I’d like to find some blue cotton crew socks too. They go better with my jeans. They all seem to come in white or black.
make the switch to Merino wool somewhere around a 80/20 wool/nylon gets you long life and no swampfoot. I own zero pair of cotton socks with no plans to change that. A couple pairs of low 100% poly athletic socks for fashionable footwear.

Don’t.

Having owned Thorlo (made with an acrylic blend, by the way) and Darn Tough (merino wool), there is no comparison. The prices are fairly similar, Darn Tough is a better product, also US made, and has a lifetime warranty. You wear out the sock, they send you new ones; FOREVER!

I wear whities just about every day with my workout shoes at the gym, and sometimes hanging around the house. Not when going out. I get cheapos at Target, and toss them without regret when they get worn out. Big ass bag of 10 or so sets are around $18. Suits me just fine. If you're wearing them everyday, I guess the more expensive brands might be better. I wear support socks when not wearing the whites because I like the massage felling they give. I notice most all of the brands mentioned here, there are very few whites. Just wild color combos which is not my style. I guess I'm a stuffy old fart.

Athletic socks I generally wear Under Armor. Everything else is some version of smartwool with the exception of flying/distance driving when I wear compression socks from an obstacle course company called Mudgear.
