Title: Socks
Post by: mrs bouquet on September 30, 2021, 16:07

They are important to me as I have bad peripheral nerve damage and my feet always feel freezing.  I went to Asda and happened to think, look at their socks.   Well of course, they are all stapled together, but I could make out that the toe seams were flat, and they look quite generous.   Cheap and cheerful, so bought a pack of 5 for £7.   Wore them all day, but when I took them off I had a really indent above my ankle.  (My ankles are very skinny).  It made me think of men and women with sock marks.  It seems you cannot get soft-tops with flat toe seams.  If you can please let me know.  thanks   Mrs Bouquet

I know that feeling (or lack of it  ::)) Mrs B.
Have you tried the 'gentle grip'  brand of socks? Theyre the only ones I can wear nowadays.

I think I have considered them, but not sure if they have flat interlocked toe seams.   It is my toes that hurt the most.  I shall look into that make.  Thanks,  Mrs B
