BlackSocks Review & Giveaway


The folks at BlackSocks make quality socks with an attention to detail.  I had the opportunity to try a pair of their socks and I was very impressed.


I tried these blacksocks in calf size and the material is very fine.  You can tell the quality from the moment you take them out of the package.  They are very soft and are made with peruvian cotton and a blend of lycra and polyamide for a tougher reinforcement in the heel and toe.

I know sometimes I can't stand it when there is stitching on the toe that rubs me wrong when I have my shoes on.  That didn't happen with these.  I also wondered how they would do with a wash and dry.  I'm happy to say that the socks came out looking like new, with no color bleeds, runs or stretching.   They are also hypoallergenic so those with sensitive skin can still experience these socks.

I do believe this is the first pair of socks I've had that was made in Milan, Italy and it won't be the last.  Although the socks retail approximately at $12.00 a pair, they are quality and the price does include shipping and tax.  They also offer a sockscription, so those of you with busy schedules can just subscribe and your socks are automatically delivered.  With high quality and durable socks, Blacksocks is a name to remember. Highly recommend!

The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.

Thank you for taking time out of your day to leave a comment. It's appreciated.
