Can’t wait till one of these fancy sock sets is actually designed for adult men. And why is the range always so damn broad? No one would buy pants that said 28" to 50" on them
Plenty of adult men have shoe sizes below 12. As someone at size 7.5, I can assure you that far more of these sock sets are a range starting at 9 than you’ve noticed
I received a life pro tip several years ago, that more than any other I’ve grown to appreciate. Throw away all your socks, go to Costco and buy several packs of Kirkland black dress socks, and discard/replace as needed.
Life is precious. Do not waste one more second sorting socks. Socks are collected like french fries and placed individually in a lot into a drawer. Do the same for underwear. Do the same for undershirts.
In all my years, no success in my job, relationships, or promotions have had anything to do with the socks, shirts, underwear I wear.
These fancy Meh socks are a tax on your life’s time with no measurable benefit. Simplify.
@Michaelforman I’ve been wearing single color socks for 40 years. No sorting and if you lose a sock, eventually you’ll lose another and all will be back in balance. Life is easier this way.
@Kyser_Soze@Michaelforman I am with you. I buy the black Gold Toe socks in 12-15 whenever I see them on sale. My shoe size is 11 but I find the larger sized socks are much more comfortable. The 6-12 thing is bullshit, especially if you have wide feet.
@Michaelforman said: “In all my years, no success in my job, relationships, or promotions have had anything to do with the socks, shirts, underwear I wear.”
Whoa-I came to complain about the old man socks for sale today and left feeling much better about my undergarment choices. Wise words sir—thanks!
I hope everyone here would agree that if wearing more than black socks 100% of the time brings you joy, then you should do that. No one has ever noticed or taken joy in the lack of a conscious decision. It’s okay to value the absence of a choice, but don’t project that value onto others as a virtue.
Oh god no. Maybe if one of the selections were all BLACK. I wear these socks but only BLACK. All the same so it’s no worries (& it’s actually difficult to tell) if one goes missing. Matching socks for a better life!
Meh… Gold Toe brand socks have a golden toe as seen on goldtoe.com Also the p/n doesn’t cross to their site. These may not be goldtoe socks after all.
And without any sizing, useless purchase.
@outdoorslife good points… some of the meh pics show a Goldtoe band on the sock packs, some of the socks on the website don’t have gold toes, just the gold stitching… so who knows? Are they counterfeit ??
But either way the size issue is definitely a problem, even if they do say “Men’s” !
Are these really “goldtoe” brand? I looked on their site and all the men’s socks had a gold cap over the toe not just a gold stripe. Damned spell check keeps changing “gold” to “good”.
@aliesc It’s in the second bullet point:
“You get 6 pairs by choosing 2 3-packs, and each sock is 70% Cotton, 28% Nylon, and 2% Spandex. How’s that for some numbers?”
I see nothing in the Specs. on the SIZE of these sox’s. I have a 14shoe and I have a very hard time trying to find sox’s that FIT. Cancelled out my order before ordering !!!

@lowlypeon You’re supposed to say “Meh”
Genuinely disappointed- I totally mis-read the description.
what size are they? 12-16?
@romey050500 looks like they were selling direct 5 pair for $9.50 but are sold out. Size shows 6-12.5

its been forever since anything good has come through…
Fits shoe sizes 6 -12? or in other terms Small?

@Telanis they would absolutely buy then if that was the only option and they fit.

Ankle socks one day?
@vdeogmer We all must have dreams.
I don’t need more socks.
/giphy likely-amorous-company
Great buy, but have about 50 pair so I’m going to pass tonight. Those that need socks should load up, nite.
I wear a size 12/13 shoe so I need big pairs of socks. What size is Meh offering tonight?

“they’re.”
@JRRNeiklot I don’t get it? Checked for grammar (I usually catch stuff) but I don’t see anything.
Or maybe you’re stringing out your reply one word at a time a la Meh deal-a-day?
If so, STELLAR IDEA…and I’ll be back later
@JRRNeiklot @llangley second sentence.
@JRRNeiklot also “damned.”
@aleohansen @JRRNeiklot
/giphy aha!
154 sold so far, all of them in Kalifornia, lol!
Hooray!
Great excuse to move out some old pairs of socks. Well done, Meh. Well done.
/giphy soaking-screeching-jelly
@txag96 This banana picture does NOT spark joy.
@Targaryen I absolutely agree. Giphy is out of control, and this bodes poorly for the future of AI.
I’m a sucker for a pair of fancy schmancy socks. The rest of me is too lowbrow.
How can you describe a product without size information? At Amazon it shows 12-16. Are these the same ?
I’ve always thought of GoldToe as the FUBU of socks. If FUBU had been formed by old white men wearing khakis with elastic waist bands, that is.
My dryer do not like taste of these socks!
@givemehdeal This?
Canceled…no size…no sale
Oh god no. Maybe if one of the selections were all BLACK. I wear these socks but only BLACK. All the same so it’s no worries (& it’s actually difficult to tell) if one goes missing. Matching socks for a better life!
@Joedetroit plus as you get a hole in one, you can cull it from the herd without losing an entire pair…
@chienfou cull the herd!
SOCK IT TO ME, BABY!
/giphy ghastly-fumbling-body
Maybe you have to be old enough to get the quote to get the socks?
/giphy sock it to me
@aetris “laugh-in” my ass off…
(BTW the first gif needed a trim!
2nd one was weird…
the extra one is just not what you were looking for either…)
@chienfou - WOW - you replied before I even finished the comment!!!
I should have stuck with the 2nd one - but I kept hoping giphy would get the reference…
Sigh… I’m too old for giphy…
@aetris I’m at work and was writing the comment above yours so saw it when it posted…
then watched it morph several times!!!
Giphy and I see things very differently!
@aetris here you go:
@aetris @chienfou Weird beyond words.

THIS IS ONE OF THOSE TIMES WHEN SIZE MATTERS
WTF peoples?
@llangley “usually” Men’s are 10-13 according to this site:
https://sockdrawer.com/pages/sock-sizes-explained-finally
@chienfou yep, I’ve been to stores. But I need MEH to clarify. Amazon showing sold out except for 12 to 16…So mehbe MEH bought out the “usuals”…
@llangley I agree…see above:
https://meh.com/forum/topics/pick-your-6-pack-goldtoe-socks#5ced15146b84d608f4e564d0
Can these stetch to cover my cloven hooves?
@Bumplepimp should cover your camel toes… with a bit of work…
I’m a sucker for socks

@Mothersnakes actually, they DON’T all have gold toes… some are just the stripe.

Ugh. A whole 24 hours until the next ‘Meh’ button push. C’mon Meh give us something worth buying please…
@Gypsigirl213 These were worth buying - and I’m cheap!

The Sock with the Golden Toe is probably the third worst 007 movie, IMHO.
@shanesny wasn’t that from the short lived stint of Rowan Atkinson as James Bond?
Description says it includes 6 pairs but checkout says its only 3…so?
@aliesc It’s in the second bullet point:
“You get 6 pairs by choosing 2 3-packs, and each sock is 70% Cotton, 28% Nylon, and 2% Spandex. How’s that for some numbers?”
@aliesc There is a minimum order of two 3-packs, which would total 6 pairs for $15.
@aliesc You have to do an order of two three-packs. You’ll see each one adds $7.50 to your total. 2 at $7.50 makes $15.
@aliesc @ChadP how 'bout some SIZE NUMBERS??
I’d probably be in if I knew for sure…
/giphy logical-vintage-soda
I see nothing in the Specs. on the SIZE of these sox’s. I have a 14shoe and I have a very hard time trying to find sox’s that FIT. Cancelled out my order before ordering !!!
