Carhartt Men's Force Midweight Crew Sock 3 Pack

BLUF: I love these socks, so comfortable, feels so good on my feet, like a difference between a higher thread count on bed sheets, might not sound like a lot, but once you put them on, SO GOOD. So, in 2000, I got a pair of these socks and like anyone, oh well, Socks, I needed some so I guess I don't have to buy them. But man, from the first time I put them on they were amazing! Every time laundry time was done, I would use the 3 pairs I got from that Christmas first, for work, for walking, working out, or just hanging around the house. For the next few Christmases when my parents or wife would ask what I'd like, I would say those socks you got me, but they forgot which brand and type, so I never got them. Fast forward to a month ago, and I realized 2 of the pairs were starting to get a hole, I did a ton with them, so it wasn't a surprise, what was is that they lasted so long. Many of my other socks came and went multiple times. So, then the last couple weeks I was trying to figure out what brand these were, the only word I could see clearly was the word Force, but the rest was a bit worn. It wasn't until last week I put one on and the letters were much clearer and said Carhart, Really?!? So, I searched here, and found the exact ones I had. I ordered 6 packages, 2 of each color, work, play, and chilling. They came in yesterday and today I put one on, and that feeling like the first time came back. I know, it might sound like I'm exaggerating a bit, but man, for real, I've never written a review or cared about socks before, and I was in the military needing socks that would withstand what we did, but were SO thick, these are so much better and not as thick. Very happy, and thanks for reading if you read this all.

I usually don't feel the need to write a review but these socks... yes socks, are actually different than any other sock I've ever worn. I've bought the Dickies work sock and while they were decent socks, they still just felt like a reinforced sock. Socks always claim to have this or that feature but I've always just felt like I have to take their word for it since they don't feel any different.These on the other hand feel noticeably different the second you put them on. The part I was most skeptical about was the compression arch and how padded the toe and heel actually were but that was apparent when you put them on. I can only describe the feeling as wearing a shoe that is very snug on your foot but doesn't cramp your toes. The other claim that work socks make is the breathability factor which is usually just the same sock material being thinner. These on the other hand seem to have a completely different material on the top and sides, similar to a nylon or running sock. You can actually feel a breeze on the top of your foot when you walk around in them without shoes. I can definitely see why some find them to be too tight on the calf because they are and will not move once pulled up and because of the reinforcements and support added, they are harder to get on and off than a normal sock. I have thin calves so it's not a dealbreaker for me but it might be for some even though I like that they're not normal socks.

I don’t write many reviews. This is the 3rd batch of these socks I have bought in 7 years. I am one of those guys who wears the same stuff every day. I have a simple closet and simple life. But that also means I am serious as a heart attack about the QUALITY of the products I buy for daily use. These socks set the standard for me. So glad Carhartt still makes them. They wear like iron. I wear Ariat steel toe cowboy boots and these come all the way up my calf. I am 5’9” and 205#. I am farmer strong and have good sized calves. These are just the right “tightness” for me. If you have a Fat Leg then maybe keep looking. But I love love the level of compression these create. Exactly the right amount for 14 hour a day wear. Over time the heels wear out a little but that’s hard as hell to get to that point with these. They also never stink. I don’t have sweaty feet though but I do turn them inside out at night and wear them two days in a row. Sorry if you think that’s gross. But they do NOT smell day 2. If I was going on a thru hike backpacking hike I’d bring two pairs of these. That would be all you need for a couple thousand miles. When I first started wearing these several years ago my ankles would swell if I sat too long at a desk or on an airplane. I swear to God these socks fixed that. I’m a Fan Boy of these and kind find nothing to complain about and I’m sticking with them all the way. Just bought my latest batch Jan 2023 and they are like the old batches. They don’t change much thankfully!

Fit- I wear size 11 1/2 work boots and 6-12 size fits perfectly. Although, if I had extra large calves I think they would be too tight. I have, what I would call normal size calves in relation to my legs, and the socks are rather tight around them leaving an indentation when I take them off. I can understand some of the reviews that state they didn't git over someones calves. Feel- They have a nice thickness to them that provides a cushioning that feels good inside inside of my boots. Warmth- They keep my feet warm, although it hasn't been really cold here in NJ so far this winter thanks to climate change, I have feeling they may be too warm for summer wear but I haven't experienced that yet. Price- Considering the outrageous cost of all products lately, these socks are defiantly worth the money. Carhartt- Their products continue to exceed my expectations after many years of wearing them and these are no exception. In my opinion, Carhartt continues to produce quality goods.

Best socks ever!

After buying one set of 3 I came back and got another set about a month or two later. was looking for some summer socks originally. Here's my take. These are on the thin side however that's not IMO a bad thing for summer. Why I came back is I'm somewhat amazed that they have held up as they have. Even with my ratty, rough toenails, not a wear/hole. They slip on as well as the first time, and have not stretched out. Give great support all the way to the top. These won't fill in loose fitting shoes gaps. For the price, which I was skeptical about at first, outstanding. My only worry is that by the time I may need to replace some is that Amazon won't have them. Highly recommend. Your welcome.

I read the reviews on these socks from other users that said they were tight at the top so I ordered x-large instead of large. No good! While the bottom of the sock fit well I had to take them off after 5 minutes as the top of the sock's were so tight it cut off circulation and my feet went numb. I am 6-1 and weigh 170LBS and my legs are normal size and these socks left marks on my legs that didn't go away for about 2 days. I have been a customer of Carhartt for many years and still think they make the best and most comfortable work clothes hands down. These socks however were a complete miss on Carhartt's part but hey after all the Carhartt stuff I have purchased, this is the first time i have ever returned one of their products so I guess i cant hold it against them to much...

Some of the best socks available, a bit on the more spendy side but so far have been worth it

no review way too small should say size 9 not 11 to15

Très déçu. Elles n'ont pas tenu 3 mois et sont désormais toutes trouées. J'aime pourtant habituellement beaucoup Carhartt mais sur ces chaussettes c'est le zéro pointé.

Ottima qualità

Great product and nice professional delivery guy

Husband says these are the dogs! Happy husband = happy wife.
