My daughter and I always have disagreements. . . loves all things under armor and I think they are terribly overpriced. Here I said it. She loves these socks, she just loves them. I have to admit these are good socks - a soft material that is also firm and should wear well. The toe seam is evenly stitched and is in the right place without disturbing the toes. The top band is tight enough that they won't fall off without causing discomfort. They have extra padding on the soles and seem to wick away moisture so their feet don't feel as sweaty as cheaper sock brands. BUT $9 for a pair of socks? Oh. These socks were made in China, 56% Polyester, 24% Cotton, 17% Nylon, 3% Spandex, and have been washed and dried with no issues.
