The socks are a bait and switch, not the same socks they used to be, buyer beware.
I just bought these in January, and I ordered them because they were "supposedly" the same ones that I had ordered two years prior, as I used the "Buy it Again" button. The ones that I bought in 2013 were GREAT, the bottoms where reinforced, and the socks ran larger than normal. I am a size 10.5 and 2013 socks fit great with room for flexure. I wore the 2013 socks for nearly two years, almost primarily, and they just now have starting to wear through, not bad for two years full time use. So I am very disappointed with the new 2015 Hanes Men's 6 Pack Ankle Sock. Hanes or their re-seller has done a bait and switch, so buyer beware. These new 2015 socks are much thinner, do not have a reinforced bottom, and run very small comparatively (see picture). I would say they would be a good fit for a size 8 mens shoe, but they are tight on me. I can also guarantee that the 2015 sock will not last anywhere as long. I am disappointed with the socks that I was expecting to be the same.
