Mens Black Extra Wide Big Foot Comfort Fit Diabetic Socks (3 Pair Pack), UK 11-14 (EU 45-49), Black

Nice size socks good quality, my son says they are very comfortable to wear

Bought these for someone who has very swollen feet and struggles with tight socks. They are good quality and very comfortable to wear, easy to put on and launder.

Good value sturdy fit used previously and materials holding shape for long time

Over the years I have gradually gained weight, and over that time I’ve noticed that socks have always been getting a little less comfy than they used to be. After starting to notice that my legs were always red and itchy from wearing tight socks, most likely due to heat and sweat, I stumbled upon these extra wide ones.I have size 12 feet, so ordered the 11-14 size socks. I was concerned they might be loose and keep falling down, especially after reading that most people bought them for swollen feet or to wear over bandages, etc.. I don’t have any of those issues, I’m just fat with thick calves.I needn’t have worried, though. As soon as I received them I put a pair on and they were perfect. They were so easy to put on, were nice and comfortable, but most importantly they were really easy to pull up without any strong elastic to keep them digging into me.Over the last few days that I’ve had them, I have noticed my legs are much more comfortable without any itching or sweating. The red marks I previously had have nearly completely gone. I was so impressed that I instantly bought another 6 pairs.Some are talking about them shrinking in the wash. I washed 3 pairs today on a 14 minute quick wash at 20c. They came out absolutely fine. The packaging is a little strange as it says hand wash only, but then says they are machine washable at 40c. I’ll stick to a quick wash at 20c and let them air dry. No issues with shrinking that I’ve noticed.Very pleased with these and would highly recommend them to anyone who finds regular socks too tight or restrictive.

As described

Disappointing. I bought them since they were advertised as "extra wide". These just seem to be ordinary width socks i.e., not wider than any I have bought elsewhere in the past and actually narrower than some I already have! Keeping them to wear on my left foot - but they are not suitable at all for the right (that needs extra width after an operation). They are fine I guess as ordinary socks but please cease to suggest they are extra wide!

The socks are exactly as described and are great socks to wear in shoes but I wanted lounging socks and they are not heavy enough for my purpose and I will probably be looking for another pair.But as socks they are fine

They are brilliant when you have leg ulcers and diabetes as they do not did in your ankles and legs
