Men's and Women's Casual Crew Socks (Pack of 3) Made in USA! Cushioned Sole

The perfect answerI bought these for my husband who is 5’10” around 200 lbs. his socks have always been tight around his calf. He has trouble getting them on/off his feet. He wears a size 12 shoeThese are by perfect fit loosely around his calf but do not droop. Easy to get on and off and he is rid of the marks all the other socks were leaving by binding his leg. Can be good for circulation. Can’t recommend these enough!

I have a bit of a sock addiction, different socks for every activity. But if they have a toe seam that rubs on my toe, if they fall down, if they feel like a tourniquet, out they go. These "Loose Fit Stays Up" socks are incredible, and they live up to their name. They do stay up without constricting your legs. I LOVE that they are primarily cotton and not some synthetic that is basically un-eco friendly plastic trash that doesn't breathe. I work in habitat restoration nearly every day, in all kinds of weather, in hiking boots or tall rubber boots, and these serve me well. I have ordered multiple times! These are my mainstay socks. Only one minor thing is that they are shipped in a plastic bag and I wish we'd stop all this single use plastic, which is so destructive to our oceans and planet. But I think these are the best socks ever. Oh and I followed the recommendation NOT to size up and that was good advice.

I bought these socks for my son before as he had been complaining of the socks he had. To my surprise, he ask me to order more for him. He said they were the most comfortable he has had.

This is just my first impression with trying them on straight out of the package. The description on Amazon says loose fit stays up. Well, that’s not quite right. These definitely do not fall down. However, they definitely do not have a loose fit. These socks are advertised as size XL socks thatwill fit a shoe size of 15 1/2 to 19. I wear a size 17 shoe and there’s no way that these socks will comfortably fit somebody with a size 18 shoe. However, the build quality and materials seem really good and the material is extra thick and soft. Time will tell if these socks will work out for me or not.

Don't worry about the greenish color of the socks. The tan is really tan and not green. My husband finds these loose tops very comfortable and because he has a crushed ankle, they are easy to pull over his feet and heel.

I think I have found my forever socks.. Lol. Though I have only been wearing these socks for about 3 days. They live up to their expectations given in the description. They're soft, they're roomy. They stay up on your leg. They don't bind up. Or make marks in your leg. Your feet feel like they're being carried in a silk basket. I only bought the three pack but now I'm going to buy about 12 pairs. They seem to be very well made. All in all I am very happy with them.

These are the best! The name says it all. Loose fit but stays up. It's been a constant struggle to find comfortable socks that aren't too tight around the calf. But these aren't tight and I couldn't be happier.

