Positive experience with Adidas women's socks lasting years and staying put
Yesss (women’s) Adidas socks are all I get — aside from wool hiking boot socks. They’re cheap, they last a few years, and they actually stay put while wearing different shoe styles.

Puma socks from Costco noted as better than Adidas
I'll second this. Much better than Adidas, Nike etc.

Adidas ankle socks from Costco develop holes quickly
Same issue here with the adidas ankle socks. The Puma ones are very good, though.
