I finally found a pair of socks that I can bestow "Roo socks" onto.
They are thick, the grey is the right color, and size, and it has a nice bold red stripe across the toes....
The text down the side is fine, don't see it much...
But these are good quality (Made in USA) and are not crap... they are the socks I have been looking for

This counts as a personal pic
