The Dr. Scholl's product is a non binding odor resistant sock that allows circulation. The diabetes and circulatory socks also offer a non irritating toe seam.

Comfortable, as described
These are great socks. Very comfortable. Be careful when unpacking them or the plastic string holding the socks together will rip the socks if you force them apart. My feet are size 10 wide and the 7-12 size fit great.Pros:-Comfortable, as described-Great priceCons:-Sock fibers will tear if you aren't careful removing the plastic string while unpacking them. Dr. Scholls should find an alternate way to pack these instead of something that can ruin the socks before use. Matter of fact, all garment companies need to. That little plastic string thing needs to go.

The answer to a difficult problem
My huband is 86, diabetic,with multiple other health problems. His feet åre grotesquely swollen, and he is no longer limber enough to reach them. Getting socks on, even the largest I've been able to find, has been a real ordeal. Then I found these socks! We both loved the first two pairs so much I immediately reordered. They are very easy to put on with a "sock putter onner" dressing aide, and once on are very soft and comfortable. They are a godsend to people with reduced heart function leading to swollen feet. They are also a great find for anyone with large feet who has difficulty putting normal socks on.

These are wonderful socks!
These are wonderful socks!!! Can't beat them and hard to wear any other kind once you wear them. The downside is that they are so soft and comfy that they don't last as long - they tend to lose their shape faster than tighter woven socks, but they are sooo worth replacing once in awhile! The other downside is if you wear tight fitting shoes they may be too bulky to wear with them. If you allow for their bulk, they are the BEST! YOu will love them to sleep in too!! I like to order them from Amazon but you can also get them at Walmart and some of the pharmacies. Keep them stocked, wear shoes that aren't tight, and your feet will feel great!

Comfy socks, and no sagging in the cuff area
Bought these for my husband because, after standing on his feet all day, regular socks were binding and uncomfortable at the cuffs. He likes these socks much better, and doesn't have the imprint around his ankles from the cuff fabric pattern in the evenings. They're comfortable, loose enough to avoid feeling constrictive, but also tight enough that the cuffs don't fall down during the day. I wash them regularly, usually with bleach and in hot water, and they're holding up well despite the "abuse" I put them through. I think I'm going to replace all his old socks with these, just so he can be more comfortable!

These socks are perfect. They are very soft and flexible
I bought these for my 95 year old father who was having trouble putting regular socks on and was also experiencing swelling of his calves above the socks and tingling in his feet. These socks are perfect. They are very soft and flexible. Easy to put on, not constricting at all, but don't bag out around the ankles.

Loose fitting but problematic
I wear a size 8 and these are too long in the foot even after washing. However, they are super comfortable and I can move my toes around and they don't bind at my ankle. Great for all day wearing. Here's the problem: the loose stretchy fabric around the top of the ankle is so loosely woven, that it picks up every seed known to mankind from my half wild backyard. Also after mowing on my riding lawn mower while wearing these, they are a magnet for all the grass clippings and again seed pods which stick to the material. When i tried to remove these numerous seeds, it pulled out individual threads. A mess! I didn't even bother after that. I threw them out. Still have 3 pairs I'll save in the back of my sock drawer for specific wearing circumstances. I judged ordered some Thorlo Diabetic ankle socks. Everything from Thorlo is 1st rate, even the $14/PR price tag.

Best socks I've ever bought
I bought these for my husband which was very skeptical about wearing ankle high socks. Now he wants me to buy him more. He loves them. He wears a size 9 1/2 shoe and the socks fit him very well. He said they are so comfortable and he no longer has the swelling in his ankles. He also said his legs don't hurt anymore like they did. I would highly recommend these.

Very comfy!
I have other DR. Scholl's diabetic socks, and while they are holding up well, I find them too hot in the summer. These ankles socks appear to be made from the same polyester, but they are thinner that my old socks. That, plus the fact that they're ankle socks, seem to make them cooler. I may not buy more, as they are pricey, and I've found cotton Fruit of the Looms that fit me well too. But if the cotton socks wear out too fast, I could see myself buying more.

comfortable. I highly recommend this product
Fit perfectly, very, very, comfortable. I highly recommend this product, as they do not restrict blood flow and so they don't leave your legs looking like giant peanuts.

Feels so good
I wish I had ordered these in May because they feel so good just trying them on. Perfect for my foot; Men's 11 4E with just the right tension to not restrict blood flow and not too thick or too thin. Hopefully they will wash up as well as other Dr. Scholl's socks.
