EDIT: LOVING these socks more and more! GREATEST socks to wear around the house or with slippers. SO WARM AND COMFY. MUCH better than any fluffy synthetic socks or slipper socks that make your feet feel sweaty. These BREATHE much better. PERFECT THICKNESS.

PROS:
Needed warm socks for around the house and to wear with slippers. These seemed perfect for my needs
COST - Got on a Lightning Deal for under 7.50 total delivered for FIVE pairs. Yay Prime.
COMFORT - they keep feet warmer and drying, being mostly of wool and cotton, then the really fluffy synthetic socks.
TEXTURE/FEEL - ok no they are not FLUFFY, but most of those types of socks are all synthetic or maybe part cotton.
I liked these wooly type socks. NOT SCRATCHY, PLENTY SOFT FOR ME AND WARM. NICE WOOL/COTTON/POLY BLEND which are hard to find, ESPECIALLY at a great price.
SIZE: I wear an 8.5. AFTER washing (and I DID wash in cold and dry on low), these are perfect, not too big or too small. There is some stretch, but I don't know how they would be if you wore above a 9. Also I don't pull them up, I kind of do what I do with slouch socks and push them down around my ankles, just more comfy for me and work better with my sweat pants that have elastic around ankles.
WASHING - I WASHED first (I always wash clothes and linens before using). Some reviews said changed after washing.
Well, I washed in cold on delicate setting in a delicates bag and dried on low heat. I also used fabric softener. THEY CAME OUT GREAT.
COLORS - I chose the DARK COLORS as I wear with my darker sweats and almost exclusively indoors and to sleep in in colder temps. LOVE these colors. If you wear darker colors and don't like prints, I think you would like these.
QUALITY - SO FAR, SO GOOD. If they start wearing too soon or anything changes, I will UPDATE right away.
CONS: None that I can tell so far. Just if you want the really FLUFFY type of socks, you probably won't like these. If you're looking for a warm, cozy, wooly winter sock, you might want to give them a try.
