What are these socks made out of? That's the only thing I don't see listed, is what the fibers used in these socks are. I am looking for cotton socks, or at least mostly cotton socks.

Yes, the socks are made of cotton and they provide a tide fix, I am very satisfied with this purchase.

Hello, These socks are WARM, and thought I love them for fall and winter, my feet do get rather toasty in them. I'm thinking these may not be the socks for you; the dense weave, which makes them super strong, does trap heat. Again, good for winter wear, but if your feet need more breathability in socks, then I don't think I'd go with Darn Toughs.

I wouldn't consider the socks as thin. I use them for volleyball and love them. They do have some cushioning. They work perfectly for volleyball and are currently my favorite socks. I don't, however, know about their use as softball socks.

The material has been brushed which makes the interior of the sock feel plush, rather than wool. I didn't have the same experience as others did. I drank the koolaid but My feet never got hot, Or warm from wearing these socks. I'm a professional hunting guide. Invest in some 800-1200 gram thinsulate boots. Good luck

they have a cottony feel but no where did I ever see what they are actually made of so I assume not cotton but what

I cannot say that it specifically says anywhere. I would assume cotton, but if you have allergies to one of those materials, I would contact the vendor to be certain. They are soft and sturdy and would be very comfy as pajamas - which is why I guessed cotton rather than wool. But I cannot say for certain. Sorry.

Wool makes me itch-and these don't make me itch, so I don't think there is wool in them. It says the fibers are polypropylene with silver...no idea what that means. But they are really comfortable.

I think I understand what you mean, and they're probably pretty slippery, I used them only for running--they're made of synthetic fibers so they don't cause friction/blisters while running--but, I don't think these are the socks you want

These are NO LONGER 100% cotton. They used to be. They are now 55$% cotton, 44% polyester, 1% spandex

my guess would be synthetic in the calf area and cotton or a blend for the foot area. I doubt there is wool

The retailer that originally posted the description on Amazon did that. That's why we describe them in OUR description section that they are a cotton/poly blend. Always read the 'Condition' section of each seller to see the most accurate description.

Hi Ellen, I would not advise wearing socks that are made of wool for hiking during the summer heat. these socks are 67% wool.

It seems like Dacron, Cotton, and Rubber. I don't have any problems with them--and I wear these jocks 24/7, as the result of a botched hernia repair. I think they are better than wearing nothing.

I have never heard that about cotton. I always thought cotton was a comfortable, breathable fiber. I can't offer any scientific proof other than my husband prefers these socks to all his others. They are comfortable, don't dig into the skin, are easy to put on, and seem to wash and wear well. Also, my family doctor recommended white, cotton socks. He said they were the healthiest for the skin. I bought both white and black as sometimes white socks aren't right with dress clothes. I would buy them again.

Sorry, I don't know. I through the packaging away. But I love the socks. They don't smell if I want to use it one more time before I wash them. &#128521; I am actually using them as normal socks too. Just buy 5 you get a free shipping. Don't worry. &#128522; I run almost everyday so I needed a good socks.

Yes, I love these socks because they are not thick and hot! The first pair I got for my daughter to play softball in (called an all-sports socks at the athletic store) were thick and very hot. These socks are what I would call "performance" material: thick enough to provide protection from blisters, etc., but made of polyester blend the forms to the foot and is much cooler. I really like these socks!

I don't remember from the description, but they feel like cotton, probably a blend. They have held up well.
