I have a teen age son who can go through socks at an outrageous rate and these are holding up. He isn't ripping holes in these and I have given ample time from my purchase to writing this review. My complaint over the years is how the elastic doesn't last. One thing I have learned to do because of wear and tear and bleaching you can weaken the elastic so I have for years starting rolling them not folding the tops over but laying the socks on top of each other and rolling them plus it makes for much more room in the drawer and looks tidier. These aren't gold toes so  know they won't last for years on end but they will be fine for my son who grows at an outrageous rate and will eventually rip holes in them.
