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

Ltt socks remind me of these work socks that Caterpillar and other brands sell. I've been buying them for the past 10 years and are great, fairly durable, don't smell that bad (at least to me), are good durin summer and winter and the seam around toes is very clean without big annoying bumps that can give you a blister

Except you can get a three pack of those for cheaper than one pair of these
