My Dad lives in these socks! We started with two pairs and have ordered the 6 pack after testing them out. These are soft, medium thickness, but stay put and the tread keeps him from slipping in the areas in his apartment where there is linoleum. I tried dozens of socks but they all annoyed him; from compression socks to pricey, gimmicky socks that he wound up throwing away. The no-skid tread is moderate so he doesn't trip.
These come in sensible colors and they are cozy and stretchy. He has swelling problems on one foot so stretchy is important so he can wear socks that match. Simple solutions are always the best and these socks make him happy and when Dads happy I'm happy!
I'm sending a pic we just took on his birthday--he literally wears them like shoes they are so comfy
