Q: Does over the calf mean it is closer to a knee sock? My adult son doesnt want crew socks he wants knee socks for Christmas
submitted by Lois - 2 months ago
A: Hello! Thank you for your question.
Yes, “over-the-calf” usually means the sock comes pretty close to a knee sock — more coverage than a crew sock.

Over The Calf, They Will Go!
This is the 2nd pack that I have purchased with target. The socks feel comforting and I know that I've purchased a great deal of a material for the few bucks that it cost. As I say, A WELL FIT SOCK DESERVES A WELL FIT CALF AND FOR THAT WE ARE MADE FOR EACH OTHER - LIKE/LOVE THE FIT!

Disappointed
I used to wear these socks years ago and were my go-to. I then discovered Hanes made a premium version that was thicker, softer, and better quality. Used those for years and they finally wore out. Found out they stopped making the premium version so went back to these old trusty ones. Quality is much worse than it used to be. Socks have a more synthetic material feel (says 55% polyester, 43% cotton) and are not soft like cotton. Plus there is no extra cushioning on the bottom like they say. And the worst of all is they are short. They came up to mid-calf on me. I am 6'1 but have never had that issue with Hanes socks in the past. Very disapointed in these socks and they will be returned.

Good value for the price.
These tube socks are a perfect fit for my leg length and calf size. They come right up to my knee like advertised. They really help keep my lower legs warm. The material is medium thick, which is perfect for me because my feet sweat even in the winter. If you're looking for a decent sock at a good price then these are for you. One thing to remember is check the shoes size to be sure their long enough for you.

Too short
Over the calf means OVER the calf, not half way up it. Now I have 8 pairs of socks that I get to throw away. Thanks for wasting my time and money.

Great for work boots!
These socks work great with my work boots. They stay up all day so I don't get a rub rash from the boots.

Hanes Men's Tube Socks Are Great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hanes Red Label Over-the-Calf Tube Socks answered a need I have for better support of my legs, especially when exercising. They provide the support I need to avoid cramping during exercise or lengthy walking.

Dumb
My husband bought these because they were the only not ankle socks available. In store. Oddly enough, they didn’t have his size in boxers either. The socks have no heal reinforcement to keep them in place and he hates them. What is going on that target doesn’t stick basic essential items like socks and underwear?

Not our favorite style, but good value
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got these socks for my husband to try, thinking they would be good for his size 14 feet and wide calves since they're a taller sock. What I didn't know is that tube socks are lacking the defined/cushioned heel, so be aware of that prior to purchase - my husband said he doesn't like this style of sock due to this difference compared to his normal athletic crew style. He did say the toe portion was comfortable and felt nicely cushioned. He mentioned the upper portion felt a bit thin for his preference, and that he would rather have a thicker/more defined material throughout, not only at the toe. They do go up quite high on the calf as described, so if that's what you're after, these will work well. Unfortunately these socks were mostly helpful for my husband to confirm what he doesn't like in a sock, but most of the issues were more preference than actual product flaws. The material of the main sock body does feel a bit flimsy/cheap, but the toes are nice and the top part has good stretch. Overall not something we would buy, but might be a good option for others who knows they like this style of sock. We received these socks as a sample to try in exchange for a review, but the opinions are based on our actual experience with the product.

Great socks
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the men’s red label socks. They are very long, the fit is nice. They are very comfortable and warm. They seem to be made very well. I wore them on an average day, all day long. They held up very well.

Soft and comfy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried out the Red Label over calf socks and I found them super comfy. They are soft and have a reinforced toe. So far, they have held up well in the wash and are staying nice and soft. They are holding their shape well too.

Soft and comfortable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The socks are soft and comfortable. Socks are true to size although they look a little long on my husband who is only 5'3" tall so hard to find exact fit. He likes that type of fit because he always wears boots. We will definitely be buying more when these wear out.
