So far, 8.5 of 10. I’ll write more as I use them more. These are my first Grip6 socks and I am intent on putting them to the test. I am wearing them every day from the day after I got them (around Thanksgiving) until February 23rd. These are the Christmas pattered crew socks. I wish they were a little taller, and more true to size. I am not overweight nor have thicker feet, but these are a little tighter than I think they should be. I wear a size 9 and wish I bought for a size 10. As a matter of fact, I went back in to buy another set of them in a larger size and was going to have my wife use these smaller ones, but the price went up almost $20 for the 8 pack and I’m just not ready to pay $20 more on top of the $100 to correct for their sizing label. After a day of wearing them, the pattern is not as sharp and crisp, but they are still SUPER comfortable on the foot (just not the leg). I read their directions, and decided to put a pair or two to the test of wearing for more than a day. Even after two days in flight boots they did not smell. I cannot do that with my normal work socks. Don’t think I will continue the habit, but it is possible even for a normally sweaty foot person like me. On that note, my feet don’t sweat in these and have been warm all day. I was very surprised about that because they are much thinner than the WigWam I usually wear in winter. I usually sweat in them and would say the Grip6 are better temperature all day. Grip6 has got the knit, foot comfort, and most importantly MADE IN US FROM USA WOOL parts down!!! I’d love to see the diameter of the socks increased, but if not, then the sizes are off. I will try more when the price corrects or on February 23rd (whichever comes first!)
