I'm looking for socks that don't get holes just by looking at them (beehaw.org)

The best simple black business socks that don’t show the first gaps and then holes after a few weeks are…? Help me out here, please. I’m still desperate. Everything I buy is rubbish.

As a wearer of toe socks, I have given up. #DarnTough & their competitor (forgot the name) only make tube socks.

Has anyone considered getting a sewing machine to repair socks? I have a stash of holey socks now and wonder if some of them can be sacrificed for patches on others. I wonder if that can be done in a way that doesn’t result in a seam that can be felt. #askFedi #sewing
