Buy the black ones, not the gray. Trust me.
The Wrangler Boot Socks are overall a decent buy, but not perfect. My husband wears Red Wing slip-on work boots. Basically, it's a working version of a cowboy boot. They come all the way up the calf like a cowboy boot, and regular socks simply weren't cutting it - he was rubbing the heck out of the back of his leg and leaving a rash.
Enter the socks. The first set we bought were black XL sized - the black matters here, so stay with me. He's got a size 12EEE foot, so we needed the big socks. They showed up the next day (yay, Prime!) and were immediately put to use. The socks fit true to size - a firm sock with just enough compression to keep your feet from being tired - and came all the way to the knee. The bottoms were nicely padded and easily worked for all-day wear.
He liked them enough to order up a second set, but this time in gray. Like I said - this matters.... Completely different. They're half the thickness as the black and slightly tighter in fit. Almost no padding on the bottom. As if they're a totally different item, not simply a different color. So the rating I've got is for the black ones. The gray, I'd say 2.5 to 3 stars. The black, great socks!
