Nice soft cotton, good shape, elastic that holds them on without cutting into her ankles. When she outgrew her first and second sets of socks, I ordered another set. The socks keep her feet warm, are anti-skid, easy wash and wear, and do the job when the shoes/snow boots come off when entering the house. I recommend these socks for toddlers who need the anti-skid bottoms and the socks are easy for toddlers to put on and take off.
