    These are amazingly comfortable. G you should order the wool as well.

    what shoe size are you and what size socks you´ve purchased?
    thanks in advance 😉

    G - what size are the green ones you gave to me at the VMC party?

      Agreed on the wool. They are comfy but need a little more beef IMO

                Mine arrived yesterday, great socks imo and yes I'd buy some wool ones if you get some.

                    Do they fit snug? I love the colours but hate it when socks are too loose.

                      i have one pair size large (wearing´em right now!) and i have to say that the foot fits near to perfect. only complaint i have is that the upper part of the sock doesn´t hold up so well…it slips while walking...

                        I'm a UK9 and took size L which I'd say fit pretty much perfectly, not tight, not loose and the heel in the right place.

                          Thanks guys. I hate slipping socks, so nothing for me.

                            That's why I went with medium. I'd rather they be a bit too snug and stretch to my contours then start off a little too big and uncomfortable.

                              ^i don´t think it has to do with that since the actual bottom part (the foot!) fits perfect, it´s just that the shin part is slipping down…but since they´re not our usual tennis socks i think that it´s ok!

                                Good to know, I take a UK 9/9.5 in a wide fitting, so they should work out well for me. Just waiting for Mr UPS man…

                                  99.5 - I dont think they'll fit.  But if like me you take 95 wide, they'll be fine…..

                                    Ops! Corrected… A UK 9G or US 10 EE is my best fit, depending on the make/style. Actually just got some new 062 Blunnies today in a UK 9.5 (half size is just extra width), and they perfectly. I've been wearing the 500's too big for years, but they didn't used to sell half sizes over here. Should go well with the new socks!

                                      They feel good, not too tight, not too loose. Should be perfect after a wash and tumble dry.

                                        So, I am on the verge of having worn through a pair in a day's worth of wear. Not impressed.
