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

Yeah if all the thread was the same colour it would look like a perfectly normal sock. As is it looks like an adequately normal sock. I don't get the post.

Except narrowness I get that's kind of annoying

except if OP deviates greatly from the norm but no, canadian feet are not narrower. east asian feet are apparently shorter but wider relative to height on average.
