Alvada Warm Thermal Wool Socks for Winter Moisture Wicking and Breathable Cozy Boot Socks

I bought these socks for the cold northern winters and they have been great. They are soft, comfortable and thick. They are well made and fit my feet well inside my work boots.

I bought these socks a year ago, our winters can get cold and my feet do feel the cold! I bought another 3 pair package because I was very pleased with the comfort and warmth they provided.

Soft and very warm they are thick but the quality is very good I washed and dried them and they were the same

Toasty and comfortable, and although the instructions say not to put them in the drier, I did. They shrunk in calf length but not foot. The difference is noticeable from when they were new, but not so much as to be a major concern. They did not get tighter, just a little shorter.

DURABLE, WASHES WELL, COMFORTABLE, MEDIUM CUSHION & COMPRESSION, NEUTRAL COLOR, THICK, YET NOT EXCESSIVELY BULKY... BUT NOT QUITE AS "BREATHABLE" AS THEY USED TO BE.I bought these socks a little over a year ago and they were PERFECT for keeping my feet warm and comfy in during the cold winter. I wanted to buy more so I looked thru my previous orders to ensure I picked the same item and size to buy. The new socks I received are just slightly lighter in color on the outside and mostly white on the inside (as opposed to the mostly gray inside color of the older ones). The new ones also feel "stuffier." They're still soft and keep my feet very warm, but they're not as breathable as the ones I previously bought. Sometimes, I have to take them off while lounging around the house because they make my feet so sweaty. The older ones never (and still don't) make my feet sweat. I think the company may have changed the fiber content or ratio.I would buy these socks again. But I wouldn't pay $19.99 for a set of 3 pairs again. I was willing to pay that much for the quality of the first set of socks I received. Now I wouldn't pay more than $10 given the reduced breathability of the last set I received. I'd recommend buying these when they're on sale. (I don't usually have a problem with my feet sweating. If you do, then I'd recommend you really whether these socks will be tolerable for you.)The size chart seems true to size.My shoe size is 8.5 in US Womens. Both times I bought these socks in size S-M. Both times, they fit very well.These socks fit snug on my feet and usually stay pretty snug after an entire day of walking around. They don't ever stretch out to the point of bunching up or twisting around. However, they do loosen up quite a bit if I've been running around in them on carpet (without shoes) most of the day. I've gotten away with wearing a pair 2 days in a row (taking them off while sleeping at night). They were still comfy, but by the end of the 2nd day, they were just loose enough for me to not try wearing them 1 more day.They wash well. I didn't follow the instructions. I just threw them in the washer and dryer (room temp water and low heat). They visibly shrank a lot, but still fit fine when I put them on. They were just a bit shorter. I actually liked that they were more snug after washing. (Note: They fit well when wearing before and after laundering. I see no need to size up or down unless you're in between sizes... prefer to wear your socks a certain way... or have special considerations like very wide or very narrow feet.)These socks provide adequate cushion and compression on my feet. I have high arches and the heels & balls of my feet are usually sore if I wear poor quality socks. These actually help relieve some end-of-day aching. There aren't really any parts that feel uncomfortable... unless I put the sock on pretty crooked. Then I can feel a small seam that's supposed to sit unnoticably above your toes. (But that's a user error.) The socks are lightweight, considering how much warmth they provide. They have a little bulk to them, but are still comfortable to wear with lined winter boots. (Some socks are so bulky they cause my feet to go numb. These don't.) The socks work well for hiking in cold weather or when you know you're going to be on your feet all day.DURABLE: I wear these socks a lot... almost year round. My toes and part of my feet tend to change colors and even go numb in slightly chilly temperatures... even due to the indoor air conditioner being set a little too low. The ones I bought over a year ago still wear well despite repeated machine washing & drying. They've started to acquire some fuzz balls or pilling at the heels and tips of my toes, but that's about it. I've mostly been using the newer ones lately to see if there are any "wear" issues. So far, they're holding up very well to very frequent washing & wearing.

1st, when i got these socks they were in a air sealed package which is a nice feature never seem this done before.2nd, the quality of these socks is outstanding, well make, sturdy and thick and cozy wool socks. They do keep my feet warm and breathable so my feet do not sweat wearing them all day.3rd, they do keep my feet dry and very warm when i am out in the cold all day no matter what kind of shoes i wearing. They DO NOT make my feet itch due to inner lining in them.They suggest u put them in the drier for 15 min in the dryer on low heat & do it, it worth it when u wear them.I like them so much i bought them twice and they are the only socks i wear now on for the winter season.Great wool sock!!!!!!!!!

These are very good winter socks. They are very comfortable, breathable, and keep your feet warm. I wear a size 12 and the problem I have with buying socks online is sizing, they always seem to run smaller than advertised, and have a tendency to shrink when washing, so I always order the next size larger. I ordered size L/XL which is size 12-14 and they fit my feet perfectly. They are thick enough to provide very good warmth but they are not bulky and fit well in my boot, and they fit just as well in my winter boots as they do in my regular shoes. I followed the washing instructions and turned them inside out, washed them in cold water, and hung them to dry (no dryer) as I do with all of my wool socks. They did not shrink and fit just as good as when new. I'm very satisfied with these winter socks.

Very comfortable, warm, will buy again
