I got these because of the quantity to cost value, but found out they are more comfortable than I assumed. Other reviews mentioned them being thin, etc. While they aren't wool, they are just about average thickness for dress socks. I am picky about toe seams, even with the crazy inside seams I've actually found these to be comfortable for a whole day's work.

Update: After two washes I noticed they began looking a little raggedy. From a distance they still look great, and up close they look like my grandpa's socks (hand made wool socks I assume he's owned for years). I'll upload a picture so you can see what people are mentioning. Still soft and comfortable, just not as polished. I hope the pictures help you in your decision. I'm still planning on using them in their "rugged" state.

You get what you pay for... It'll be up to you to decide if it's worth it. I'll use them till they die, then look elsewhere.
