I'm having the hole issue with my wool socks as well. The cotton socks are holding up very well, but despite hand washing and hang drying my wool socks are all developing holes in the heels after very light wear. I really want to like the wool socks, but they need to be more durable.
my cotton socks have held up great, but I have a pair of Merino Wool ones and they have a hole after only about 6 weeks.

Another of my wool socks have holes in the heel now.
I recommend that only cotton socks be purchased. . .
