I PURCHASED 2 PAIRS OF THESE SOCKS FOR MY ELDERLY MOTHER WHO IS ALWAYS COLD.  I'M SO GLAD TO FIND THEM.  THEY ARE SINFULLY SOFT AND STRETCH COMFORTABLY TO FIT EVEN SWOLLEN FEET AND ANKLES.  THESE ARE THE BEST I'VE BEEN ABLE TO FIND, ESPECIALLY GOOD FOR PEOPLE WITH HEALTH ISSUES THAT CREATE FOOT PROBLEMS.
