Review on 🧦 ZenToes Padded Skate Socks - Lace Bite Protection for Hockey, Skating, & Tall Boots - 1 Pair by Anthony Boylan

I Roller skate with very expensive figure/artistic skates for dance/jam/artistic skating. Brand new artistic roller skate boots work well for my US 5.5 to 6 foot size, but when I step into new skates, I'm almost guaranteed a lace-bite sensation. I was skeptical when I bought them, but thankfully, they shattered my skepticism! I've been using the same pair for a year now and although I don't ride often it's about 3 hours of aggressive dance moves when I ride. These are in good condition. I'm investing in a second pair just to have as a "backup" when the ones I bought last year sweat and eventually come in handy for retirement. They are very narrow, so not recommended for large feet. Durable material yet soft enough to conform to the contour of my legs without affecting circulation. My feet are quite skinny and small (shoe size 5.5 to 6 in the US) and still fit well. But it fits perfectly "tight" on my thin little legs; more and it would be too lost. I can understand the negative reviews here that they are "too tight" for large feet. The company had to specify the size. But if they were bigger and decreased it wouldn't work for my small feet. It worked great and prevented the tip biting that happened before I bought it! I love that the padding is long enough to cover a very large portion of my thighs to the bottom of my calf. I also like that the gel is thick enough to protect the skin, but I don't think it bothers my feet when putting on new skateboard shoes. It just works perfectly for me. I have very sensitive skin and I haven't noticed any itching even when my feet are sweaty from intense skating! That tells me that the material used is of good quality. It is definitely durable as I have been using it for a year now and it still looks very good. I haven't washed yet. I'm buying a second pair as a spare in case they fall apart in the wash, which should happen soon. As soon as I wash it I'll try to add to the review. I think it's best to hand wash it. Perfect for small/narrow skater legs! So yes, I highly recommend them, but not for people with big feet.