After buying every size except Small, I finally bought the largest size they make and it's still too tight on the calves of my legs. I have undersized calves and my shoe size is a medium width and size 11½ and medium is a little too wide. A few years ago, I purchased a size 13 sock at a well known nationwide clothing store and it was gigantic - could not even fit my foot and giant sock in my shoes. Again, I have slender calves and narrow feet. Do NOT believe the shoe chart. It is just plain wrong. You need at least two sock sizes bigger than they recommend. Or best to just buy the X-Large socks and work your way down. I started with a medium and ended up at X-Large and wish there was an XXL size. These must be Chinese sizes out in the rural areas where they don't get enough food to eat. I lived in China. I know what I'm talking about. Shanghai people are much bigger.I laid all three sizes of socks I purchased on top of each other with the largest size on the bottom. The diameter of all three sizes are virtually identical. I washed the Red XL size in cold water and then let them air dry. These are cotton and they absolutely do shrink if you use warm water or put them in the dryer no matter how low the temperature. I am an acclaimed engineer and I believe in facts. I'm currently rated #212 on Amazon and was as good as #151 when I had to stop the Vine program because it hurts my neck too much to write reviews. A drunk driver at noon going the wrong way on a one-way street hit me broadside at the intersection breaking my neck. The only difference between sizes is the overall length of the socks. This is an exception to my rule of not writing any more reviews. I do not know how this product is rated so high unless they have changed to a cheaper design in recent times. The only size that begins to fit me is the XL Red size. And it covers nearly my entire calf, which is good in the winter, but very hot in the summer. It's still too tight and I am six feet tall and weigh 178 pounds with very little fat on my body. I have a large stock of the medium green size that I will donate. And a sizeable number of blue striped socks. I do like being able to identify the size with the color strip above the toe. However, the green striped socks I received have only a very faint color I never even noticed until I bought the blue size. The red size is much better. My wife who is absolutely not colorblind agrees that the green striped ones are almost invisible. If you look in just the right place in bright light, we can only see a hint of green. My expensive Sketcher shoe size is size 11 and that is a little too wide. The arch is perfect.Until washed a couple of times, the part that goes over my foot is too big and bunches up when I tie my shoes making it uncomfortable in which to walk. Be aware these socks are high percentage cotton and they definitely after they have been washed a few times, that part of the sock will shrink and fit better. Do NOT use hot water or they will shrink too much. But since there is a significant amount of cotton in these socks, that means the entire sock will shrink. And the part that goes over my calf will shrink as well, my main pet peeve. By the time I take the socks off, there is a rather deep dent all around my leg at the top - good way to get edema - swelling above the ankles because blood is not returning up to the heart. I've had edema one time briefly and it is extremely painful for weeks even after the swelling has gone down. You have to take diuretics to excrete urine and thus excess fluid and that depletes your potassium - the other salt that makes your heart beat. No potassium, no heart beats. Buy balanced salt with potassium. I've had that happen and nearly died from a stupid doctor giving me the wrong blood pressure medicine. Turns out I didn't even need blood pressure medicine in the first place.There don't seem to be any socks with variable diameter - one diameter for the foot and one for the calf of the leg. This summer I weighed as little as 172 pounds, so I've put on six pounds of winter weight, but not in the sock or calf area. If you are built with giant calves ideal for football, these are not going to work for you - may be better than regular socks, but still like a tourniquet on the top of your calves.My suggestion is no matter what size sock you normally wear, buy the very biggest sock this company makes if you care about your blood supply returning from your foot. I don't know why they can't make a normal size for the foot and a wider size for your calves. One sock fits everybody in the world mentality. The photos must be fake or taken back when they were a different size than now. Americans are built in all different sizes, some giants and some skinny people. Why can't they make socks for Americans, the people who purchase these kinds of socks? I lived in China for five years, and when I arrived in 2005, I was always the tallest person on the subway. But five years later, the new generation with adequate food supply while growing up was as tall or taller than I am. Some women were nearly as tall as I was. But they still have slender legs because it is a national disgrace to be overweight in China. They've stopped eating rice because now they realize it causes diabetes. It's simply not the same China anymore. They still speak 55 different languages and blends make the language barrier even worse. They are trying to standardize on Mandarin, but it's going to take generations to do it.--------Original review of Medium Green Label Socks: One very nice thing for families is the socks are color-coded for size. The only place these socks are extra wide is on the foot. On your legs, they are only slightly larger than the normal tourniquet style stocks with extra strong elastic to choke the blood supply. After being washed several times, the lower part of the socks that go over your feet, shrink and become normal size, but still very thick and cushioned. I like that part. At first, the socks over the foot were extra long, about an inch too long. Repeated washings will shrink that extra inch back to a normal length. Consider this size to be an extra small sock after repeated washing. I exaggerate only slightly.I ended up buying two sets of the biggest Extra Large Socks and they are barely suitable, but they are a keeper nonetheless. The socks are quite long and go over the top of my calf - good for cold weather and not too much blood choking dents in my legs. I wash them in cold water and most importantly, the coolest temperature in the dryer. The dryer is the main place the sock shrink. Tumble dry if necessary.What irks me is the part that goes over my calf is hardly any better than any other sock. I don't think people with big feet necessarily have skinny calves. It's more likely the opposite. Normal feet and big calves. They just want to manufacture socks that are the same diameter from toe to the other end for convenience. These socks leave deep imprints on the skin of my calves and I have skinny legs. For people with truly big calves on their legs, I can only imagine how tight these socks fit on their legs. Yes, they will stretch some, but that does not solve much of anything. It inhibits lymph fluid circulation to stagnate in your legs - not a good thing medically if you value your feet.I've been searching for a company that makes sensible socks that are not so tight on my legs for years. I've even looked into making my own custom socks from a company in China, but the initial cost of one prototype pair of socks is $300 and the minimum order of socks of each size is 10,000 pairs. So even though I think that's a good business opportunity, I do not want to gamble that much money living only on social security. I thought that these socks were what I wanted, but they only have half the solution - people with extra big feet. I have slender feet, so these socks are too big on my feet and too tight on the calves of my leg - the only thing I wanted. I wanted socks for large diameter calves that didn't leave an imprint of the socks on my legs. I suppose there is no such sock in existence. It seems so obvious that this is a big market. Thought these socks were the answer, but the description and the actual results do not match. But they are still the best I've found, just the hype doesn't match the socks.Maybe I will try a "Go Fund Me" project to build the perfect sock - a sock with one diameter for the foot and a bigger size for the calf of the leg. And offer different diameters of calves from normal to extra huge. Leave a comment if you think this is a good idea. I know my way around China a little and have one clothing contact in particular. I know they make very expensive socks for morbidly obese people, but even though the epidemic of obesity continues to increase in American, I don't want to be in that business.
