Mysocks Unisex Knee High Long Socks Plain

Reviewing Size 8-11 in black, worn on women's US size 9-10 narrow feet with thin heels:I love these socks. Long long ago I built up a good supply of Land's End knee high smooth cotton socks but Land's End stopped offering those and despite my care my stash is wearing out. I have skinny feet, ankles, and calves along with very sensitive skin that becomes deeply grooved by any pattern in my socks, so I am quite limited in my sock options. I've tried buying various possible ones over the years; these are the first that do what I need them to do.They are tall enough I need to fold them over at the top, with a wide enough band not to cut into my leg. The toe and heel construction fits slightly loosely without in any way being baggy. These are very comfortable in my sneakers. I even like the MySocks logo on the bottom as it ensures I won't be mixing these up with my myriad other black knee high socks. (I'm tempted by all the colorful versions but years of wearing black slacks in the courtroom conditioned me to only wear socks that will blend in).My only quibbles are one: the price. Not that they haven't earned the $12, but as I want about 20 pairs and am retired I really can't afford that. Perhaps I shall let friends and family know that yes, socks for XMas would actually please me. And two: The laundering directions say not to tumble dry. Sorry, I'm not draping a zillion socks over my stair banister ... so I'll have to see how they hold up over multiple washings protected in a mesh bag on low heat.

Since i have wider calves, its tough for me to find true knee high socks that are actually knee high and go around my calves without cutting off circulation, these fit great and look great, plus are really comfortable

Pros: Stays up, nicely shaped fit, toe seams comfortable, colors ( except cream, which looks almost white unlike photos here which appear light khaki) are true to online photos. Wash and low dry very well. Nice medium weight, not hiking socks but neither are they flimsy lightweights. Just right.I wear a 7 M shoe and the 4-7 size is a good fit Could have a size 8 and still fit this size well.I've got just a but of extra room but doesn't bunch up at all.Cons: Other than the one minor color discrepancy ( why no real khaki color? Purple cannot be a bigger seller than tan / khaki, can it? LOL), in terms of quality, there are no other cons.The one obvious thing to note is that yes, these are expensive at $12 a pair.. But I would much rather get a sock made right in nice colors,at $12, than pay much less and get a shoddy, poorly fitting sock.What remains to be seen is how well these fare over time. Will update if they start falling apart or develop issues.Must say, I do wonder at the several bad reviews ( among many many good ones)..Who writes these....competitors?? They sound like they have some grudge, not fair critiques..but who knows. ?

My Socks are perfect for me. My legs are larger than average & it is a challenge to find socks that fit comfortably. I ordered the purple socks & was well-satisfied: the length goes up to the knee; the toe seams are smooth & don't hurt; the degree of stretchiness prevents the socks from digging into my legs; the price is acceptable. I plan to order additional My Socks in various colors.

I actually purchased a pair of these to augment renaissance era clothing...which proved most satisfactory. The black stripes on the burgundy background was exactly what I was looking for, and they stay well above my knee, which is important to this period attire. It proved to be an excellent purchase for my particular need.

Very comfortable, has not shrunk after multiple washing. Does not slide down- stays up. I require a knee-high sock that's both thin and stays up to protect my leg from skin breakdown caused by an AFO leg brace. The AFO fits into my shoe, so a thin sock is mandatory for booth fit fit and comfort,

Excellent socks for the North Eastern hiker -- the long sock protects against both mosquitoes and ticks and even poison ivy and poison oak. Worked very well all summer with over 500 miles logged on wooded trails.Durability appears good after that mileage; they survived several warm laundry sessions; and there has been no unraveling at all.As a lawyer, I became addicted to knee length socks -- at the time, they marked a Wall Street Lawyer -- we were "afraid" to show bare skin when we sat down, apparently. Secretaries were always amused, included one beautiful one who later became my wife.As a codger, I like simplicity and efficiency. So I've bought nine more pairs so that I can mix and match freely after doing the laundry. Sorting time in the sock department has decreased to less than a minute.Robert C. RossSeptember 2018

They have been through the wash a couple times now and so far so good. They are warm but not too hot even with boots. No noticable seems. They stay up but are not too tight. My calves are just under 12.5 inches at their thickest and about 17 inches from floor to where the sock stops. They would easily go another 2 inches. My foot is 10 inches long and the shock would stretch comfortably another inch or so. I bought a solid and a print and find no difference in fit.

Came in on time and was nice but not for the price. The material is thin and I got a larger size yet it's still kind feels tight around my legs.

These are great for a girl on the larger size. I am not a huge fan of the text on the bottom.

These socks are very comfortable and of high quality. Just what I was hoping for.

I purchased these socks to help me see whether or not any ticks were on my clothes/socks while working in the fields or woods and the socks serve that purpose very well!

Fits well, very soft to wear. Looks great with my kilt boots. Will purchase more of these.

ordered the wrong item. Re-Ordered the right item

Kept rolling down.

I was surprised that these over my husband's thick calves. Nice. Worked well for his costume.

It's a black sock that goes over the calf, that's what I was looking for!

good value for inexpensive socks
