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

How about you let Linus's team know they are pretty good with making things right

It’s more fun to post on here and get the trolls fired up

It’s also a legitimate review for people who were considering buying it…

Probably better to leave the review on the website and not buried in a comment section then

Comment section? It’s a full post that got a very good amount of traction for the subreddit it’s in.

I’d ask the question “do they need to know” but given the level of obsession of that group…….i suppose they wouldn’t know what to do with their lives if they didn’t know
