Alvada Heat Thermal Wool Socks for Iciness Moisture Wicking and Breathable Comfortable Boot Socks

Best wool socks!
These socks are so very soft and warm. The cuffs aren’t too tight which is a huge plus. I love all of the directions on how to make them soft and fluffy. It’s easy to follow instructions

Not as breathable as they used to be
DURABLE, WASHES WELL, COMFORTABLE, MEDIUM CUSHION & COMPRESSION, NEUTRAL COLOR, THICK, YET NOT EXCESSIVELY BULKY… BUT NOT QUITE AS “BREATHABLE” AS THEY USED TO BE.I bought these socks a little over a year ago and they were PERFECT for keeping my feet warm and comfy in during the cold winter. I wanted to buy more so I looked thru my previous orders to ensure I picked the same item and size to buy. The new socks I received are just slightly lighter in color on the outside and mostly white on the inside (as opposed to the mostly gray inside color of the older ones). The new ones also feel “stuffier.” They’re still soft and keep my feet very warm, but they’re not as breathable as the ones I previously bought. Sometimes, I have to take them off while lounging around the house because they make my feet so sweaty. The older ones never (and still don’t) make my feet sweat. I think the company may have changed the fiber content or ratio.I would buy these socks again. But I wouldn’t pay $19.99 for a set of 3 pairs again. I was willing to pay that much for the quality of the first set of socks I received. Now I wouldn’t pay more than $10 given the reduced breathability of the last set I received. I’d recommend buying these when they’re on sale. (I don’t usually have a problem with my feet sweating. If you do, then I’d recommend you really whether these socks will be tolerable for you.)The size chart seems true to size.My shoe size is 8.5 in US Womens. Both times I bought these socks in size S-M. Both times, they fit very well.These socks fit snug on my feet and usually stay pretty snug after an entire day of walking around. They don’t ever stretch out to the point of bunching up or twisting around. However, they do loosen up quite a bit if I’ve been running around in them on carpet (without shoes) most of the day. I’ve gotten away with wearing a pair 2 days in a row (taking them off while sleeping at night). They were still comfy, but by the end of the 2nd day, they were just loose enough for me to not try wearing them 1 more day.They wash well. I didn’t follow the instructions. I just threw them in the washer and dryer (room temp water and low heat). They visibly shrank a lot, but still fit fine when I put them on. They were just a bit shorter. I actually liked that they were more snug after washing. (Note: They fit well when wearing before and after laundering. I see no need to size up or down unless you’re in between sizes… prefer to wear your socks a certain way… or have special considerations like very wide or very narrow feet.)These socks provide adequate cushion and compression on my feet. I have high arches and the heels & balls of my feet are usually sore if I wear poor quality socks. These actually help relieve some end-of-day aching. There aren’t really any parts that feel uncomfortable… unless I put the sock on pretty crooked. Then I can feel a small seam that’s supposed to sit unnoticably above your toes. (But that’s a user error.) The socks are lightweight, considering how much warmth they provide. They have a little bulk to them, but are still comfortable to wear with lined winter boots. (Some socks are so bulky they cause my feet to go numb. These don’t.) The socks work well for hiking in cold weather or when you know you’re going to be on your feet all day.DURABLE: I wear these socks a lot… almost year round. My toes and part of my feet tend to change colors and even go numb in slightly chilly temperatures… even due to the indoor air conditioner being set a little too low. The ones I bought over a year ago still wear well despite repeated machine washing & drying. They’ve started to acquire some fuzz balls or pilling at the heels and tips of my toes, but that’s about it. I’ve mostly been using the newer ones lately to see if there are any “wear” issues. So far, they’re holding up very well to very frequent washing & wearing.

Fire socks
Dark colored, very thick, but light weight, very soft, extremely warm, called wool but feels like cotton socks, excellent cost for 5 pairs, looks expensive, moisture resistant socks❤️

good value
Much warmer than the cotton Reebok socks I wear for everyday. Comfortable and fit well. I wear an 8 1/2 shoe and the S/M fit perfectly. Washed in cold and air dried with virtually no shrinkage but also washed in warm and dried on medium heat and had some shrinkage but still fit well. Good value for what I wanted.

Good quality, compression and keep feet warm and dry. Had bought these previously and have lasted several years.
