First off I'll say right up front that I'm not a big fan of ankle socks. You might ask then why I would buy 4 pairs. Well, like them or not they look less ridiculous when wearing shorts and running and whatnot, so I sacrificed. That being said I'm not rating them a 3 solely because I dislike this type of product, that obviously wouldn't be fair. As someone not used to ankle socks maybe this is normal, but I do find them a bit hard to get on and to be sure they're fully "on" and properly aligned. They're also not the most comfortable material, feel a bit cheap maybe. They're decent socks, they do the job, but nothing special.
