They work, they last. April 9, 2010

Once in while for some reason I'll try another over-the-calf sock brand. I always come back to Gold Toe. Be nice if there were more of a selection of colors.
 Quality has slipped April 1, 2010

The quality of Gold Toe has slipped. These are slightly shorter than in the past, they don't stay up as well and after a dozen washes, begin to slip. Color is very very dark. Hard to tell it from black. After 30+ years of wearing Gold Toe, I may try some other brands.
 Entirely nylon sweaty, smelly mess December 29, 2009

I've ordered and appreciate several other versions of Gold Toe brand over-the-calf socks, including the (sadly discontinued) Auro series, black athletic socks, and the AquaFX socks (very nice). These Metropolitan socks, however, are awful in every situation I've tried. In cool & dry dress shoes they are slippery, and too thin to provide any cushion or abrasion resistance. In heavier shoes or when walking any distance, they become a sweaty mess because nylon is non-absorbent and provides no wicking or in-shoe airflow. I've never before had problems with my feet smelling bad, but after a week of these nylon disasters, my shoes started to smell because moisture-wise these socks are as good as going barefoot. Eeew. I threw them away, disinfected my shoes, and went back to a cotton blend.
Avoid these socks October 30, 2009

Avoid these socks unless you like smelly, sweaty feet. They're 100 nylon and therefore they don't allow your feet to breath. Why did I buy them in the first place? Because I saw they were high rated and I neglected to read the details. Don't make the same mistake.
The seller was excellent, they got them to me fast, and got me my refund fast as well.

I wear size 8 shoes and these socks are just too big. I never wear them.
