Pros & Cons
Pros
This xl size sock fits really tight on my foot and calf. They are true to size. I like that they aren't tight fitting around the foot and ankle.
They are very reasonably priced for the quality. After extending my search i ran into these, oand am super happy, it is exactly what i need. A bit pricey, but worth it.
Cons
They are pretty much normal width socks (label says 25% looser than normal socks which may? These socks of medium weight are not loose fit. Very frustrating, especiallywhen thet are advertised as over sized.
Maybe i have my expectations too high. Very disappointed. Gave them away. I'm sorry to give these socks, which are mostly nice, a 1-star rating.
They are somewhat soft, though i found them just slightly scratchy. And the merino wool is rough to touch and unpleasant. Also, socks are somewhat abrasive on top of your foot.
These use too much elastic and they are too tight on top. My feet are size 11 ee (woman) and the top is way too tight to conveniently fit over my foot.
Highlights
Quality
The quality of the socks is excellent
They are very reasonably priced for the quality
Every amazon review reader knows sizing issues lie with the product
If you want to wear them in actual shoes or boots and you are borderline between the sizes go with the smaller size
Price
The price may be a bit high but they are well worth it
Packaging/appearance
It does take a couple of washes for them to soften up more but they are not scratchy and are already pretty soft out of the package
Competitiveness
My husband wears a size 13 shoe and has large calfs
If i buy these high priced socks again i will move up one size for my shoe size

I think that for the warmest feet one needs to buy oversized alpacamerino hand knitted socks from small businesses online or roadside ranches
