I bought these because I needed/wanted very cushioned socks to wear to work (business casual attire) and the reviews indicated that these would fit the bill.  Not so.  I'm on my feet a lot and have flat feet and need a lot of support.  I'm sad to say that I'm disappointed in these, but only as far as the cushioning goes.  The quality is good and so far they've washed and worn well.  But again I'm back to having to wear 2 pairs of socks to get enough cushioning.  I have socks that are cushioned enough but they're more casual/boot socks and don't really go with business casual attire.  I guess I'll have to keep looking.  Disappointed.
