I bought the sock so I can wear them with my roller skates. The socks are a cute and comfy design but the problem is that they don't have any stretch to them. None whats so ever, I couldn't get them past the middle of my calf. Let alone try to force them up to my knees. Im a thick woman but I have muscler calves (I call them my man calves) and it hard to find knee high socks or over the knee boots that fit my legs. I was disappointed with these socks. Im returning them.
