Socks

NAS88297

Hell, new here 

I'm an adult, I've searched & got lost 

Socks - toe seams are killing me, It feels like my toes are being crushed, I've tried to wear inside out, different sizes etc 

Any help greatly appreciated

  • I wear mens socks in bamboo which work well for me but go bare foot as soon as I'm back home....

    I like bamboo socks too, I get them in TKMAXX, they're really comfy. One of the things that bugs me is having size 8 feet ladies socks only go from 4-7, poorly fitting socks are as bad a poorly fitting shoes in my opinion.

    Does anyone else find that the elasticated tops of socks seem to be gettting smaller and cutting in more? I have skinny lower legs and ankles and find I'm having to get socks with honeycomb elastic that are made for diabetics, luckily I can still get these in bamboo.

    Yes, I have slender ankles too but have found a sock brand that ticks all my boxes!  TKMaxx used to be my go to for socks but I started finding their socks uncomfortable too... I buy Swole Panda branded socks because they come in brilliant designs and my feet smile when I put them on.  I still take them off the first chance I get though as my feet are truly happy when NAKED. :-) - Strange that word didn't get censored. :-)

    A bit of insight here - my wife used to sell to TKMaxx and they offer really poor deals to suppliers but will let them go for large volume, low margin contracts in stapels like socks or for more "designer" items will buy up old stock and stuff that hasn't sold but pay peanuts for it.

    You tend to get a real mish-mash of products which were unsuccessful or built down to a price in there so really need to check stuff thoroughly before buying to make sure it wasn't unsuccessful because the cut/fit is off.

    I wouldn't really recommend then to buy stuff you need to repeat as the chance of finding the same thing again isn't high.
