I own several pairs of these Sockwells compression socks. But this blue design is not holding up. After four wearings, the threads are pulling out and one sock now has two big holes. Other designs have lasted much better. I'll still wear these under long pants, but not with shorts. Too ratty looking. For the price, they should last longer than 4 wearings. Interesting to note, the two holes in the one sock are on the same weave line.See full review
