These are the best socks so far I have bought from Gold Toe.  No pilling like previous Gold Toe socks I have bought in the past.  Material exactly as described.  I can usually get 3 or so years out of Gold Toe socks, these might last even longer. Comfortable and the fit is good, especially since I have a small foot (size 8) and most socks are fit large, but these fit perfectly.  Would highly recommend these socks for work, play or just about anything. I would also like to add that Pima Cotton is different than regular cotton, it will last 50% longer than regular cotton and is highly absorbent which is good if your feet sweat a lot.  It is somewhat thicker and softer than regular cotton and warmer in winter.  The main advantage of Pima Cotton is that it is very durable these socks should last a long time.
