Kemal:

when i got home i found the package of my socks finally here!!! Damn customs held them up 3 days short of a month as they came in the US on 2-20. ah well

My initial thoughts, I got both Mid calf and over i had to roll the OTC ones down as i have large calves and wore them with a casual comfort moc from lands end (when i got home from the city to bad i would have loved to had 'em on with my Aldens!!)

They breath very well and for the 6 hours or so I wore them was pleased. I will post again when I get to wear them with my dress shoes but I can say now that the quality is very good and they breathe better than my other poly/cotton blend socks.

cheers

or solid body with contrasting toes - I'd buy 30 pair tomorrow if you offered charcoal gray with pink or red toes and heels.

Ok wore a pair black, mid calf and loved loved them so thin..I was worried on the wear. Again wore with comfort all weather suede mocs (lands end).

Usually have some sweat foot odor after removing my good thicker, more expensive socks, not any odor with these after wearing for 14 hours! Love them! was real warm in NY, 65 degrees so ample to sweat running around errands in these.

?? How do the silk compare to the standard Cotton for breathability? I definitly will use with my dress and casual shoes (lil worried on the thiness with my aldens--but think it is just the change and hard to believe a thin sock can perform so well!)

So I will get some more when i clean out my sock drawer a little more.

????? Kemal???? any plan to produce a low profile sock to be worn with sneakers and shorts??

thats all that is needed to round out the inventory perhaps? ;-)

cheers

My first couple of pairs arrived today, 11 days from order to arrival in Australia which is good. The finish at the top of one of the two pairs isn't quite right, but they look very good for the price.

+1 Label says to wash at 30c, washed at 40c as I normally do and they shrunk about 10% (seem to stretch out when wearing though)

i ordered ten pairs in winter weight, and they arrived just as i was losing my cool (about 3.5 weeks from the order). well, i've spent about a week wearing the new socks and have to say these are gonna be my go-to socks for work from now. certainly on par with my other over-the-calfs but great value at the price.

they are a bit long for me, and i tend to cuff them at the knee. this hasn't been a problem, and i'm certain that any smaller a size would've been too small. also, i have tried wearing a pair after a single wash, and the length of the foot seems to have shrunk to my requirements.

i'm really happy with them, and would recommend to anyone considering giving them a shot. much better value than anything i can find in a store here.

My order arrived yesterday - three pairs of beatiful summer bright red socks. Perfect size, reasonable delivery time and great price - altogether, another satisfied customer.
Thank you!
