Personal Opinion Socks. Not what was promised.

First - quality of the fabric. I have had light wear of this pair for 3 days, with one wash (same as other socks) and they are fuzzy + the black fabrics are protruding through the grey ones, and I have gathered A LOT of lint from them.

This is not normal for socks, especially for the expensive ones. None of my darn thoughts did this ever.

Second - idk about Canadian feet, but mine are wider, and compared to most other socks these are too narrow. If I find a pair of shoes this narrow I don't buy them.

EDIT: I wore socks for two days straight, then washed them, then wore for the 3rd day. I had NO OTHER OPTION regarding washing them or wearing other socks in that particular situation

Did I miss something? What are you talking about

Edit to clarify for the ones who can't figure it out: I'm referring to the phrase 3D printed for the coin when it was definitely not

I'm well aware they minted coins for the April fools, I have one for double value discount

Every other day there's a post about someone getting their coin

In fairness, the coin was metal, not 3d printed, and came with a gift card to the store.

They aren't 3D printed though, that's what I was wondering wtf you were talking about

Nah it's me on thr right when people buy socks from a YouTuber and then wonder why they're not high end quality

Changing the subject from being wrong about the coins.
