How we update prices, packs and sizes

The last catalog update

The catalog was last updated on September 14, 2026. That update set the price of every pack and every shoe size range on the site, brought back packs that are available again and removed the ones that are not.

That is also why a pack you saw last month can be missing today, or why one size of a pack is listed while the other is not.

How often we update

We update on a schedule. Between two updates, the prices you see come from the last one, and prices at our retail partner can move in the meantime.

When the price or the size list at checkout differs from this site, the checkout is the one that counts, because it is what you pay.

Where the product facts come from

Fiber content, care instructions, the silicone at the heel, pairs per pack, colors and shoe size ranges come from our own product data. Where two descriptions of the same sock disagree, we print the more careful one or leave the line out.

The rating and the number of ratings on a style are the ones shown for that style at our retail partner. A style that is sold as several separate products adds their ratings together.

Names like "Black and charcoal" or "2 rust, 2 white, 1 gray, 1 black" are read from the pack photo itself, because some packs carry only a number in their data.

Size and care notes

Our sock size guide lists the US shoe size ranges of every model as they are cut. The sock care guide follows the Federal Trade Commission rules for care instructions and fiber content. Each source is listed at the bottom of this page.
