These socks are considerably heavier than regular cotton socks. The way they're made results in the exterior having a smooth, almost velvet soft touch to them, while the interior is equally soft to the touch yet dense like plush carpet. (The store's item description tells no lies.) Each sock has an individual (ironed on) brand label on either the left or right side, making each pair having a respective left and right sock. The socks arrive flat, ironed and in individual pairs, well secured. Each pair is tagged with a tiny plastic tie (which you'll need to carefully snip with scissors). The toe seam is noninvasive and practically invisible, so finely stitched that the seam itself is barely discernible. The socksfit securely around the ankle, but do not cling to the ball and heel of your foot, making them easy to put on and remove (no need to roll your socks up to put them on). Where regular socks have a ribbed feel to the elastic that runs up along the heel and typically has a cuff which strangles your leg and can often leave an imprint of the material, these do not. Instead, the elastic is evenly threaded into the weaving without any visible or textural difference in the material which, combined with the socks' weight and density, allow them to stay up despite feeling comfortably loose. I've yet to experience bunching around the ankle. I don't suffer from foot odour issues, so can't state their ability to reduce it; however their ability to wick sweat is quite amazing. Cotton socks will typically leave my feet feeling drenched (especially after gym) and, during the colder months, ice cold. These bamboo socks, while aren't going to keep your feet 100% dry from sweat, do reduce the amount of sweat on your feet while still retaining a level of insulation to keep your feet warm. Suggest wearing them with house shoes for added longevity and insulation. Washing these socks doesn't appear to damage or deteriorate their soft luxuriousness, nor has the elastic warped after several bouts of washing and drying (even without the use of fabric softener). I'm all for clothing as gifts for anyone and everyone - who doesn't like new clothes? - but I cannot buy generic cotton socks after wearing these. An excellent purchase, one that I'll absolutely continue purchasing for as long as they're available.Read full review

Not happy at all with these socks, I’ve purchased other types of bamboo work socks in the past and they have been great. But these are no good. Thin and roll down in your boots, not happy to say the least.
