Sierra Socks Diabetic Hi-Ankle Cotton Socks-Ribbed and wide Calf For Added Comfort-Arthritic Cushioned socks for Arch Support

This is the 2nd time I have ordered these socks. They are great for feet and ankles that swell.

I bought some of these a few years ago in bright colors because I needed socks that wouldn't inflame my ankles that retain water. I bought some black socks locally but they were too slippery and caused blisters so decided to buy these same socks in black. They are a little thicker than average cotton socks but I love them.

I'm surprised these aren't too small. I wear a women's size 11 shoe. They fit fine. Not tight and miserable. The sole cushion feature is minuscule. These certainly won't overheat your feet. I like the length of them wherein they rest about 1-1/2 inches above my ankle bone. The cuff is very comfortable. The toe seams are soft.The yellow sock arrived with a snag in the cuff edge so I anticipate an early demise for that one. The pastels are pretty.The white set I ordered had to be returned because one sock had either chocolate or dried blood on it.

I really like the socks. However, I got them for my mom and they shrunk with one washing. Keep in mind that these contain quite a bit of cotton and will shrink. They ended up too small for her so I kept them. I like them a lot and even if they shrink, they are ok for me. I usually wear a size 7.5-8. If you have larger feet and they are also sensitive, these may end up being too small for you unless you are careful and wash them in cold water.

I was tired of all the poly blend socks. I ordered these for the second time because they wear well and remain well fitting. I don’t know why they refer to them as diabetic socks...I cant see where they differ from an ordinary cotton socks...that being said...I don’t seem to be able to find cotton socks in department stores. Every pair seems to be a poly blend. These are very comfortable in athletic shoes because they don’t slip and stay in place.

These socks are top quality and feel great. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star rating is that the socks run small. I only wear a ladies size 5 shoe and the socks are too snug on my foot. I have to stretch them when they come out of the washer. If they were only a little longer they would be my favorite sock ever!

I wanted something other than "black" socks to wear with my leggings and since I have trouble with my circulation I really prefer diabetic socks. These are pretty but a lot tighter than I was expecting. They still work better than regular ankle socks but aren't as loose as my other diabetic socks (many different brands).

I am not diabetic or with foot neuropathy so I cannot comment on how these socks for for that, however I bought these because I was sick of getting blisters from seams in socks. I've reordered and bought more after my first set because they are INCREDIBLY comfortable. I would highly recommend these socks for anyone who likes comfy feet :-). I've had them a couple months and they hold up well too! The only "negative" that I can think of is that they are not super supportive like an athletic sock, however they are great for walking around! I'll definitely be buying these again the next time I need socks.

Ordered these as I liked the colours and the cushioned soles. Supposed to be for diabetics arthritic conditions, but could tell the elastic too tight when I unpacked and indeed they left indentations around my ankle after five minutes. I wasn't even standing or doing anything really physical. I have poor circulation and get Odema around my ankles. Very disappointed.
