These socks for me have exceeded my expectations. This is my second order of socks and soon to make a third order . The first pair I had for a few months. I keep looking for them in my drawer to put on like everyday. I got so tired of digging them out of the laundry to wash again, I decided to just get more.The cushioning is there everytime. It has not wore out yet. I wear them to work 5 days a week, from 5am to 10pm.The compression is perfect, not too tight or loose. My feet feel better at the end of the day than in other pairs of socks.The fit was perfect, even on the second order. I do recommend highly that you use their ordering chart for the best fit. (Do not size down if you are on the boarder line.)The wicking ability is so quick. I have high end hiking, working, skiing, running and other athletic socks. All pale in comparison to these socks.Another unmentioned feature is that these socks do not roll in your shoes or slide around. Your feet stay planted in position in your shoes no matter what the activity. ( I am a very active athlete in multiple sports.)The wear so far has been phenomenal. The socks wash well and return to original shape and size. (I have washed the first order a lot before I got a second order.)I am on my feet all day, up and down, ladders and steps, in and out of trucks, and walking on concrete floors. These socks have saved my feet and legs from a lot of fatigue.Give them a try. They are not that expensive in comparison to others that claim the same features. I can assure you they would be perfect for everyday, hiking, running and all manner of sports.Enjoy and comment back if you would like.Thanks for reading. Happy trails!
