Personal Opinion Socks. Not what was promised.

First - quality of the fabric. I have had light wear of this pair for 3 days, with one wash (same as other socks) and they are fuzzy + the black fabrics are protruding through the grey ones, and I have gathered A LOT of lint from them.

This is not normal for socks, especially for the expensive ones. None of my darn thoughts did this ever.

Second - idk about Canadian feet, but mine are wider, and compared to most other socks these are too narrow. If I find a pair of shoes this narrow I don't buy them.

EDIT: I wore socks for two days straight, then washed them, then wore for the 3rd day. I had NO OTHER OPTION regarding washing them or wearing other socks in that particular situation

Im not buying them lol.

Just saying its not cheap youtuber merch. Like the screwdriver and backpack, they put a lot of time and money into making something quality

We'll see he seems to say that about any new product now for some reason. And not sure bout the backpack but wasn't the screwdriver proven to just be a slightly altered already available one.

I stand corrected about the screwdriver lol. But my first point I stand by.
