Review on Non-Slip Hospital Socks With Grips For Men, Women & Adults - RATIVE Anti Skid Slipper Socks. by Jeremy May

I didn't buy these as hospital socks but as "slipper socks" to wear in the mornings when it wasn't cold enough to wear slippers. Initial quality was good. They are very warm, so not recommended during hot summers. Mine ran a bit small--I am normally a men's shoe size 10.5-11 and the XL size fit okay, just slightly loose--I didn't want them as tight as regular socks so I could slip them on and off easily and for that they were fine (the L was too tight). They are thick so not recommended with tennis shoes/sneakers.Only problem was they lasted less than a year before developing holes in the heels. I only wore them in the house, and the only non-carpeted area is the kitchen. I did use them when walking/running up and down stairs but they are also carpeted. I didn't wear them every day, and alternated between two pairs. Granted, I am not the target customer as I walk around the house more than they are probably designed for.One thing I did learn with the white ones (or any) is to not wash in hot water with any bleach like I do my regular socks, as I think it weakens the material.I would recommend getting them on sale (mine were half off) and then I think they're worth it.
