3-Pack Low Training Socks

I used to love these socks. They were the only socks I wore. They were soft and fit well inside any of my tennis shoes. The back were cushiony so that my feet never rubbed against the back of my shoes. They also were not slippery on my laminate floor at home. I bought them recently and will never buy them again. Even the round logo now is cheap and looks fake, like a plastic round sticker. The material used to be soft and cottony. The socks now shrink and feel tight and Nylony against my feet and make them hot and sweaty. After washing, they pill and they feel even more tough. I hate these socks but too late to return. If you look at the photos, the original Zella sock (with the big round sewn in logo) is 5 years old and it still looks better than the new Zella sock that shrank that are only 2 weeks old. I keep asking at Nordstrom Rack if they still have the old ones, but no luck.

I have been very happy with my Zella ankle socks (the "liner sock" style; I first ordered 6 years ago and those pairs are still going strong) and so ordered these to try hoping for even more support for workouts. However the material felt flimsy, slippery-plasticky, and the silicone band at the heel was uncomfortably placed. Returned.
