Dahlgren

These are about on par with your average sock. They seem to be made off wool (I have no way of testing them). Smartwool socks and Thorlo's are more comfortable.

These socks are really nice. They are stretchy but hold their shape. I wanted a thinner sock so my shoe still fits the way I like it to. I don't like a bulky sock that uses too much shoe room. These are really soft and wicking. my feet stay dry!

Love these socks. So much cushion and they have small sizes (4-6) which is difficult to find. Great warmth but my feet aren't sweating.

This is exactly what I was looking for in a boot sock- but I don't like the design that much. I bought these to wear in knee high boots and rain boots. I wanted a very thin woolen sock. It is a little snug in the calf but mine are slightly larger than average. I expect that will help them with staying up over time. They are similar to other thinner wool Smartwool socks in texture. They do not have extra cushion at the toe or heel (true to description). Would like to have bought only 1 or two - but they come in a three pack at Zappos.

These socks feel great. I've worn other no-show height Dahlgrens that eventually thinned in the heel so these were a replacement. They fit more snuggly than my old ones - hugging the foot in a comfortable way. They are soft and warm. I love that they contain alpaca wool in the toe. My old pair, likely a different style, pilled a bit over time - but it was worth it to me to wear them on cold hardwood floors and as moderately cushioned socks in sneakers. I've never had a problem with them falling off at the heel.

These are the best socks on the market today. I've been buying this brand for about 10 years and nothing compares.

The most supportive, cushy, comfortable running/workout sock I've ever worn. They stay in place perfectly, and don't slip down my ankle. I'm a woman with size 10.5/11 running shoe, and this men's style in size large fit just right. These socks are worth every penny!

Nice comfy socks. Doesn't slide down. Good cushion for those who like thicker socks on the run.

Okay, I love these socks. They are so incredibly soft under your feet and the top fits so nice and snug -- am buying more so I don't have to wait until laundry day! And love the design at the top!

Got these for my wife for Christmas. She is very cold-natured. She absolutely loves these. They are warm, comfortable and fit very well. They are of excellent quality. She has a narrow foot, and these hug the contour very well. Did I mention excellent quality?

Warm and snug fitting in the foot. I don't like anything tight around my legs, and the tops of the socks aren't too tight.

I bought these for my father who is 83. He loved them! They are warm but not too heavy and just the right length for him, not too long, not too short. I do not know how well they'll keep because it is hard for me to check that as they live abroad.

These argyle socks are fantastic! I got the brown/green ones and a pack of the blue. They both add a nice touch to my dressy casual wardrobe. They are comfortable and great in warm or cool weather. I highly recommend them and wish Dahlgren would come out with additional color variations (not into the black one given what I wear).

Just returned these socks. :-( I bought them after being very happy with the Dahlgren backpacking socks; however these have a bulky upside seam across the toes, unlike the other style. If your feet aren't as sensitive as mine you might be OK, the rest of the sock seemed very nice.

When I received these socks I was disappointed thinking they were too thick. Once I wore them on an Ireland vacation involving a lot of walking I was in love with them. The shoes I wore on the trip were comfortable for walking and not bulky so didn't have strong support. These socks made up for the heavy structure that a lot of walking shoes have making them less versatile and unattractive. I almost think I could have trekked around barefoot in these socks!

To date have worn them on short hikes (7-10 miles) in tropical environment and they are soft, supple and breath. In June I am using them on the Inca Trail, a more exhaustive test.

Even though I wear a size 6.5 shoe, I need socks that start with size 4 and that is hard to find. But these fit beautifully. Lots of cushion on the sole, very warm. I have some in black, too. Excellent buy.

Gave as a gift to my son, he loves the comfort, wash-ability. Great as a work sock, so far tough enough to be a house slipper.

I've purchased Dahlgren socks in the past, and these did not disappoint. They are as soft as any sock I have every owned. The alpaca wool adds a wonderful feel with the merino wool. They feel great and do an excellent job at wicking away moisture. I use them for weekends and days when a slightly heavier sock is needed. These will be your feet's best friends!

The light hikers are great for trail running, especially in less than perfect weather. They keep my feet safe from blisters, even when soaking wet from rain and snow. This is the brand I wear for extended runs and hikes. I also love the heavier backpacking socks. So does my husband. My feet are always cold and these socks are the first to keep my feet warm at home and when camping in wet, 35 degree weather.
