After 30 Years, Quality Has Suffered Sep 05, 2009
By Ethan A. Winning
"ewin64"
I have been wearing Thorlo Thick Cushioned and Reinforced Running and Sports socks since the late 60's. I first wore them for tennis, then racquetball for a total of 37 years. I'd buy six pair, then a dozen pair at a time, and mark them so that they got even wear. (Originally, you could get Thorlos with colored bands at the top - blue, red, grey, and plain.) In the last 5 years that I played - and played 6 days a week - any one pair of socks would last a month to 6 weeks maximum. It would not have been so bad, but they did not wear through where the reinforced heel was, but through the toe and at the ball of the foot. Whether the problem with the ball of the foot was left or right, I don't know. Both socks wore through in both places.
I wrote to Thorlo when I had "stored up" 30 pair of socks and, since I ordered direct for the last 10 years, they sent me three free pair. Unfortunately, they had no reinforcement, and they ran within two weeks of wearing them. Just catch them on a toe nail or part of the shoe, and they ran. Comfortable, but they didn't last even when I just walked in them.
My solution - when I was still playing racquetball - was to wear two pair at the same time. Even then, some just had to be discarded when there were holes three inches around on the soles.
Last year, I switched to Nikes at half the cost. I have had no trouble whatsoever with the Nikes and though they're not as soft as Thorlo, at least I'm getting my money's worth. (A little softener in the water does nicely.) I just got six pair for $16.65. So, while I'm sorry to report that Thorlos are no longer what they used to be, I'm fairly confident that after 35+ years, I'm giving them a fair and accurate review.

If you spend time on your feet, these are great socks May 06, 2007
By Information Access Hawaii
"mauishopper"
These are great socks if you spend a lot of time on your feet, or do a lot of walking. I have a narrow heel, and these padded socks make sure I never get blisters. My feet also perspire, and these socks wick the moisture. Finally talked my husband into trying them, and he was surprised at how much better his feet felt at the end of a long day. When you wash them, don't keep them together by folding one sock over both socks or the "cuff" will break down and loose its shape. Thorlo also tells you that!

second only to smart wool Dec 22, 2008
By E. Collins If you have never run a marathon, hiked 25 miles,walked the length and breadth of new york metropolitan museum then you would not appreciate the sheer comfort of this sock over any other. A long time favorite eclipsed in my opinion, only by smart wool products.

Excellent For Trail Running Dec 09, 2007
By J H Murphy
"Hank Murphy"
I've bought two pair so far. I use them for trail running and some running on pavement, but not for everyday wear. I once accidentally took two different socks with me when walking a trail...this was a real eye-opener, and I advise anyone who does a lot of running or walking to try this sometime. The Thorlo was clearly more comfortable on downhill segments, which are more stressful in trail running. Also, they are offered in an extra large size for us big guys, and this also makes them more comfortable for me.
I have washed these a few times and not seen the pilling mentioned elsewhere yet. Our daughters have worn a similar Thorlo in the past, and they do pill eventually. But I'm not a fashion plate when running and this is not a big issue for me.
Five stars.

Love these socks, have for years Feb 18, 2011
By Life-long learner
"Avid reader"
I have worn these socks for years and absolutely love them. I live in them, literally, most of the year. I live in Minnesota, where it is cold for several months each year. The double-thick soles on these socks allow me to move around the house in my stocking feet all winter without my feeting feeling cold. They also keep my feet warm when I put on my boots and go outside. Any time that fashion does not dictate more formal socks, these are the ones I am wearing.
They also wash up very well and last a long time.
I am a woman and most men's or unisex socks are too wide--I end up with little "ears" sticking out at the corner of the toes. But not with these socks. They "stretch in" to fit me just great from toe to heel to ankle.
