Fruit of the LoomMen's Durable Cushioned Work Gear Socks with Dual Defense-6 Pair Pack

Super comfy, durable socks, and inexpensive for a 10-pack.

Good product 👍 comfortable and durable.

Great price for quality. They do not shrink and are very durable.

Yes, this sock does seem small for a man's sock, but I wear a woman's shoe size 8-1/2 wide (man's size 7?) so it's good for me. The sock grips my foot nicely with the heel and toe in just the right spot. It doesn't twist around or slip down under my heel when I wear my winter boots like so many other socks. The crew top is perfect, just tall enough and not too tight. I'm not sure it would be very comfortable if it had to stretch much more for a man with a larger foot, say over a 9 or 10. This is a nice quality, fairly thick sock and seems worth the price, but I was disappointed because I thought the lighter-colored sole of the sock would be noticeably cushioned and it's not. It's just the same thickness as the rest of the sock. Oh well, I'll probably have to pay a lot more money for those cushy comfy socks I was hoping for. I just got the socks, so I can only talk about how they feel and fit. Time will tell if they wear and launder well. In the meantime, they get 4 stars from me.

More than a year and they’re still very cushioned . I wear them pretty much everyday at work . No thinning yet . Definitely recommend

Good value for the price

The current batch of socks I purchased are significantly different from the ones I got a couple years ago.Unfortunately, the newest socks have a higher percentage of synthetic materials. It feels different, and affects the way they wear.There’s almost a slippery nature to these and they often shift awkwardly over the fore portion of my foot. I frequently have to shift the toe area, because it’s like it was designed for a tube of bologna rather than a foot.The sizing is also different. When I put the socks on the heel pulls back too far, beyond the size indicated on the packaging.For otherwise nice socks, the way these wear is actually distracting.

At 85 cents/pr, this 12-pack is a great bargain. The socks themselves are 98% polyester, 2% spandex. I find the high % polyester socks to be MUCH more comfortable than the high % cotton socks. So, I always avoid the 100% cotton socks, and I only buy socks that have at minimum 60% polyester. (Socks can be made of all sorts of combinations of fabrics.)These socks fit very well (my shoe size is usually size 9.5 or 10, sometimes 10.5, depending on the brand). They are not too tight or too loose. They stay up on my calf (I hate when socks are loose and fall down to my ankles while walking.) They definitely do not cut off circulation around the ankle or calf. They are easy to slip on.Thickness: These have an adequate thickness for everyday wear. If 5 is "very thick" ( skiiing, snowmobiling, hunting, etc) and 1 is "very thin" (dress socks), then these are a 2 or 3 (leaning to the 3). I have some socks that I would rate as a "4" -- but these tend to be too thick for everyday wear, and also too tight. So, these FOL socks fall well within the acceptable range of thickness for everyday wear with casual shoes or sneakers.I can't say how well they will wash, or how long they will last. I suspect that the weak point will be similar to other socks, in that that they will form holes due to wear at the balls of my feet. (I hate holes on the bottom of my socks -- that is when I throw them out.) But, it remains to be seen. I hope to update this review after 6 months or so.
