Alpine Swiss Mens Dress Socks 6 Pair Crew Sock Cotton Dress Socks for Men Solid Ribbed Argyle Pattern Multicolor Fun Designs

Haven't had any dress occasions lately so I creatively repurposed these socks for everyday use. They are a cotton/polyester blend and manage sweat well. I daily have used them heavily with everyday shoes, work boots, hiking boots, and inline skates. In the latter case, I found these seem much like the thin smooth $16 inline skating specialty socks, so I used them for that purpose on several occasions. I also wore them inside heavier socks with work and hiking boots. Used them alone with everyday shoes. Have done a lot of heavy action with these socks and am extremely satisfied with them. In fact, I will choose this type of sock from now on for both dress and every day usage after my repurposing. Beside the inline skating, I've taken many tens of thousands of hard steps with these socks. They are durable. Significantly, the smooth finish is great for preventing blisters – the most important feature. I will also use them for inline skating from now instead of the similar feeling expensive specialty socks. They may not last as long in that usage as the specialty socks, but after my experience, I feel they'll work well. For lighter duty dress occasions, I figure they will last many years. Plus they look perfect for that usage. I chose the conservative solid color pack, but you have a choice of two other flavors to suit.
