RIP OFF BIG TIME
The place I normally order Dr. Scholl's Men's Diabetes and Circulatory Crew Sock on Amazon was out of stock. So I ordered these. What a rip-off ! ! They are way to small. They are much thinner than they should be. I have ordered these socks for years so I know what these are supposed to be like. I suspect these are a cheap knock-off imitation ! 1 You have been warned if this post survived.

Dr. Scholl's Has Gone Cheap
These are not the same socks Dr. Scholl's has sold for years. The knit is tighter and Big and Tall no longer fit Big and Tall people. I've literally bought 100 pair of these over the last 15 years, but won't make that mistake again. Another product that has been cheapened.

No longer any good.
These used to be great socks. Not too tight but nicely snug on the calf. Unfortunately they do tend to become loose socks after a year of washing so I buy another few pairs. These are totally different. The foot part are similar and snug, but the tube part of the socks that go up your calf are far far too tight compared what they used to be. Its actually painful and near impossible to fully pull these socks up compared to past versions. Shame, Dr Scholls used to make quality products but not anymore. Will no longer buy anything from them.

Not nearly as good as they used to be
I agree with the reviewer who said that "Dr. Scholl's Has Gone Cheap." I own several pairs of these socks, purchased two years ago or so, and they are much thicker and more cushioned than those being sold today. In addition, the new-style socks do not come up as far on my calves as the old-style socks. The new ones just feel like ordinary socks. There is nothing "diabetic" about them. Back they go to Amazon.

They aren't what the woman's version is like at all. Not loose, not soft, yucky.
A few issues. I order from Dr schools for years now the woman's socks of the same name. They should be made quite similar. I expect them to be loose. These are tight on my legs. My daughter's found them tight. They are pretty much no good here. There are 4 of us. My husband doesn't even want them. I just ordered the women's socks that read the same on the packaging. They are still the soft loose comfortable socks we expected here. These have always been soft, these are not. They should be comfortable at the toes, but aren't. They should be stretchy. These haven't got a lot of give. Also, they were hugely long in the foot, my fault, I ordered too big so , bigger in size I would expect. But, these are odd. Maybe they were all put in the wrong packaging. My husband wouldn't take them from me. Not comfortable.

Dr. School's Really?
Doubting if these were really Dr. School's. They were too small and Dr. School's is not printed on the socks, nor is the printing inside the top. Worthless. Guess we will give them away.

ankles are too tight for diabetic socks
If you are buying diabetic socks for the purpose of less restrictive ankles, this sock is not for you. The material is high quality with non-rubbing toe seams and smooth finish, but the ankle fit is very tight. I do not have large or swollen ankles, but these cut off my circulation and leave deep impressions.

Not Bad But Not What I Expected
These socks are a little more snug than I expected. If you have large calves or ankles this may not be the sock for you. Dr Scholl's makes a different sock that I have purchased that are a little more forgiving. Not a bad sock and they seem like they will hold up well but if you use diabetic socks for the comfort because you are on your feet all day, you may want to look for the other model that seems to be made with softer elastic.

Well made socks.
I found these too tight and too resistant to stretch. I wear a size 12 shoe and normally wear what socks are available which are 9 to 12 with low resistance to stretch. Because these are listed as 13 to 16, I thought these would give my toes a little less pressure meaning less resistance to stretch because they would presumably be longer from heel to toe but laying them out beside my 9 to 12 socks there is virtually no difference and they have a high resistance to stretch which really aggravated my big toes more than my smaller socks. They also were very tight in the ankle area, which is something I have never encountered in the big box store off the shelf 9 to 12 sizes. So, I cannot comfortably wear these socks.

Not a good diabetes socks for me
I purchased so many different brands diabetes socks so far and this one was non-comfy for me. I do not have any skin allergy and the kind of thread of this sock created itching on my feet. As soon as I noticed that this socks created itching, I wore other brand's diabetes sock and itching has gone. I purchased many Dr. Scholl's products for the last twenty years with absolute trust, and enjoyed with them, I will still continue to purchase Dr. Scholl's products, but not the socks.

These socks are dangerous! Size is big
If you have laminate or tile, watch out! These socks are EXTREMELY slippery. Especially if the floor is a little wet or you have a bit of sweat in your socks, which happens more with these since they are somewhat thick. The padding is nice, but I found these to fit on the bigger side. I would recommend these for those with a 15+ shoe size. I am a 14, and found the fit to be a bit loose. It didn’t get tighter with a wash and dry, and didn’t get less slippery either (I don’t use fabric softener). Overall, the comfort isn’t the best and I would recommend MediPeds over these. But if you have trouble finding socks that fit and you’re a 15+, these might be for you. Just watch out on slick floors! I’ve slipped a few times and fallen once.

Good for light usage. GREAT for airplanes and long periods of time sitting.
I purchased these for my flights. My normal socks constrict the area between my ankles and lower leg, which makes them unsuitable for long flights. These socks are perfect, and do not give me that problem. (However, I hear that other people benefit from tighter socks which get the blood flowing?).My shoe size is 8.5 to 9, so barely on the lower end of the product's advised range. The shoes are slightly too large for me, but should fit someone of shoe size ~10 pretty well, I guess.I wore these on day trips during my travels as well. They're quite comfortable and I have had no issues so far. The fabric is very loose and not dense at all, so I suspect the lifespan of these socks is lower and they would produce holes more quickly. If you're walking a lot, you may have to get other socks...
