 Quality construction, but a little snug. June 1, 2008
I have been looking for decent socks that don't cost a small fortune as I seem to go through them pretty fast. Amazon price was great. Product arrived and the construction looks good with excellent stitching, no loose threads and tight seams. They did appear a little on the small side to me though. I wear a 12 and after 1 wash the socks are uncomfortable to wear for any length of time as they constrict my toes a bit. I'd say they will fit 10 no problem, but anything more and you might not like them. I'm going to give them to my 6yr old son, they fit him better!
 Size Issues December 19, 2007
Perhaps for the average person, these socks are okay, albeit expensive, but for someone with a small foot (size 8 shoe)like myself, I found that the foot part of the sock is too long and too big around. Additionally, the elastic on the upper part of the socks is way too tight, leaving deep impressions in your leg after wearing them for a day. They do appear to be well made, but overall for my use I found them unacceptable.
 Acrylic Blend November 25, 2007

I've been buying Gold Toe crews (and the occasional knock-off) for 40 years. I started in college, when my socks kept riding down my heel, into my loafers. If you have that problem, these sox are the cure.
All my older GT crews were mostly cotton (with lycra) - they shrank some and lost their softness, but not their usefulness. I have some that may be 20-25 years old.
These particular sox seem to be the 22% acrylic blend - they have a flecked appearance, probably "heather". I got 5 packs, and after several washings, they seem to be holding their size and fluff better. I expect the acrylic to be a little warmer, which should be an advantage with winter almost here. Not sure about the summer.
Had I noted the acrylic content, I probably would have passed, but these seem to be as good as the old mostly-cotton crews. Time will tell.
UPDATE (7-20-2008 from 11-27-2007):
These socks were a joy over the winter, but are too warm for summer. Also, by April, the foot of each sock began to lose its shape, making folds or collections of fabric likely. (The shank retains its shape.)
I probably wore each sock seven to ten times before the problem developed. My old cotton socks are a little frayed at the heel, but are otherwise fine after many years. I can no longer recommend these acrylic-content socks.

Free shipping and got here fast, unfortunately the other items I had to cancel d/t not being shipped for well over a month. Will not order from Amazon direct again. Will continue to order from the used area for an item that I like.
