Hot socks !!!, October 30, 2006
This review is from: Gold Toe Men's Metropolitan Dress Sock, 3-Pack (Apparel)
Gold Toe makes an excellent sock and their "Men's Metropolitan Dress Sock" is no exception. The socks are remarkably comfortable; they are not thick and they are not too thin just as other reviewers noted. They almost never "bunch up" inside my shoes as I walk around and they are very much worth the price. They last longer so the long life of these socks justifies the slightly higher price.
I also like the design of the toe section actually being gold colored fabric. Amazon points out that these socks come in your choice of four different colors: black, charcoal, brown and navy blue. The safest, most conservative choice for the corporate office is the black color; but the other colors come in handy too depending on your work/play "dress code."
These socks can easily be washed in any washer or dryer--but I would heed the manufacturer's warning about not drying them at a high temperature. High temperatures in the clothes dryer cause these socks to wear out faster. They will stretch more and become much looser on your feet.
The socks fit shoe sizes 7 through 12 so it's almost one size fits all. Very good!
Overall, Gold Toe is the brand to buy if you want good quality, long lasting socks. The "Metropolitan Dress Socks" for men match any attire and they can even be worn in bed on those really cold nights to keep your feet warm!
Highly recommended! May you wear them in good health! SMILE

Comfy, but they sag very easily, October 3, 2007
This review is from: Gold Toe Men's Metropolitan Dress Sock, 3-Pack (Apparel)
The Metropolitan socks are thin and fairly comfy, but they sag on the calves very easily. I pulled them up all the way and wore them for about 3 minutes walking down the street. They were already sagging down to my ankles! They are not tight at all.
I'm 5'8" and bought the "one size" sock. I'm in good shape and my calves are neither fat or sculpted.
For $15/3-pair, I might as well have gotten a $5 3-pack of saggy dress socks at Walgreens.

I ordered these for my husband and he is very happy with them. He said they are not too thick and not too thin - they are just the right weight.
