I love these socks! I have a lot of discomfort with my feet... fibromyalgia, orthotics, etc. Any little wrinkle or tightness is terrible! But I am very happy with these. Some socks leave a depressed ring around my ankles, but these are very stretchy and don't bother me. They are cushioned, not thin, but they didn't make my wide shoes too tight. They did leave a lot of lint in the dryer, but they didn't bleed on other clothes, and I love having some COLORS to wear, instead of boring white, grey, tan, and black! I am happy that I bought them and will probably buy another pack!These socks are extra soft and comfortably roomy that is great for special diabetic needs.They cost a bit more but are well worth it because of their superior fit and quality of the extra soft material.I bought these not because I am diabetic but because my feet swell at the end of the day. Unfortunately, these socks are still a bit too tight in the foot (just as regular socks are) even though they are quite loose in the cuff. However, they are nice and soft and comfy to wear. I find myself slipping off my shoes in the evening and stretching the socks to give my feet some extra room. Too bad they don't come in larger sizes.My elderly mother has circulation issues, and these pretty, soft socks stay up without creating any banding and impression from a too tight sock band. Perfect product.I can't wear most compression socks because I have a painful area on the top of my foot right at the ankle. It's from a stress fracture of my talus bone on my left foot. That is where the foot meets the ankle. So socks tend to squeeze that area more than others especially when I bend it causing pain. I also have swollen ankles from edema. Sone socks are okay on my right foot but not my left. I have the same problem with shoe sizes too. These didn't pinch or squeeze too tightly on either foot but still helped with the edema in my ankles and calves. They stayed up well with out leaving marks from the edema. The colors are great and fun to wear.Would definitely recommend them and plan to order more!This is my second purchase of these diabetic socks.I wore them during pregnancy and they help with swelling legs and varicose veins. After pregnancy these socks are still the best one for me, they continue to reduce swelling and promote good blood flow. I wear them at home as well as with my boots and sneakers.Dislike nothing.Socks have great colors, I bought these for my mother who has edema in her lower legs. These are the most comfy socks I've found for her in a long time. They don't pinch or press in to her legs. I would definitely recommend these.
