Is there actually quite a bit bigger than I thought they were, I know the image doesn't show them as an ankle sock, but since I bought several before of this type that usually end up being smaller when they come in and I assumed these will be the same. I was wrong! These are fantastic, super warm, super soft, and super cute. I didn't really realize it when I bought these, but when they got in I saw the bottom of them had little pads to prevent you from slipping, which is a big added bonus, very happy with these!
