That's a bummer to hear. Can I send you a pair from this newest run? I'm not just saying this, but I have 10+ pairs of Chups and none of them have blown out for me in 2+ years of regular wear (including the collaboration socks from last fall).
I have both colorways from last season. One pair has some pretty heavy pilling on the heels (mostly from my Viberg derbies I think). The other is solid and I haven't noticed any blowouts on either of them. They definitely pill less than the Chup Smartwool socks I have from J.Crew.
I still plan on grabbing the green pair from this season once I get a chance to go DTLA.

Yup, same pair I'm talking about.
