not exactly 'style' or 'beauty' but can someone recommend men's socks please?

Dh got some socks from M&S for Xmas and each pair has worn through. He needs some decent quality cotton socks for work that won't get holes in the toes in a matter of weeks. Anyone recommend any that last? Thank you!

Hi my dh is a builder and wears through socks very quickly no matter what brand we buy. Have found the heavy thick walking or thermo type last the longest, currently have the heat holders and will buy some more. I do feel the need to wash them at 60 so that might shorten their life span. Working in steel toe capped boots - a thick sock is fine for him, if your dh works in an office, - ignore everything i've said.

my ds wears through his socks at the toe - I think it's just the way mens/ boys shoes are made!

Maybe think of his socks as a disposable item and buy cheap often? (rather like my dd's hair bits :) )

I always stock up on Pringle socks for dh, they always have them in TK Maxx and they seem to wear well.
