The bones sock is the second offering from Saga along with the Academics sock.
Again like the Academics the Bones is offered in one size fits all, but luckily for me the Bones fits both longer and less tight in the calf. If you are an average sized guy then I would recommend the Bones over the Academics which I found far to tight in the Calf
The foot fits the same as the Academics and again fits me well (size 26 boots). The weight (thickness) feels slightly heavier to me then the Academics but I think that is mainly to do with the additional thread on the inside for the bones pattern.
I was worried all this additional material inside would be uncomfortable but I have found no issues at all. They are quite comfortable and the tighter mid foot sections holds the sock in place well. I would like some extra padding in the toe, heel and shin however.
They do however have a logo stitched on the inside at the top which I have found to be slightly uncomfortable on the cuff of a boot. I would prefer there kept the sides of the sock clean.
In terms of style I love these socks. I have the black ones with the white bones and they do look kind of freaky when you wear them.
It would be nice if they had a left and right foot (both socks are a right foot with a left leg) and if they did I would be using these as try on socks in the shop.
Although these are not the highest quality ever they are some of my favorites as they are just so cool.
