    No, but upon closer inspection the right one is probably a more faded version of the left one.

    The middle is certainly different.

    But they seem to do this in other colors, where they have two slightly different versions.

      Yeah. I get min from Costco and I have a set that all the colors are slightly off the entire rest of my sets I’ve bought over time. Iirc they were manufactured in a different country

      I find the variation to be pretty common with all the branded socks so I just get the ones with bold colors that will be easy to sort. Even when I go all white or black I toss the old ones when I get a new package because there is nothing worse than being slightly different styles or one new and the other worn in.

      Mismatched feel is even worse than mismatched colors!
