I've bought three 8-packs of the Grip-6 crew socks - one in each color. Here are my thoughts. QUALITY Grip 6 wool socks seem to be on par with the smartwool socks I normally buy. They seem to be a bit deformed and stretched-out just out of the washer. I always air-dry. I'm not sure if they will hold their shape well over the long haul tho, only time will tell. So far, so good. PRICE Grip 6 socks are premium priced socks. Expensive. MADE IN USA 10/10 - Made in the USA. Yay! FOLLOW UP Grip 6 will not stop sending me emails. I've unsubscribed from their emails numerous times, yet they still keep coming. Very annoying.
