valinwa----my husban puts holes in his socks too really fast. If you have a serger just serge the toes off and trim.also have just sewn them and trimed before having a serger. or if they are on top where you can sew and cut the extra off and they might be th right size for you then. also after they are no good anymore they make great dust rags or rags just slip on your hand and go.
