Reviewed by TedT from Garfield Heights, Ohio on Wednesday, May 22, 2013B ought these for hot weather wear. They are as advertised. Had a slight snag in one pair when recv'd. After washing it ended up being a hole. The cost was so cheap I didn't bother complaining. Second pair seems okay.

Reviewed by Ken from San Francisco on Tuesday, April 23, 2013I use these as liner socks under my wool hiking socks to prevent blisters. They work great for that purpose. Liner socks keep your feet dry and also reduce friction against your skin. I would prefer that the fabric was a little more stretchy (like more expensive liner socks), but can't argue too much at this bargain price. I have mens size 8.5 feet and the size medium liners just barely fit me. Larger feet will be out of luck since they don't come in larger sizes.

Reviewed by 173494 from Arizona on Wednesday, April 03, 2013I hike in the deserts of Arizona where temperatures can soar. On top of that, my feet sweat profusely, because I like to wear a heavy leather hiking boot. So I'll change socks 10 times in a day just to get across the Grand Canyon. These are perfect for what I want - an extremely light, very shear, quick-drying liner sock. I will likely only need to rotate through three or four pair for a Rim to Rim. Wring them out, hang them on the pack to dry, and they should be ready to go again in an hour or two. The sales pitch says they're for cold and damp seasons - they're equally useful for hot and dry.

Reviewed by Boot Lover from Michigan on Wednesday, March 20, 2013The socks were very light weight as described. I personally thought they were more like a thicker nylon sock but great for doubling up for winter!

Reviewed by john from racine, wi on Wednesday, February 06, 2013not much to say other than these are a good value and work great as a liner. I suspect I will get holes in them but in order to wear under other socks they need to be thin.

Reviewed by hiker from Boise, Idaho on Friday, January 25, 2013Although I haven't had the chance to use them yet, they look like a good liner. Very thin fabric which is what i was looking for.

Reviewed by toganet from Buffalo, NY on Friday, January 25, 2013I bought this to hit the minimum for $.99 shipping. For that purpose it's worth it. Otherwise, avoid these socks unless you like thin, loose-fitting, transparent socks with no insulating, wicking, or cushioning capabilities. Seriously, these are so thin that I put the white ones on and my fiancee thought I was wearing pink socks.
