The basics!
These were a birthday gift for my brother. He’s told me how nice they are! I especially like that Target shipped my gifts to him!

Comfortable to begin with but got holes quickly
These were very comfortable to begin with. But after a short time they started getting holes in the heels. I have never had socks wear out in the heel so quickly.

Holes in heel by 3rd month
By month 3 I got my first hole in the heel of a sock. HALF of them have holes and it’s been 6 months. Do not buy these as even casual use wears a hole in them.

Wrong images/material description
I ordered this product online because I can't find the correct one on store shelves anymore. I'm very particular about my socks. I last picked up these socks in December from a store and the material is 48% cotton, 43% polyester, 7% rayon, 1% spandex, 1% nylon. The description on the page didn't match, but was within 1% so I proceded to order. What arrived was 73% cotton, 25% polyester, 1% spandex, 1% nylon...which doesn't match either listed above. It also does not match the images on the product page by only having "hanes" on the bottom of the sock. The barcode matches what I purchased in December so Hanes must have changed the product without making a new barcode. So now I have to either try them and won't be able to return them or drive to a very inconvenient location to return them.

Not a great look
These ankle socks go way too high (much higher than the prior ones). Not a flattering look. Okay for home, but probably wouldn’t wear otherwise

Small, meh
They feel too small, and too short. Hopefully they get softer after the first wash.

Socks too thin
These socks are so thin that I can see my skin through them when I put them in. Athletic socks should be fairly thick. Hanes, please start making these socks with the same quality they used to be. I’d keep wearing the ones I bought several years ago, but they’re starting to get holes. These new ones will wear out way too fast.

The perfect thickness!
My son has sensory issues, so he's super picky about his socks. We went through so many brands until we finally found this one. These socks are not too thin or too thick. They stretch well , so they don't fit too tight like other brands.

Loved the look, soft, but
I have big feet. These suck. Not only are the small but skinny as well so you need a skinny foot to even put your foot in these socks. It's ridiculous. All my life I have bought socks & now companies have gotten so cheap they skimp on products and rebrand them as the same. My son is an 8 and that is sock size max to fit & be comfortable. I returned them. Nonsense.

Listen to the recent reviews
These are not the socks I liked in prior years. They use a new material that has very little traction. I took one step onto my tile floor and nearly slipped and fell.

0% cotton, despite app claiming 47%
App / website product details day they're 47% cotton. Arrived and have 0% cotton on the actual label and in the socks. Nota good idea for exercise socks.

too low on actual cotton
they reformulated the fabric of these socks adding too much synthetic. as a consequence they don't wick sweat like they claim and they are slippery on wood floors. they are super uncomfortable and now i'm stuck with two packs of them. off to goodwill.

Run small
Bought for my husband who is around a 10.5 and has skinny feet. He said they run a bit small and are tight in the toe area.
