Bamboo Ankle | Quarter | Dress Socks, 5-Pair Gift Box

I’m not wild about these socks. I’m not that fond of how they look or fit. They are a shorter on the ankle than I like.But it’s their appearance thqt I like least. I’ll never wear the white ones (or any white socks) and probably will only rarely wear the others. They’re not special enough for dress wear and for day-to-day, I prefer a crew sock with a bit more thickness.They’re not really patterend but rather, are woven in such a way as to have a texture. I guess the idea is that the weave will produce more reflection off of some areas than others and thus appear as a pattern. But in actuality, that pattern is essentially invisible on most of the assorted colors in the package, so they just look like solid-colored socks. It shows up best on the brown, a bit on the grey, and not at all on the navy, black or white. When I washed them with other socks and emptied the dryer, Only the brown and grey were obviously distinguishable by virtue of the weave pattern. I had to inspect the remaining socks fairly closely to even match them together and not with other socks of the same color. And there are lots of solid-colored socks out there to choose from and that I prefer. Some people may like these but I’m not impressed.I’ll keep them because they’re certainly wearable. But I don’t consider them dress socks and they’re far from my favorite casual socks.
