The comfiest socks I have ever worn. Unfortunately they wear out fast. I would consider bonding some kind of thin-but-tough sole material to make a quasi-slipper. Then you would have the best of both worlds.
They're great, so soft and warm.

I love the pattern and color of these socks, and they feel very soft against the skin. However, since they have essentially no elasticity, they tend to slide around a bit on your foot and can bunch up inside your shoes. Also, they have no traction and are very slippery on wood floors.
They are a bit tight around the calf; it would have been nice if there was a more elastic finish at the top so they would stretch to fit more comfortably. I like them, but for the price, they could be better.
Most comfortable socks ever !!!!!

I wear them every night when I got home in Spring, Fall and Winter - have for over 15 years and just had to replace my first pair. Incredibly durable. Keep feet warm and toasty(that's a scientific term of art:)) but never sweaty. Simply the very best. Makes me want to climb Everest except I am scared of heights two rungs up a ladder.
Very comfortable, easy to wear

Started wearing Acorn socks with sandals after damaging my big toenail. Kept on wearing them, it's My Look now! I wear boots outside and put on my sandals when I get to work. Warm, comfy and I get compliments! I wear the ones with designs only.
