What customers say:

The Cresta Wool Socks are generally well-received as high-quality, comfortable, and warm socks. Customers praise the soft, durable, and insulating wool material, which provides excellent moisture-wicking properties and keeps feet warm without excessive sweating. However, some customers have experienced issues with the fit, finding the socks too tight or restrictive, especially around the ankles and legs. A few reviewers also commented on the socks feeling scratchy or thin. Overall, the majority of customers seem very satisfied with the product.

Just the right weight. This is a repeat purchase, I already have several pairs, which hold up well through many wearings and washings and dryings.

I'm a fan of these socks, specially the lightweight hikers which are comfortable all year round. Do order the right size, however. I ordered a small by mistake. I hope my wife can

Nice socks
Fit - Width: Slightly wide
Great but run large- I bought a medium. I wear a women's shoe size 7.5 and they are big for me. Put in dryer and good for boots but probably should have sized down.
