Value for money??? No!, 10 January 2012

I bought two pairs of these socks - they felt good, but the wool quality is not strong enough to withstand heavy chafing from some shoes and I found the wool shrinks and the heels wore out after two/three uses. I suspect they will be ok to use for dress shoe type wear. If your thinking of serious walking then you’d be better off going for a higher quality pair - Icebreaker, Brasher, Smartwool or some such, which will probably cost three/four times as much but will last 50 times longer.

Socks are very warm and comfortable. Had them for a while and are still ok, tho havent worn them for any great distances.

I've gone through quite a few pairs of these socks. While i enjoy them when new - very comfy, soft and warm.., they do wear through the heel very quickly. I use them in my work boots for 12hrs a day so they do take a lot of abuse!
