They look just like the photo...fit and feel great!
Size: Large, Color: White/Gray (6 Pairs)
No complaints on these. They fit great, are supportive cotton, and look great. I was so used to the cheap Wal-Mart-bought fruit of the loom (think) ankle socks that I had no idea what I was missing. These are thicker, made better, and feel great. They even support the back of your foot from riding against your shoes. Because they are a bit thicker, they do make my feet hotter than before...but I've adjusted the shoe I wear to allow more breathability and don't wear them for long periods anyway. I live in Texas...we wear flip flops most of the year round. :)
