Review on Top-notch Comfort: Gold Toe Men's 656s Cotton Crew Athletic Socks, Multipairs by Nathan Ortiz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

They didn't invent socks, but they did a great job of making them more comfortable.

I always thought socks were socks. As a kid in the '60s and '70s and in striped tube socks that balled up at my toes, I never thought much about socks. They were all so sore and stretched that they used rubber bands to support them. No, we didn't throw things away until they literally fell apart. I mean, now I buy good socks that don't get tangled in my fingers and don't have seams in the most painful places, but most socks don't have those annoying qualities. more. The last bundle I bought was stretched out and almost impossible to clean. They held every stain left by most socks. However, even bleach was ineffective. So I looked again for more. I came across these socks and when they arrived I put them on without expecting anything special. I was wrong. These socks, despite being similar to all the other socks I've bought over the years, had an immediate different feel. They are thicker at the bottom which is great for me due to severe neuropathy. I don't have much feeling in my legs unless it's pain, then the pain is unbelievable. The pain is unbelievable and indescribable compared to normal leg pain. I've been wearing these socks for a few weeks now and while my feet will never heal, I've found that these socks give my feet the best barrier to cat food or cat toys I step on in the middle of the night. They don't stretch like other socks and I find the gray a nice change from the ubiquitous white. They have golden tips that are hard to see at times, but I don't. I'm not buying them for that two inch gold paint. After wearing them for several weeks, for several hours at a time for a week while at Disney World, I was hooked. So I immediately ordered another twelve pairs when I got home, because after a few years it's almost impossible to find previous orders. I use it to keep my legs and feet warm. Neuropathy kills nerves in your legs as well as other parts of your body, but mine started in my legs. Heat and cold are indistinguishable, so I have to be sure my feet are warm or I risk frostbite. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants good, durable socks that offer a little more support than the regular socks we're used to. to.
