GOLDTOE Men's 656P Cotton Ankle Athletic Socks, Multipairs

These were my go to for years. They are comfy, fit well and hold up pretty well. They are a good value.

The usual quality product from Goldtoe for men. Thick and reinforced heel and toe areas. Adequate support& washes well in white. Breathable with some cotton. Fit was perfect for 5’ 10”. As slippery as any sock would be. White & black available.

Great socks. Just the right height. Right at the ankle. Thick and soft also. Got them on sale also.

I feel like I've been on a Sock Sojourn of sorts... I value a Good Deal, so I've bought my share of cheaper socks. I value Customer Reviews, so I've bought my share of Well Reviewed socks. And so on and so forth. But I must say: I'm very darn glad that I finally came upon these Gold Toe socks, 1/4 height. I've had them for about 10 days, maybe 14, now. I've worn them almost every day since they arrived, in temperatures from about 28 degrees F to about 45 degrees F. I've worn them in hiking boots, tennis shoes, wool slippers, and just raw, around the house. And probably another couple of ways, to boot. These socks are pretty great -- at least for my use cases. The quality is there. Other reviewers here write about this and I agree; these socks seem to be several clicks above other cotton-forward "1/4" height socks you might buy most places, in my experience. And - again, for me - they flatly blow away other inexpensive, less 'cotton-forward' socks that I've bought online. Let me emphasize that: Blow Away. Some others I have bought, trying to find a 'sweet deal', have turned out to be far too hot on my feet (usually due to too much synthetic fabric, I'm pretty sure), or far too short (usually due to my own mis-reading the descriptions ... or just thinking my wishes might will them into being the ankle height I hope for..?... I despise 'ankle socks'. Not for their look. Or anything else. But because, for me anyway, they should be called: 'Under the Soles of Your Feet Wads' -- not "socks" at all. ) And so on. Suffice it to say, I have been doing a lot of purchasing and a lot of donating to Good Will in the sock department for the past several years. These socks might also eventually go towards the Good Will end of things - in the fullness of time. But it will not be soon. Because they are very clearly, Very Good. They fit well. They feel good. They don't slip down egregiously. Even though I don't wash them before I wear them (which (duh), I know I really should), they don't pill and shed very much at all, right out of the package. They're not Too Hot on my feet. (They're perfect.) And there is a certain quality in any product that, when you first encounter it, makes you think: 'ah! this is the real deal.' These socks are all that, for me. And, they look darn pretty good. So try them. OR: keep trying cheaper stuff that is designed and manufactured with *less attention to what actual people with actual feet and ankles might actually value. (... and then keep donating those other socks to those who might maybe appreciate them. Hey: there's no real harm there: people need socks.) But if you want some really good socks for *your own feet? Try these. They are definitely worth it. I feel like I've staggered out of the Sock Desert to find myself in this Gold Toe Oasis. And I'm very darn glad I did.

Great socks but I did get 1 bad sock from two six packs not stitched correctly. Still the best ankle socks I've owned, I wear a size 15 shoe and very comfortable . I usually wear out socks in less then 6 months and the crew version of these last 2-3 years before retiring. 3 months in and all still like new wearing them every day since on short term disability so I can wear shoes and shorts instead of work boots and pants.

Other sock producers continue to cheap out and make their socks thinner garbage. The Sock Cabal in this country tries to convince us that they are doing us a favor instead of screwing us by lowering our sock to cost ratio, under the guise of breathability. Look no further, enthusiasts of reasonable socks. Buy these. They are comfortable, not too thin, and durable. Don’t let the foot fabric thievery continue unchecked. Rage against shrinkflation with GoldToe socks!! 10 stars.

Good quality and fit

Husband loves these! Very comfortable and fit great!
