What it does

A six pair pack of thin, mesh vented women's ankle socks, reviewed here from the same Hanes line in its Black/Grey Amazon listing because the white assortment listing could not be read.

  • Mesh ventilation panels for airflow
  • Hanes X-Temp fabric meant to adapt to body temperature
  • Moisture wicking Cool Comfort fabric
  • Arch support band for a closer fit
  • Sold in several color assortments, including white and black/grey

A low cost pick for warm weather and everyday sneakers if you want a thin sock that breathes. The trade-off is a snug ankle band that some buyers find too tight, and thin fabric that can wear through on the sole with hard use.
