I was looking for EXTRA durable socks because I have worn holes in ALL my regular Hanes-type white socks since we moved and our new house has a rough ceramic tile floor. So far so good with these durable socks. They are pricy for socks. But they do the job they are meant to do. I do wash them inside out every time as instructed.

They are also nice and warm compared to my older cheaper socks. Next summer, we'll see if I use them at all. I generally like ankle socks in summer anyway. These were fine during fall. My feet were not any more sweaty even with the extra thickness.
