My brother has 2 pairs of these socks and says “they are the most comfortable socks I’ve ever worn” but can’t for the life of him remember who makes them or where he bought them to buy more.

The first thing to note is that the logo on the other pair is in a different color but in the same location on the sock.

I did a reverse image search with Google, Imageraider, & TinEye but got nothing. I’ve searched Google with all kinds of phrases to try and get it to show the logo. I’ve looked at local stores like DSW, JC Penny, & Macys to see if they sell any socks that have the same logo, but no dice. I am hoping someone here can help.

I tried google image search on a Photoshopped version of your image, but to no avail.

But when I googled “buffalo brand socks” I got images of … Buffalo Brand Socks.

[Here’s one image](http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/2/0/3/3/0/0/webimg/856990594_o.jpg) where it sure looks like your logo.

I googled “Buffalo Socks” and the sixth picture had a pair of socks with the Buffalo David Bitton logo that looks a lot like the ones on those socks. They are available on Amazon. Good luck and enjoy your socks!

AHh… the joy of socks. Why are they always so much smoother when new than after some wearing?
