    not the best socks ever. the coloring on the heel is way higer than it should be when i put them on. but for free, they will make a nice lounge socks.

    the size is osfm. :?

    the last time I wore socks was when the Seahawks spanked the Rams @ MNF

    Damn that was a cold night at he stadium...

    (the following is for thread intregity-just for you Jiggles)

    Sock Stats= knee high, cotton blend
    Sock average=3rd time worn, still good condition. Worn for appx 8 hours

    Previously, the last time I wore socks was in Canananadah-Edmonton to be exact.

    Sock Stats= Knee High, sheer nylon
    Sock average=1st time worn, they were destroyed by the end of the night...worn for appx 12 hours.

    I think 'sock sizes' are a joke...ladies' socks come in teh standard 'Size 9-11'...I don't know any ladies that have a size 11 shoe. :? I wear a size 5½ shoe, and most socks fit me ok...maybe that's the problem, maybe I should try buying kids' socks to see if they fit better.

    I have a few pair of athletic socks that I bought my jr year of high school (12 years ago). These were the long socks that went up past the calves...think of the Kerry Kittles look. The rec league basketball team I was on decided to adopt that look. Granted, nowadays the elastic is gone so I only wear them when they will be covered up by long pants.

    On average, I'd guess I get a good 5 or 6 years out of a package of socks. They tend to last that long because my mother-in-law always gives everyone socks for Christmas. This has led to a longer shelf life for my socks. Now, the thermal socks I have will last forever because it doesn't get cold enough in South Carolina to wear them. Bought them for a winter trip to Wyoming a few years ago and haven't worn them since.

    Does anybody wear 2 pairs of socks at the same time?
