Review on Angelina Dozen Pack Cotton Socks 3102_WhiteM by John Martin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good socks but the color is better than advertised.

These are good socks - nothing compared to socks. However, if you're buying them to dye, be aware of the following: the fabric composition, according to the packaging, is 77% polyester, 20% cotton, and 3% spandex - obviously it shouldn't take dye well. I spent 15 minutes in the recommended hour-long dye bath and was concerned my "orange" socks would look horribly red, so I stopped the process. My orange socks are VERY red. They soaked up paint like crazy. I can customize, no worries, but I'm disappointed that I based my process on the fabric content given and it's clearly not accurate.

Pros
  • Clothing, shoes and jewelry
Cons
  • unreliable
