These are made in Pakistan. They seem to be made of wool and other fibers.  They have a machine oil smell. I washed all three pair before I wore them.  I agree with others that say they are thin and may not wear well. Since I will be using mine for sleep socks they won't see much wear and tear.

Not bad but not good either. It depends on what you use them for.  Expect to pay much more for heavy merino socks that will last a while!  You get what you pay for.
