These socks do not stay up over the calf!!!!!!!!!!!!! November 7, 2008 The socks have a nice thickness but they DO NOT stay up over the calf. How irritating is that having to stop all the time to pull them up? Any bending at all and down they go.
My 1 star rating (I would have given them a minus rating if I could, I am just not happy at all paying $15 for a pair of socks that do not do what I bought them for!) was only because they are thick and of good quality but I bought them to wear under winter pants to protect up to the knee from wind chill, I basically threw them into the back of the sock drawer and that is where they will stay until I eventually throw them in the trash.
I have three different types of Thorlo over-the-calf socks and NOT A SINGLE PAIR stays up over the calf.
Final comment; $15 for a thick pair of over-the-calf socks that fall below the knees, look for a different brand, these are terribly irritating.
Thorlo basketball Socks September 6, 2008 I wear these every day. They are absolutely outstanding, heavy padding on the bottom, great for walking and hiking.
These socks wear like iron July 12, 2007 I've been buying them for years. I buy a few pairs every couple of years. They are hands-down the best socks I have ever worn. They are worth the price. They are very thich...just a FYI.
