Socks are high quality and made in Italy and coupled with convenience worth the price. At Saks, I paid more for Saks' own brand socks (made in Italy, too) and quality was definitely not better.

This is one of the top 5 most expensive countries in the world... and socks are no exception. They may need to revise their pricing for the US market. I don't think $10 - regardless of quality and convenience - will fly. $10 per pair in Switzerland is about as close to stealing as you can legally get.

However they do solve a problem I have - I have been mail ordering dozens of identical black socks for years so being able to do it via web makes it easier. Now since they are based in Switzerland they could stuff those socks with cannabis sativa and presto! you have a very profitable venture. Live in Europe and never heard of them.
