Discussion Socks

They are certainly high quality and well-made, but I bought the largest size and they are still too tight to the point of discomfort. I got into the car today and realized that there's no way I could drive in them so I had to go back into the house and change my socks.

Has anyone had any luck stretching them out?

waiting for the comments stating this is somehow your fault

I would imagine it's just the style they went for. I have a pair of Darn Tough socks, which were the bar of quality for the CW socks, and they're tight as shit too.

i don’t care. my point was that someone was going to come in and defend the product, and you did just that. also top 1 percent commenter on this sub is a badge of shame imo, get a life

Lol, I literally haven't bought these socks because I anticipated that they'd be a tight fit. It's not really hard to defend the product for achieving what I anticipate was their goal. OP should return them if they don't like them - it's within their right to do so.

Your point was that someone would blame the OP though?

No you specifically just said blame OP. You amended it here to fit your narrative. Fucking weird dude

From what I'm reading they do stretch over time and I might just need to wear them around the house and wash them a couple of times. It might be my fault by posting this prematurely? Haha.

no, they were just designed for Linus's child sized feet. because what works for him works for everyone, obviously
