I understand what the other reviewer was complaining about now. The opening of the sock was too narrow to fit over the foot. Once they were on, the band suffocated (more like strangled) your leg. I couldn't get the socks up to my calves. I like the military colors a lot, and the material seems comfortable. I have a size 12 foot, and bought the larger size which is supposed to fit a size 15. I doubt that these socks will fit most people. I'm sure there must be a manufacterer's defect.
