Has anyone had these socks for more than 6 months? I am looking for socks that last.

They can be a little itchy due to the wool content but for warmth they are great. Here in Vermont we need the warmth.

I have had these socks for more than 6 months and they hold up well. I am saving receipts just in case. Smart Wool socks seemed to be the greatest and Zulily had Smart Wool socks for a great deal and I went crazy buying them. Unfortunately, my big toe goes straight through them in a matter of weeks. I even exchanged them all for large (because they fit a little small) but it didn't help. I'm a little sock obsessed I know. REI socks hold up extremely well but they are not attractive.

Yes, mine have lasted a year now. They are getting a little thinner, I think mostly from washing, but are all in all quite decent shape. They clean up very well. Also, the number you receive is generous.

I wear mine every day for hours and have not yet replaced them. They are around a year old.

My husband says they have lasted him for years. He says as long as you don't put them in the dryer after you wash them they will last "forever".

I have had mine for about a couple of months and see no wear on them. It seems they last a long time as far as I can tell now. They are not perfect, but a very good way to wear a ring without having to resize. I did get this brand and I got a different brand as well, but I don't remember which is which (sorry about that). However, I use both brands, since one brand worked great with one ring I have and the other brand worked great for another ring I have. I know this isn't much help, but they both have worked on a daily basis for me and neither, as I indicated, have shown any wear (I only wear out my brain by repeating myself... lol.

For best results, part way through the dry cycle, take out the socks and turn them inside out. I have also put them through a normal dry cycle with no problems as well.

They seem to be washable if you must do it but this will probably reduce their durability. They didn't last very long for me, since I kept them on my feet for days on end. They lasted maybe a few weeks or so. If you use them for like an hour a day they should last much longer.

Mine lasted about 10 months. So life span is not an issue. If you run 5 days a week and put them into laundromat once a week, then you may want to buy 5 pairs at a time.

I know exactly what you are talking about. Previous sheets I have purchased have worn out in the foot area within one year. I have only been using these about 2 months so I don't know yet; but, I think that from what I see, they will last.

I live in Vegas and it's hot and dry. I don't know how they'd be in humid weather, but mine lasted about 6 months and definitely got crunchy after each game. Switched to a 50 dollar Nike pair and never going back.

I really like these socks, but they tend to shrink on me after a few washings. Not terrible, still comfortable but I noticed the shrinkage. I also wear 13 wide and bought the large. In the future I think that I will go up a size to xl. I think that this would be a good fit for you.

Ya I had the same problem for a while but they DO get better with time. I think it was just a matter of breaking them in. I suggest wearing them for activities like workouts and such for a while. It took about 2 weeks for them to get better for me but don't quote that time frame. Hope this helps!

I haven't used wool socks, but the thermal ones worked well on a daily basis. Hope this helps u!

I have 11 of them and use 2 daily and have done so for 18months. I haven't thrown any out yet. However, there was one batch which stretched when first washed. Otherwise I've been very happy with them.

As for now it seems to be okay. I've put them through 2 washes and so far so good. I can't say how they are going to do in a few months, but from the looks of how they are doing now... they should be okay. I hope that helps. Best....

Hello, I haven't worn them all night, but I have noticed how much warmer my knees feel when I go outside, and I live in Fairbanks, AK. They made a big difference a couple of weeks ago when it was 28 below, and I wouldn't go outside without them now. I do wear them at work for 9-1/2 hours, and find them comfortable, warm and I haven't had a problem with them for that length of time. I bought them mostly for support, but do find they give added warmth outside in the cold. This is the best answer I can give you.

I had that happen when i first started. They probably will even out. How long have you took them??
