Pure wool doesn't stretch, doesn't hold its shape and can't be machine washed. It can also rip if stretched too far - think about the old days when grandmas repaired holes in knit socks. They didn't have polyester yarn.
My first reaction to 70% wool socks is that they might be pretty stiff and won't hold up long term, but would be warm and dry. For $2.50 a pair that seems more than fine even if they end up in the trash after a year.
