I purchased these socks to go with my Halloween costume. I am wearing them right now. My 2 year old daughter cried when I tried to take them off (they arrived today and I just wanted to try them on) because she thinks they are the coolest socks in the world haha and I agree! They are very warm and comfortable. They are thick socks, not cheap thin ones. They also do not cause your thighs to have "muffin tops". They do not push the fat out above the top of the sock. They look very fluid with the curves of your leg. I will have to buy more, just for fun to wear around the house ;)
