not made my feet sweat. Pakistan produces exceptionally soft cotton and good socks. Bravo.

Excelente producto.
Bb uen producto, mejor precio que otras marcas y de mejor calidad. Uso el producto para caminar con mis mascotas con botas de hiking. Mis pies sudan mucho y con otra marcas enseguida se generaba olor, con esta medias al ser más de algodón son súper transpirables y no adquieren olor.

2 month review
After 2 months of wearing these socks almost daily, I can now say that they are both comfortable and durable. The top doesn’t sag, the internal elastics are still as good as new.

Comfortable Quality Socks
I have bought these socks for 3 grandsons and they love them. I bought them for myself as well. Great socks.

Buena calidad a buen precio
Recibí el producto que previamente alguien había recibido, e incluso se los había probado. En ningún lado se menciona que es un producto usado como nuevo, decepcionado de Amazon esta vez.
