Fruit of the Loom Full Cushion Work Crew Socks (6 Pair Pack) (Men Big & Tall)

THE FRUIT OF THE LOOM HEAVY DUTY SOCKS ARE EXCELLENT. THE FIRST THING I NOTICED WAS HOW SOFT THEY WERE WHEN I OPENED THE PACKAGE. THE FIRST THING I DO WHEN I GET NEW CLOTHING IS WASH THEM. I THREW FIVE OF THE SIX PAIRS INTO A LOAD OF WHITES. AFTER THE DRIER WAS COMPLETED I COMPAIRED THE ONE UNWASHED PAIR TO THE WASHED PAIRS, NO NOTICABLE SHRINKAGE. THEY WERE STILL SOFT. THE NEXT MORNING I PUT ON A PAIR OF MY NEW WASHED FRUIT OF THE LOOM HEAVY DUTY SOCKS. I WEAR A SIZE 12 WIDE IF I CAN NOT FIND A WIDE I USED TO GET A 13. THE FRUIT OF THE LOOM HEAVY DUTY SOCKS FIT PERFECT AROUND MY FEET. THE BASE OF THE SOCKS ARE SO VERY COMFORTABLE. THEY STAY UP CLOSE TO THE ENDING OF MY CALF AND THEY DO NOT CUT IN TO MY LEG. THEY HAVE A SPANDEX RING INSIDE THE TOP RING OF THE SOCKS. VERY COMFORTABLE FOR ME SO FAR. I ALSO HAVE NOTICED THAT WALKING IN THE FRUIT OF THE LOOM HEAVY DUTY SOCKS ARE ALOT BETTER THAN MY OLD SOCKS, I SHOULD SAY WAY MORE COMFORTABLE. THE SOCKS CLAIM TO COME WITH ANTIMICROBIAL ODER CONTROL. I HAVE NO WAY TO TEST THIS. THE SOCKS ALSO CLAIM TO HAVE REINFORCED HEEL AND TOE. I THINK THE WHOLE BASE OF THE SOCKS ARE REINFORCED, INCLUDIND THE TOP PORTION OF THE TOES. I HAVE NOT BOUGHT FRUIT OF THE LOOM BRAND IN PROBABLY CLOSE TO 30 YEARS, POOR QUALITY AT THAT TIME MADE ME NOT TRUST THE FRUIT OF THE LOOM BRAND. NOW AFTER THE REVIEW OF THESE SOCKS I HAVE A NEW OUTLOOK ON FRUIT OF THE LOOM. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AND I AM GOING TO BUY MY SON A PACK OF THE SAME EXACT SOCKS FROM MY REVIEW. SO COMFORTABLE

I was expecting the socks to be much longer than they are, yet they are barely above the ankle. The thickness is standard, nothing exceptional. I prefer a thick foot portion on my sock to aid in comfort as well as warmth. These are the same as any other sock I have purchased with the exception of a particular brand I try to stick with just because the foot is thick, well weaved, cushioned and warm. I do like the reinforced toes as with all socks - that seems to be a plus. The seem on top of the toe instead of at the end is a nice addition. I would not go out of my way to recommend these but they are no different than most socks on the markert. Not better nor worse.
