Alan, those are, without a doubt, the longest socks I've ever owned. Had to fold them down 2-3 times to get them below the knee. Still, they'll go great with my X-kilts and are heavy enough for Minnesota this time of year. I also popped for their "kilt" hose in gray. Very light weight, perfect for mid-summer. $20 total for both pair, free shipping, and arrived within two days of my order—how can you go wrong?

While they're a few steps down from my more traditional wool kilt hose, they filled a couple voids in my sock drawer. Thanks again.
