Has anyone had these socks for more than 6 months? I am looking for socks that last.

They can be a little itchy due to the wool content but for warmth they are great. Here in Vermont we need the warmth.

I have had these socks for more than 6 months and they hold up well. I am saving receipts just in case. Smart Wool socks seemed to be the greatest and Zulily had Smart Wool socks for a great deal and I went crazy buying them. Unfortunately, my big toe goes straight through them in a matter of weeks. I even exchanged them all for large (because they fit a little small) but it didn't help. I'm a little sock obsessed I know. REI socks hold up extremely well but they are not attractive.

I bought these socks for my 13 year-old son. I don't think they are the largest size. Generally, I am not pleased with Under-Armour quality of any of their socks for me (ladies) or kids. He just wants the name.

I haven't, and the reason why is because the cost of shipping the old pair back, plus the cost of shipping the replacement to me, is too close to the price of just buying a new pair to be worth it. I use them at the gym and just accept that they are a product that will wear out and need to be replaced.

I really like these socks, but they tend to shrink on me after a few washings. Not terrible, still comfortable but I noticed the shrinkage. I also wear 13 wide and bought the large. In the future I think that I will go up a size to xl. I think that this would be a good fit for you.

i wear the merino wool, ones year around and i love them . i personally don't like the lighter ones, but my daughter loves them , i do not think the lighter ones has enough padding . i would try both and decide from there. the socks last forever.

You know I really have not kept track. I'm on my 4th pair, and it's been 15 years, anyway. My first pair was a half length one, and it's still in a pair of hiking shoes I don't wear that often. The second pair pretty much disintegrated before I got another pair, and the third pair is in my work shoes. I do wear things out pretty completely, but I feel confident saying that for me, a pair will last in good shape for the better part of 3 years. Wish I could find a pair of shoes that last that long.

Keep 'em clean and they should last much longer. I'm at the 6 month point right now and they are still working really well.

I have 4 pair of Darn Tough Socks and I wear them every day of the week which means they get washed and dried in a dryer more than once per week. They come out looking and feeling great. I am getting ready to buy several more pairs so I don't have to wash them so often.

They seem to be washable if you must do it but this will probably reduce their durability. They didn't last very long for me, since I kept them on my feet for days on end. They lasted maybe a few weeks or so. If you use them for like an hour a day they should last much longer.

Sockwell socks do well if you follow the instructions. I do warm/cold wash and line dry. I've never put them in the dryer.

Hello, I haven't worn them all night, but I have noticed how much warmer my knees feel when I go outside, and I live in Fairbanks, AK. They made a big difference a couple of weeks ago when it was 28 below, and I wouldn't go outside without them now. I do wear them at work for 9-1/2 hours, and find them comfortable, warm and I haven't had a problem with them for that length of time. I bought them mostly for support, but do find they give added warmth outside in the cold. This is the best answer I can give you.

For best results, part way through the dry cycle, take out the socks and turn them inside out. I have also put them through a normal dry cycle with no problems as well.

These socks seem indestructible. I wash and dry them all the time with no problems

It does not last forever but these lasted 6 -7 months. That's including with dust and dirt!

I have wide feet too, and have problems similar to the ones you described. These particular socks I wear an XL and they fit really nice. (Caution there are other socks that are much different and an XL is way to big)!

I live in Vegas and it's hot and dry. I don't know how they'd be in humid weather, but mine lasted about 6 months and definitely got crunchy after each game. Switched to a 50 dollar Nike pair and never going back.

For me the socks were not over the calf. I found them to run small in size and I gave them away. I went to the local BIG store and bought some diabetic socks.
