Is my understanding correct that cotton should be better?
BUT some of my pairs are getting holes in the heals now at 1 year in.
Tempting to get more at just over $1 per pair… but I was mad that they were already getting holes 1 year in (purchased at full price in store) and said I wouldn't buy them again, as there are better/thicker socks for just a bit more.
Trying to do less waste nowadays.
Good deal, but not thick. Pretty thin and hold up OK.

4 pair of these for work: Men's Hiker Boot Full Cushion Midweight Hiking Sock
6 pair of these: Men's Hiker Quarter Midweight Hiking Sock
They have almost doubled in price in 5 years, but I still got full replacement value from DT. So you could say that their warranty is inflation proof.
9.99 for one or two sets?
Cotton is one of the most comfortable but doesn't wear very well, there are several types of content used as well but they are almost never differentiated on the label (because it isn't required), so often cheap high content cotton socks wear faster than better quality cotton socks. Cotton also loses it's mild insulation properties when it gets wet and then holds that moisture unlike wool which is the best material at insulating while moist/damp/wet.
Merino wool is generally known to be the most comfortable wool, and can wear relatively well, medium to high heat damages wools composition and so air drying anything with wool will help it wear better (last longer).
Nylon content is what make socks "tough" or wear-well but it's a lousy comfort material so the balance between comfort, warmth and durability can be a tricky one, ESPECIALLY for what many consider a "reasonable" price.
Well made socks with premiums materials can be an absolute luxury, but yeah, buying various "multiple-pacs" like these, based on how many pair per dollar spent will likely not get anyone to the promised land, just FYI.
Did a deep dive into the science of socks during the pandemic and it was absolutely fascinating.
Hope any of this helps.
