As a person lives in California, I found these socks are great for mid-season weather, as they are neither thick nor thin, also they are extremely soft, as an allergic person to the synthetic fibers, these pairs solved a great deal of my dilemma with socks, especially the cuff part (upper top) in which I can't stand any kind of elastic pressure, but the compromise was that they slip down and this I can live with!
The colors displayed in the photos (except the dark ones) are darker or dimmer than reality so expect lighter colors when you receive them, in my case of purchase the beige and steel blue was different than I expected.
I asked for an exchange for the steel blue pairs with dark blue and didn't receive a communication from the seller, but only an email from Amazon informing me that the case is closed, which left me in vouge situation.
After three days I received the exchange that I asked for. Many thanks for the seller.
bottom line, they lost 1 star only for miscommunication and unclear display for the photos, BUT they are great and I WILL BUY IT AGAIN!
