Customer Reviews Smartwool Everyday Popcorn Polka Dot Crew Socks

I love these socks but when I washed them (together), one of them shrunk to the point of being felted and is not wearable as it's very small and won't stretch. I thought this was odd as it only happened to one of them. Has this happened to anyone else? Weird

Ended up being too small, but am sure the large will be perfect!

Love the color & design But, this pair of socks is cut small. It's tight fitting getting it on my foot so a lot of tugging it then the nice little white heel barely fits on my heel. Not without tugging on my toes. What's up with that? Tight & short! I ordered my usual size Medium because I wear an 8 1/2 M shoe. Occasionally a size 9 M. Smartwool Medium women's is suppose to fit women up to size 9 1/2 shoes. Large begins at size 10 shoes. Do I have to size up from now on or is this a fluke? I bought them for Christmas gifts too, for Both men & women. Are all sock sizes smaller now?

I bought two pairs of socks (the other one being Cozy Cabin) - both of them were supposed to be fully cushioned. The Cozy Cabin pair is soft and warm and cushioned, however the Cozy Popcorn Snowflake is neither as soft , nor warm, nor cushioned as the other one. I would not buy it again.

I love the design and they are comfortable socks but the cushioning isn't the same as the other full cushion socks. A little bit disappointing as this is the reason for the purchase.

Good quality

Got these socks in my Christmas stocking - they have a nice pattern. However, after one washing - they no longer fit. I was very surprised at the amount of shrinkage after the very first washing. I re-wet them and hand-stretched them as best I could, but the upper edge still left impressions in my ankle after wearing -- too tight after shrinkage. There is a heavy pilling as well - they look as if they've been washed 20 times. On 2nd washing, they shrunk a bit more. I am not happy about having to "manage" my socks with re-wetting and stretching, then hang-dry -- to much work for a pair of socks. These are too expensive for the quality-level. All of my other Smartwool branded socks are much higher quality than these "popcorn polka dot crew socks". Too late to return b/c they were an early purchase of Christmas gifts -- or I certainly would. Wasted money.

These socks are gorgeous and very comfortable. So much so that, after buying and trying a pair, I went back and immediately bought 2 more pairs. I should have waited a little longer. After wearing them about 3-4 times, one of the pairs developed loose threads, another one had a hole on the inner side of my heel. I have never had a hole at that location on any sock in my life (you don't even step on the area), which tells it's a sewing or material related issue. If they could last, these would be dream socks for me. Unfortunately, they don't, and I cannot recommend them in good faith.

I usually love Smartwool socks but these are just too thin for socks that are supposed to be padded. I don't understand why they are so thin compared to the other everyday socks I bought from here. I'm disappointed.

Cute but not warm. Gets baggy when you wear them and slip around on your foot. I don't love these.

I bought 6 pairs (one of them was a promotion gift) Smartwool socks; for the first time. They are really below my expectations. They are so ordinary. I was ready to pay more for a real better wool socks. The price is not worth the benefits and the features.

These socks have really degraded in quality. I have had them for years and this year the socks are much more thinly made. Not as warm at all. Such a bummer.

These socks snagged in the washing machine on the first wash. Disappointing with how much they cost! Usually love smart wools.

I ordered 2 pair but am returning them both because both pairs have multiple snags and loose threads. Was not the quality I was expecting. The other socks I got from Smartwool are fine. It's just these that are poorly knit.

I love the way these look, but they fall down. I liked that they looked a bill taller than the crew, but they end up not.

These were very small. It's the usual size I buy, but either they were mismarked, or the manufacturer has drastically changed their sizing,

After one wear the sock heels seperated where the different coloured fabrics touch

I was very disappointed with this sock as I was so excited for it. It was way too thin and small!

Wore for casual use. They bagged out and slipped down, the branding on them wore off within a couple months, and they are showing signs of thinning / wear. I bought these at the same time as other smartwool socks and the quality of these is significantly worse than the others.

Disappointing. First time wearing them and a big snag. Snagged on what? Who knows. Poor quality

Not what I expected, they are not warm at all. Slightly small as well.

I gave my wife Snowflake pattern crew socks for Christmas and after two times of wearing them, they have developed a hole. Very disappointed with the quality of these socks especially given how expensive they are.

The socks this year have too many loose loops inside. In the past they had more comfortable linings. Bombas are better. Not even the soles of the feet are soft in this pair.

Socks frayed and basically fell apart after 1st cold water wash and line drying. Terrible product!

Seems cheaply made cuff
