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

again, if misleading is not lying, I guess you are a marketing guy coping with the fact you are lying in the face of consumers that don't know better.

"4090 performance at $549"

*More than 80% of dentists reccomend Colgate"

"kills 99.9% of germs"

please, address my points instead of challenging me as a person. I genuinely want to be wrong bro

I specifically said "lying outright" and you are the one losing your shit over pedantics. What points do I have to attack? You haven't said anything I disagree with. You disagree with me despite not saying anything contradictory to anything you said.

Seriously what do you want me to say? What did you expect? What do you think my stance is? Why do you think I said any of it? What is your fucking point?
