I had first bought a three-pack for trial and tried the stockings. Contrary to previous bad buys other socks in a department store not fluff these stockings and get even (still) no holes. Have now bought a total of more than 20 pairs and am satisfied even after repeated washing. The pricing on the label, as already described by other reviewers, a bit annoying. I have shoe size 44 and had (otherwise whatsoever as) bought size 39-42. The fit well and do not drone around.
