I only wear SockGuy black classic socks with a 3" cuff.

They leave enough room in my shoes for insoles correcting my valgus or varus, wick sweat, don't feel like a long caterpillar crawling up my leg, and don't develop visible stains.

I also wear them when not cycling.

Doing laundry I just pair the two nearest socks because they all match.

At $10 a pair they're much more expensive than cotton, but worth it for the comfort.
