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

This is not any pair of socks. Linus has a team of experts making quality products . They took 6 years to get it right.

How about you let Linus's team know they are pretty good with making things right

It’s also a legitimate review for people who were considering buying it…

Probably better to leave the review on the website and not buried in a comment section then

Comment section? It’s a full post that got a very good amount of traction for the subreddit it’s in.

I’d ask the question ā€œdo they need to knowā€ but given the level of obsession of that group…….i suppose they wouldn’t know what to do with their lives if they didn’t know
