I have foot issues. I need to find comfy socks that are thicker than the ones they sell at stores like Fleet Feet. I find most of those socks on the restricting side. Anyone have some favorite names they can share?

I usually get Puma anklet style. Love them. I get them at their outlet store.

My feet are on the larger side (9 ww) Most women's socks are made for a 4-8 narrow/medium shoe size. Sometimes I can find a 8-12 sock for women but mostly I just go with men's socks. I find men's socks over all are made of a heavier cotton or wool
There are also socks for diabetics that have super soft non restricting tops on them

And usually cheaper. |

I like the Gold Toe brand, I wear their crew socks to work every day with athletic shoes. They wear well and don't shrink.

There not thick, but I like the Champion brand from Target or the New Balance from the NB outlet. They wick the moisture away. I tried bamboo socks, but they didn't do anything special for me except lighten my wallet.

I'm a big fan of Smart Wool socks (they last for years!). I usually buy them at REI when they're having a sale. I also like Bridgedale socks, but they discontinued my favorite style several years ago so haven't bought any recently.

I have foot issues and need a lot of support. Between compression fractures and running, my poor feet need all the help they can get! I have rather small feet and cannot stand too much cushioning. Here are my most favorite socks of all time. First, my favorite of the two, here, and then these, which I really love too but the first link are just a touch better. |

I buy THESE Nike socks for working out. They have a band of compression around the middle that I don't find constricting. I actually find the compression to be the perfect amount of pressure for extra support. They are very cushion-y feeling. |

The Thorlos look nice. I might have to take advantage of the free pair offer! I've worn these for years now. They're a little thicker than most and very soft on the inside. Good luck. I think it's probably easier to find a soul mate than it is to find good socks! OK, I give up. I can't get the link to do anything other than bring us back here. But they're the C9 by Champion® Women's Heel Tab Socks 4-Pack from Target. And the link in my quote response below works. |

I took advantage of that free pair of Thorlo socks last night when I was reading this thread. I already got an email today, notifying me that they've been shipped. How great is that?! I did have to pay for shipping, $4.95, but that's not bad for a free pair of socks that seems to be highly recommended.

I just wanted to say that I got my free pair of Thorlo socks yesterday. I ordered and received these and I LOVE them. I think I'll be ordering more of these. Has anyone else already received there's? What do you think of yours? |
