3.0 out of 5 stars
Time to switch brands..., October 2, 2009
This review is from: Hanes Classic Men's 6-pack Cushion Crew Socks (Apparel)
So...I have been purchasing these socks for over 3 years and generally find them to be a good product. They are comfortable, do not fall apart and tend to not fade quickly. All very desirable qualities in a black sock.
HOWEVER...the one criticism I have and nagging problem (which surprisingly is not mentioned in other reviews) is that these socks kick off a tremendous amount of lint. Every day when I take my socks off my feet are covered with lint from these socks which inevitably gets everywhere. Repeated washing of the socks does not resolve this problem either. If you are not diligent about vacuuming or washing your feet immediately after taking off your socks the lint gets all over the floor and gets pounded into the carpet (which is a nightmare to get out). After all this time I simply do not have the patience to keep up with the lint all over my carpet and on my feet.
So despite the low price point, good quality and high level of comfort I have to move on from these socks to a product that does not create such a problem.

Terrible socks, March 1, 2010
This review is from: Hanes Classic Men's 6-pack Cushion Crew Socks (Apparel)
I was used to Hanes black crew socks being a bit flimsy in the past but my most recent purchase have holes in them after just three washings. They produce so much fuzz that even though I wash them inside out at the end of the day my feet look like they belong on a hobbit or gorilla. Like their white socks the quality has dropped markedly over the last ten years but while the white socks are still worth purchasing these black socks are awful.

all right by me !!!, December 5, 2007
This review is from: Hanes Classic Men's 6-pack Cushion Crew Socks (Apparel)
These Classic Men's Cushion Crew Socks by Hanes are very well made and they keep your feet warm. I recently started to wear these when it's cold at night and I want to sleep with socks on my feet. These crew socks can be worn for athletic activities but they're probably more suited for everyday routine wear.
These crew length socks have a reinforced heel and toe; this makes them last longer and they still feel very comfortable on my feet. The socks only come in black or grey; and that is a disappointment. However, these are relatively affordable yet good quality socks if you need black socks for work or any other occasion.
I would not dry these socks at high temperatures. High temperature drying would probably result in the socks becoming too loose on your feet. Eventually the fabric could loosen so much that the socks will "bunch up" almost as low as your ankles when you wear them--and that's very uncomfortable. Dry these socks at a lower temperature. Then they will remain just as comfortable as ever. I know mine do!
Overall, you can't go wrong buying these socks. They keep your feet extra warm during colder weather. They are manufactured so well that you definitely get more than your money's worth. Not bad at all!
