Wearing the right sock is important if you have diabetes, vascular disorders or circulatory problems. The Cotton Comfort Sock is specially formulated to protect vulnerable feet against irritation, chafing or pressure which can cause sores and ulcers. Soft and exceptionally comfy, it\'s made from the finest combed Cotton to keep feet dry and help prevent skin infections. The ribbed construction holds it gently in place without the need for elastic while the LYCRA® gives it some stretch for an unsurpassed fit. It also has a smooth join at the toe that won\'t rub or irritate sensitive feet and toes.
