Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Merino Wool Ragg Socks 10" 2-Pair

Absolutely horrid quality with thick seam that rides on the tops of your toes. Returned.

The socks are too small. I ordered the largest size. I wear 10.5 shoe and these are just too tight. I have other wool socks from another company and these are uncomfortable feeling on my feet. I would not recommend them and wish I had not ordered them. On a positive note, the color is very nice.

I thought the 10" measurement was from the ankle up - I had purchased the 15" socks a couple years ago - very disappointing the 15" socks are not available. I returned the short socks.

Heels worn out in 6 mo.

These are very thick heavy wool socks not what I expected.

Too big/loose. Didn't fit snug on my feet. I wear a size 9 women's. Returned.

I was very excited to receive these socks after waiting two months. Unfortunately they were so scratchy and uncomfortable I had to return them. I was very disappointed in the quality of wool and doubly disappointed to get charged $6.50 to return them. I will not order from llbean again.

The socks tore after the third time I wore them, I discovered this flaw when I took off my shoe and my big toe was protruding through the sock. Very disappointed with this purchase

Too small. Wrong color - not the same (grey) as I saw on your site and thought I ordered. Worry about their shrinking...and price was NOT low. Gave them to the wife- Will think twice before ordering from LL Bean again. Sad....

Bear feet - that's what these socks feel like in a pair of boots! Rough and uncomfortable but warm

Appalling degradation in quality. These are my long time favorites, which I wear all winter. My replacement set popped a hole less than a month after having them. I'll be taking these back!

I've had a lot better rag wool socks and as far as I'm concerned, all these positive reviews are misleading. I ordered a Medium size which was supposed to fit a size 9 shoe. That's a joke. Size 6 would be more accurate. I find them rough feeling too. Even though they say the socks are machine washable, I wouldn't because they shrink. The wool seems to be holding up well after 2 months, but they're not soft and I can feel the seam in the toe. If I were to buy them again I'd order a bigger size, but I won't buy these again at any price.

Wanted to like these so much but I'm on my third pair now and I keep getting holes in the heels. I don't over wash them and they fit like normal. But I'm not sure you could wear these on a regular basis outside of just padding around your home, feelin' cozy. If need warm socks to wear out with shoes, look for something more darn tough. ;) ;)

Warm but much too short- looking for socks with boot height

A year ago I ordered a two-pack of Adult Merino Wool Ragg Socks. The socks are warm and fit well and launder beautifully, but . . . Both pairs now have holes in the underpart of the heel. I have been shopping at LLBean for 50 years, and this is the first time that I have ever been disappointed in the quality of your merchandise. The rest of the sock is like new. I just ordered another two-pack because I like the socks, but I am discouraged by the trend of having ragg wool wear out in a year.

See other review. These are the same and equally as thick

These were nice until the first time I washed them. I hung them to dry and when I took them off the line I noticed the banding was fraying excessively. Totally not what I expected from L.L.Bean. I won't be purchasing anything else from them. Total lack of quality.

tight on feet

I Purchased the socks in the middle of January 2021 and here it is March 1 and they already have holes in them toes and heels.

I bought these a little over 3 months ago and the heels completely wore through on both pairs. I would hope that these socks would last longer than 3 months!

I would love to try these on and be able to wear them but they still smell after washing them 6 times: in the washing machine, by hand, soaking them, turning them inside out and washing again, sprinkling baking soda on them, etc. They smell is faint, but still there. It's a very bad chemical or plastic smell.

The MERINO Wool socks, quite pricey, are beautiful BUT you sent 2 completely different sizes. They were meant as a Christmas gift for my husband but only the gray pair fits him (shoe size 10.5-11), The Camo colored pair fits me (shoe size 8.5-9). Where is your quality control??? I expect better from LLBean and will not pay to ship them back for your mistake.

My shoes size is 11.5, and I ordered these in XL. They appear are well-constructed, in the sense that they are well-sown and it is good quality wool. But, they are tightly sown and there is zero give to them, and due to the narrow leg part and heel part, it is extremely difficult to put on. (I stopped wearing them due to the hassle) I used to really have to torque on the socks with both hands to get my foot past the heel, then I'd have to grab the sock and yank until it sat square at my heel. While this worked, it clearly is not good for the sock, and the heel part is already coming apart. This was the XL size! Sorry to say these were disappointing. And, they are not cheap.

These ragg wool socks are very cheap and thin. I bought 4 pairs just over a month ago, and two of them already have holes in the bottom. I wear them inside only. Previously purchased these from LL Bean with no problem, they must have changed manufacturers. Expensive, but very cheaply made.

The heels on these wool socks wore out within one month, wearing them no more than 10 times. The quality of the wool is clearly very poor.
