  Great for the price January 2, 2008 These tabi socks are made of durable material, although it may feel a little rough at first it becomes comfortable when worn. I expected them to longer but they come to just above the ankle. One size may fit all in japan but if you have big feet these simply will not do. They definitely stretch but are still tight on my feet.
Overall if you just want some nice cheap tabi socks that will get the job done these will do. If you are looking for something more then look elsewhere.
  Go for a fitted brand... December 2, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
These tabi socks are promoted as one-size-fits-all. Well, perhaps "one size fits" Western women between size 3 and 5. Do yourself a favor: spend a little extra money and buy a fitted tabi sock.
  Not bad for the price October 22, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought these socks to wear with my indoor and outdoor tabi; they are of average quality and fairly comfortable. One huge problem though: a hole developed in the big toe area after only ONE training session. They're still usable, so they function for what I need them to, but it's important to note. It's also possible I just got one defective sock out of the thousands they undoubtedly produce. I will be getting another pair eventually, so we'll see how they compare.
*Update* - So I've bought a few of these over the last year, and all in all I've been mostly happy with them; however, it appears random as to exactly which "brand" of socks you get. Sometimes I get a pair that is very durable and works well, other times I get a pair like the first ones I got (that developed the hole). They are slightly different styles, and the material feels different, so I'm guessing made by different manufacturers. I guess the long and short of it is sometimes it's a gamble depending on what they have in stock, so just keep that in mind when you're making your purchase.

These are basically thick, black, dress socks with a split toe. They are sort of comfy but its just like wearing dress socks around the house...kinda odd, ya know. When you put them on, the stitching sounds like its about to give. They have to be stretched out to your foot size before they'll properly fit you. Worth the money? Eeeeeeh....why not? Just don't expect anything marvelous.

For those of you who don't know, Tabi Socks are socks you wear with traditional Geta Shoes from Japan or with Sandals. They feature a split toe, where your big toe is seperated from the rest of your toes so it can be slipped into a Sandal or Geta Shoe. These ones are Black and stretch nicely on your feet so it'll fit any foot.
