Rainbow SocksRainbow Socks - Damen Herren Diabetiker Socken Ohne Gummibund - 8 Paar

I purchased as said non-binding. However the tops are binding and leave imprints on my legs.

My shoes size is 45 but still it’s large for me

These are not proper socks for Dibetic patients normal socks with a not good price

The finishing is very bad from top is not stitshes

People talk about unsightly marks around their ankles as if these marks are the only consequence of poor circulation.. After wearing these socks for only a short time, I realised that the marks were only the tip of the iceberg. These socks have improved my circulation so much that my feet are no longer deadly white, my ankles feel loose and I’m not aware of wearing socks. It’s like walking barefoot. I think that because of the wicking quality of the fabric, between my toes is no longer dry and flaking. There is no build up of moisture which I used to find when taking off my old socks.Highly recommended!

I bought these for a neighbour who is diabetic but also had sore and swollen feet. He already had soft top socks but the lower portion round the foot itself were too tight. These were so comfortable and allowed his feet to breathe, he said they were so light he felt as if he wasn't even wearing socks. I do think wearing these helped the swelling to go down, that and keeping his feet raised when possible as he had no medication for the swelling.I took a pair to the nursing home where a friend of ours is and she suffers with dreadfully swollen feet. The size of these socks was slightly bigger than her normal shoes size but she loved them and the staff were asking me where I bought them as they were such a lovely comfortable fit. So I will be ordering more.I must find out how these are when washed and might get some for my husband as he doesn't like the way socks grip too tightly as they seem to cause leg cramps.

I've had these socks two weeks and I've received two requests for reviews.Let me share my situation and experience.I have chronic kidney disease and take two different medications that seem to cause edema which along with the hot weather, cause me to retain a lot of water in my legs.This gets uncomfortable when wearing ordinary socks from M&S, especially as some seem that have stronger elastic than others.I finally decided to buy these.They were delivered quickly. The socks look ok although they do feel quite thin. When we put them on, in the morning wheny legs are "normal" after lying down, they go on very easily. The lack of tight grip is obvious from the start and I did wonder if they would stay up.They did and by the evening and "maximum water", they still felt comfortable. When I pulled them down to inspect my ankles, there wasn't the compressed waist created by the elastic of ordinary socks.When I walked around without socks, there were occasions when they did get pulled off. This is acceptable to me because I don't see how you can have grip to keep them on but no grip to be comfortable although I see some reviewers complain.The other complaints I've seen relate to how well they wash and age. The instructions say wash at 40 C but don't tumble dry.Since they've been washed, I haven't worn them again yet. This is because the weather has cooled down enough for me not to need special socks so much. I've held off because of concerns about their durability.This is why I've only given a 3 star review at the moment. I can't confirm that they wash and wear well or they don't.I am pleased I've tried them because they are much more comfortable and I'll be disappointed if they only last a few wears.

These socks are great. The veins in my lower legs were damaged by sepsis and I had real problens with ordinary socks leaving deep marks on skin. These new socks are so soft and leave no marks. I was concerned that they might slip off and end up inside my shoe but they stay in place! I would recommend them.

After suffering with some circulation problems I have been looking for loose fitting socks for ages and all the purchases I have made have never managed to succeed in this. I bought these hoping to find a type that I can use and I am glad to say that I have finally found what I was looking for. I have been wearing these for a few weeks now and I have no indents in my legs at all. My circulation is already improving and I shall be looking to order some more very soon. These socks are thin but still very durable. I had read reviews before my purchase saying that these will fall down but I am a size 11 and have not experienced this problem while wearing my shoes/ trainers, you can experience this if you are walking around in the sock but that only happens if you drag your feet. I am very happy and recommend this to anyone who are finding that shop bought socks keep leaving painful imprints in your legs.
