Finding socks to fit my bigger foot (only a 10 1/2) is challenging enough. It is even more challenging to find socks that fit and REMAIN fitting. i was hoping better of these. I have worn one pair, turned them inside out and washed them in a regular load of laundry. They say wash cold water. I am not willing to wash all my clothes in cold water for the sake of socks that might shrink and I am not willing to wash my socks in a separate load. These were washed in warm water and hung out to dry. They shrank an entire inch (for crew socks), one half of that was in the length and one half in the foot. Now, the heel of the sock no longer reaches to my heel. They also shrank in width by almost an inch. I will not return any of the 12 pair. I must have socks to wear. But, I will NOT be ordering any more of these. I am very disappointed.
