Diabetics suffer from poor circulation and foot ulcers. Diabetic socks are made from hi-tech fibers that wick the moisture away from the foot, reducing the chance of infection by eliminating bacteria. These socks have to be loose at the top and smooth all the way to the toe to prevent chafing and blistering. If there are open sores, the socks should be white to prevent dyes from getting into the wound.
Amazing Socks offers numerous diabetic socks made by top brands like Thorlo, American Essentials, WrightSock, Rite Fit and Railroad King. There are now three styles available including over the calf, crew and ankle socks. Thermal crew styles are warm and great for winter weather.
X Socks makes space-aged diabetic socks with an anatomically shaped foot bed, a heel protector and toe guard. There are air channels and a self-adjusting cuff, making it the most scientific sock available.
The World's Softest Socks boast an extra roomy top and 40 percent more cross-stretch than regular socks, making it easy to slip them on. They're supremely soft and comfy. Wearing these socks is the closest thing to walking on clouds.
