Due to the recent changes in Amazon TOS, I will be leaving reviews for ALL of the product I've received but was not able to leave feedback for. Some of these products seem to have become unavailable since, so it may seem a little pointless to leave these reviews. But I do not want to unfairly fail to hold up my half of the original bargain. I WILL review the products and I hope they may be of use to some readers.

Thank you.



Brand Name: Leotruny

This trio of socks arrives in a "frosted" zip-lock bag with the brand clearly visible on it's front.Each pair is kept in a card stock slip, again with the brand stamped on their front.



My first impression is that they're quite soft and pleasant to touch. I like the deeper colors they have. They're not bright and they're not dark, they're just RICH. I enjoy this middle ground and think that they'll fit into many color schemes and outfits because of it.

As soon as I started bunching a pair up to put on, I could tell, they have a narrow tube circumference. They fit more tightly on my calves than I prefer, this is a standard issue I come across with knee high socks. They fit, but I don't like the way the dig in visually, as well as physically. It's just uncomfortable. When I discovered this, I just pushed them down and let them slouch around the top of my boots. They don't have a very dramatic slouch, as again, they're rather narrow. My calves are somewhat meaty though, measuring 16.5" at the widest, which also happens to be where the socks top hits.



Construction wise, these socks are well made and seem to be solidly knit. I like that the pattern is decorative and yet not overly feminine. If after a few more wears, I find I am not interested in keeping them in my drawer, due to their tight fit, I'll be able to give them to mu husband. Sure, he won't wear them in a fashion statement manner, but he'll still appreciate their cozy and soft nature.

I would most likely rate these a 3 or a 4 star. I feel that quality wise, they're a 4. But I don't like that they did not list a range for calf sizes in their listing, so that would bump it to a 3. If I had spent $15 on them and found them to be as narrow as they are, I would probably have sent them back regardless of them being so lovely and well made.

I received this product complimentary in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.

  1. Bummer on the tight fitting on the calves. My daughter would love these though beings she has small legs. Me not so much.
