OK for basketball however not enough cushioning on the bottom
Due to a relative lack of cushioning on the bottom the sock is only OK for hoops. The large size is better than the head extra cushioning sock I normally use. Head sock has significantly more cushioning but is too small for my size 13 feet.

cheap and good
A guy needs socks on a regular basis, and when I need a few, I tend to be at the point of all my socks being worn nearly through. A few of these (two dozen pairs) and I'm set for a few more years. Plus, as you'd expect from a company willing to put a brand-marking like gold-threaded toes, they stand out, and their quality is worth of a good impression. Discussing socks too much is like discussing what colour to paint a bike shed, but good socks, good mood.

Great fit; good price; soft cotton
Gold Toe - always great when you can find the larger sizes in all cotton (or wool). They wear well & feel good on.
True crew lenghth, not over the calf.

The search continues.........
Gold Toe used to make a heavily cushioned sock with a good knit-in arch support; for whatever reason they discontinued it. I've since tried three of their other socks because of the Gold Toe name. They may be a quality sock but if you're looking for cushioning you won't find it here.

Excellent socks
I once bought a pair of Gold Toe socks exactly like the one in Amazon before and I know that these socks are superb in terms of quality and endurance. I didn't hesitate to buy this 6-pact once I found it here in Amazon. It came with a good price too. This is a type of sock that is good for both sports and office dress-up.
