The socks were given away from me. With enthusiasm I was told that the socks are comfortably upholstered and so aufpimpen every normal shoe. And for the cool autumn walks the walk is also cozy, warm and soft. The shoe the foot even with a kick into a puddle was wet but still dry. The high price justifies the good quality indeed. Highly Recommended. Edit Dez.2013: Now when the winter temperatures will I still happily reports keep as warm socks and go to the Christmas wish list. Who would have thought that someone still wants nowadays socks for Christmas? * Laughs *
