Generally speaking. Thinner material, impossible to get on after a shower because of the slimfit design. Iv only got 40-41 shoe size... so I wonder where the hell people with really big feet get socks these days. Oh these first world problems are killing me! Will try to buy socks in Sweden next time im there, but guess its the same trend there
And WTF is up with all these ancle socks? Tried those once and I felt like sitting down to pee

I just want dem good old cheap socks in a 10 pack they sold in the 90s and until recently

Have a 46 and never had a problem buying them in Belgium, Netherlands or Sweden.
Ankle socks are only for when I wear shorts tho, anything else and it feels weird

H&M should have a decent selection of socks, so check them if you got one around. Smile

I'm a 43 and I've never had trouble finding socks that fit here .. though, like you, I *do* miss those cheapy 10 packs of socks as you just can't find them over here Sad I buy from Primark whenever I fly back to the UK though, 10 pairs for a fiver (50kr Very Happy) is a bargain.

46 here too!

also never had problems with the size. only problem with new socks is that everytime i wear them i get some fluffs (hope this is the right word i was looking for) at the bottom of the feet.
so annoying especially if u don't notice it and got it all over the floor or even worse in the bed.

Same problem as freiwald! But I did find the latest socks I bought pretty small, they are supposed to be 39-46 and I'm 45 but it's really tight.
