Calf Sock

Calf Sock

cant believe how comfortable these socks are, they also dont seem to get pongy after a day’s wear.

Bought a couple pairs for a friend and picked up a couple for myself to try. I get really cold feet so thought maybe these would be a good alternative to my Uniqlo heat tech ones I've had since pre covid.

Pros:
- Very soft and cute
- Can tell it's good quality
- The heel and toe and balls of the feet are reinforced which as someone who's worn holes in all those areas in current socks, I really really appreciate
- Staff were super nice and very patient, and they have a 30 day satisfaction policy where you can return or exchange even if you've worn them, which I thought was just excellent customer service values in general, which we should all celebrate and recognise
- Very nice colour range and variety of styles (neck lengths), not too basic

Cons (in my personal opinion):
- The neck of the sock is really quite tight, maybe I pulled them up too high or something but it left a mark that must've been sore because it was quite itchy. For reference I would say I have average sized calves. I think these are meant to be slightly compression? But still that was definitely noticeable.
- The sizing is a bit limited, I wear a size 8.5 so was advised to get the mediums, which I could tell when I put on were slightly large. I personally have socks that are slightly large and I know it is a bit annoying because they end up sliding up and bunching a bit when you try to put on shoes, so not a huge deal breaker but personally would prefer a bigger size range maybe once the company has the budget for it.
- I think this is the way the material is woven etc, but the neck section of my socks were very so slightly sheer. Not sure if that was a design choice but is a bit odd to look at if I look too closely
- Can confirm is not as warm as heat tech, especially in the neck area, probably because of the sheerness. I'd put these somewhere between a thick cotton sock that's straight out of the packet and the heat tech. Not a deal breaker but a good thing to know when deciding to purchase.

Overall a nice splurge if you're looking to be more luxe in your sock collection, but not a life changing product in terms of its value proposition and differentiators.

I love these socks, they feel amazing and they are SO CUTE

I enjoy my Paire socks , so bought for my fussy husband . He loves the calf socks , so have just ordered 4 pairs for him . Could do with an extra large size for him , but the large just fit him . He’s an Australian size 12 shoe .
