It was lighter than others I'd tried, but not quite as light as I'd hoped.
6-inch shoe size
They were a perfect fit for me as a size 14! I don't think they'd work for me if my feet were any bigger.
Men's size 9 is what I wear. I was number five, and I was given the large socks. With a size 14, I'm guessing you'd think they're a tad small.
Selected User Reviews For adidas Men's Superlite Stripe Low Cut Socks (3-Pair)
This is a re-design of the original climacool superlite low-cut socks because I couldn't find them among my previously ordered items. The original socks received a 5/5 rating; however, these socks appear to be made of latex rather than cotton, which causes me to sweat more, are less elastic, and fit slightly smaller, barely covering my ankles where the previous model did not. Oh my goodness, Adidas, what have you done? The previous model had a more organic, cotton-like feel to it. Is it just me, or does adidas' product quality seem to be slipping? I find myself switching from adidas to other brands in a variety of situations.
Don't get me wrong: I adore Adidas socks, but I've noticed that they've gotten hotter on my feet in recent years. The socks are long-lasting and comfortable, and I enjoy wearing them, but they make my feet sweat like no other. If I wear them to work, the insides of my shoes are wet by the time I take them off at the end of the day, and my socks are soaked. It merely serves as a breeding ground for odor, which is unsatisfactory. My feet didn't sweat as much as they do with these new socks, so I wish they'd go back to the Superlite (Climacool) socks from about four years ago.
Even when walking slowly, the socks loosen up. jogging. (Note: I wear tennis shoes in a size 12 for men). In the middle of the foot, there is little to no compression. Because of the side stripes, there is a lot of loose / excess thread inside the sock. The sock is fairly thin, which is fine for my purposes, but I wouldn't rely on them to keep my feet warm. I only use these on a regular basis.
I am a size 14 and ordered the XL size. These are comfortable to wear, and the heel is aligned properly. The upper is mesh, as shown in the photo, with a thicker, padded texture on the heel and forefoot. They're not going to be able to take Thor's place. They're not particularly stylish, but they're comfortable and don't have any rubbing or chafing seams. One of the images is a little deceptive. I bought two sets, one in white and the other in black. Only one pair in each set has the Adidas logo on the ankle. The others have a patterned bottom with three stripes (grey on white socks and black socks) and an ankle logo. For each of them, the fit is identical.
My husband wanted thin low-cut socks to wear with his golf shoes. These were purchased. They are to his liking. However, a week after we received these, we discovered the same socks at Marshall's. The Marshall's pack had 6 pairs of socks rather than the 3 pairs in this package, and it was $2 cheaper than the Amazon 3 pack.
br>I've always had issues with my feet sweating and then my shoes turning into the raunchiest, stinkiest, grossest things you've ever seen. I'm not a big, sweaty, hulking man! I'm 5'11" and weigh 175 pounds, and when I work out, I barely break a sweat. But for some reason, no matter what kind of shoes I buy, I always buy the same department store socks (Walmart Target 6-pack). My feet sweat profusely after 12 packs! br>And that's the end of it. On the top side of these socks, there is a see-through mesh, which is more visible in the Graphite/Grey image. It allows for more airflow throughout my entire foot. br>I haven't done many reviews on the products I've bought on this website, but since there aren't any for this product, I figured I'd share what we got here for some awesome socks with fellow Amazonians. haha This has been an annoyance for so long, and it's such a small but significant life changer for me, that I'm just excited enough to write a quick review about it. br>6 out of a possible 10! a fantastic product!br>br>Update: (9/14/2013)br>I still think these socks are fantastic. I've had about 12 pairs for more than two years and they're still going strong. Despite the fact that the three packs have different printing, they are still fine if you buy a couple of the same packs together. br>The white pairs are showing some stains after two years, but I have worn them weekly for a long time. br>Despite the fact that the three packs have different printing, they are still fine if you buy a couple of the same packs together. br>I have a tear in the ankle area of one sock and a tear in the heal of another. I'm fairly certain I'm to blame for both of them. When I'm walking, I'll trip over some ominous air ahead of me. I'm clumsy like that. br>As I've become more aware of my natural tendency to sweaty feet and hands, I've paired these socks with the New Balance Baddeley M890v2 running shoes. (I'm not a runner, by the way. ) ) They're a mesh-outside shoe that's very comfortable and allows for a lot of airflow. They can be found on Amazon. br>br>In conclusion, I came back to buy more of them, but I'd like to point out that my review was written when they were $12 for a three-pack on Amazon. (Much more reasonable) Personally, because I enjoy them so much. (It's nice to get new socks every few years) I'll buy more at this price, but only one 3-pack. I'll pack one now and another later if I think I'll need it. Thank you for taking the time to read! I hope this has been of assistance.
br>br>I've had several pairs of these as daily socks for over 5 years, and they've held up well, with only a few pairs needing to be replaced. br>I will purchase more of these as replacements and, if necessary, will replace other socks with these. br>br>Every other pair of socks I own is either too hot or too cold, causing moisture to accumulate. stepping into my shoes - In all but the hottest and coldest weather, these socks allow my feet to maintain a near-perfect temperature balance.

For years, I've been buying these socks exclusively, and I've got a few thoughts on them. br>In terms of durability, these socks will last a long time if you wear them inside your shoes; however, due to the thin fabric, they can tear easily if you run a lot in them, walk in grass, or put them through any other type of extra wear. br>However, for me, comfort is paramount. By a long shot, these are the most comfortable low socks I've ever worn. They last when not overused, and they feel so nice to cover and conceal my toes, whether I'm walking around the house or going to work every day, I don't think they can be beat, especially for the price. br>I love these socks and will continue to wear them for as long as ADIDAS sells them:.
