5.0 out of 5 stars Superior everyday cotton crew sock, June 4, 2007

By 

hyperbolium (Earth, USA) - See all my reviews

There was a time when inexpensive cotton socks purchased at the flea market or an athletic superstore were a reasonable choice for everyday wear. They were reasonably well made, and gave good wear for the dirt-cheap price.

But over the past few years the manufacture of these socks have been uniformly off-shored to China, and what were once mostly cotton fabrics have increasingly become cotton-polyester blends. Some may find the moisture wicking properties of polyester to be beneficial, but the cheap grade of polyester used in most packaged socks leaves the final product with an unpleasant surface. Worse, the tailoring of these inexpensive socks -- particularly the toe seams -- has become increasingly unrefined.

If you're not particularly sensitive to the feel of cheap poly-cotton blends, or if you're unbothered by chunky, overhanging seams mashed against your toes, then Adidas/Nike/New Balance branded socks (all seemingly made in the same factories in China) are for you. If you're looking for something more refined, then look into Wigwam's broad line of cotton and cotton-blend socks. Wigwam's been making socks in the USA since 1905, and the Super 60 is their flagship everyday sock.

The Super 60 is 85% cotton, 15% nylon. The sock is manufactured with a welt top, a perfectly cut toe and a very pleasing fabric finish. Unlike cheap athletic socks from China, the Super 60's toe seam does not bulge beyond the toes, nor pucker after going through the wash. The nylon allows the Super 60 to stretch, so that each size snugly fits a range of foot sizes. The mock ribbing keeps socks up without being too tight, and the cushioned sole is extra comfortable. This is a great everyday sock.

Those who want higher cotton content should look for Wigwam's King Cotton, 650 and Master models. I've found that these 95-100% cotton socks have a great fabric feel, but the lack of stretchable nylon leaves them fitting more loosely. These high cotton content socks come in more sizes (each covering a smaller number of foot sizes), so depending on your foot size you may find one than fits more closely than the Super 60s.

If cotton isn't your favorite fabric, check out Wigwam's line of wool, synthetic and blended fabric socks. Their catalog is bound to have something that fits your needs, and all of their socks are quality manufactured in the USA! [©2007 hyperbolium dot com]

5.0 out of 5 stars Wigwam, February 6, 2007

There's nothing like a Wigwam sock. The best feature is the cushioned bottom. And for a crew sock, the area around the leg is not too tight. I haven't worn these socks in about four years, and once I put them on again, I vowed to never buy another brand. Wigwams rock!

This review is from: Wigwam Super 60 Crew 7-Pack Socks (Apparel)

June 5, 2010
Written nearly a year ago, my original review of these socks was very positive. I've just purchased another pack of these, and they came in the mail today. While they are still tightly woven, well-fitting socks, they are without a doubt thinner than the ones I purchased last year. This includes a thinner padding on the bottom, so I don't expect that these will last as long as the previous socks. A shame, but it seems that everyone is cutting corners these days.
I'll see how long these last before I decide to purchase them again.
They still seem like decent socks, just a slightly cheaper version.
