How do these socks do in terms of falling down? I normally wear o-t-c because slipping socks are really annoying (not quite up there with world hunger and acid rain, but still annoying).

They're great that way, at least in my experience. They stay up all day without feeling constricting.

I'll second that. They stay up. They stay comfortable. They wash up nicely (I did have one pair that fuzzed - I've since machine washed them all inside out and have had no problems).

These are, without a doubt, my favorite socks. I also like the fact that they do a good job of fitting small feet (I'm a 7D). The only pair that I had that fit large were the ones with the snake.

Interesting about the snake. If I remember correctly they actually looked a little smaller than the other pairs.

There are now only a dozen styles left. I think this is it for new styles for a while.

None of them are fully over the calf. They're longer than normal ankle length socks, reaching to around the mid calf, where they are comfortable and not constricting. There's some discussion of this above.

#1 is sold pending payment, as are quite a few of the pairs. This is why I put aside any I think I'd like to keep right away. They don't last long once posted!
