IWhat about those people who have swollen ankles? Are they wide enough in a large or extra large so they won't bind?

These socks are extra stretchy. I wear a size 9.5 shoe and bought the large sock. I have plenty of room to go. After standing on my feet for a 12 hour shift, my ankles have a tendency to swell, and I still have plenty of room in them!

They are not tight by any means, nor do they ride down into my shoes.They are very comfortable. However, I would guess that if most socks are tight for you, these will be as well.

They are pretty stretchy and still super soft so I think they'd be worth a try!

I would guess they would be wide enough as the fabric is quite stretchy. They are not a tight fitting sock.

I use sensi pink self adhere wrap around the ankles. It keeps them from twisting or falling off. Just be careful not to wrap it too tight. I buy the sensi wrap here on Amazon. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NHB4BY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

You really have to wrap them tight for them to stay where you want them and that can get uncomfortable. I mostly use mine on my ankles bun enjoy them none the less.

My ankle is kind of small - it fit pretty good. The velcro has a good hold. It didn't feel flimsy or anything. I don't know how big your ankle is but the ankle wrap itself is pretty big.

They will probably slip off your wrists with active exercise. Ankles would probably work better.

Hard to say, but I have a wide-ish foot and they are comfortable to me. Of course, thicker socks always helps. I saw that sloggers.com has free returns, and I also saw them at Walmart's website, maybe in stores, I don't know. Our local nursery and OSH carries them so I could try on in the store. Maybe you can do that somehow.

I bought them because my feet are much wider in front than in the heel. So, if I buy a shoe that fits the front of my foot, it is too big (wide) in the heel. I step out of pumps. These helped solve the problem for me. No my pumps fit perfectly! I don't think it would help much if the whole shoe was too wide, but if wide in the heel....they helped me! Hope that answer helps!

Honestly, I purchased one for my ankle. When my ankle swells, it gets a little snug and I sit down and rest. But, if I'm resting, it is so pain relieving and warm. Incredibrace has it's own website and you might want to go there (http://www.incrediwear.com). Their website says to measure two inches above the knee. I hope this helps. You probably can purchase for less at Amazon. Good luck if you decide to buy it. I love mine.

They are really like tube socks. I'm a woman with size 8 1/2 shoe size and they fit fine for me as far as feet go. My problem is really that my ankle and legs are very swollen so the top of the sock is too tight for me around and it goes only half way up my calf. So I had to snip the band at the top and roll them down. But that was a leg problem, not a foot issue. I hope this helps, it's all I've got. :)

Judy,I bought really small ones at a sport store, and because I have arthritis and my ankles swell twice there size I bought these and they have always been plenty long enough with strap left over. I think you will be satisfied with them. Florence

The wrap opens up and can be worn in either direction depending upon how much of your foot you want covered. I wear wide shoes and my broken ankle was horribly swollen. The wrap was completely adjustable with the velcro strap. I highly recommend it!

I take a size 11 (men's) shoe. So I always try to get an extra-large size in these slip resistant socks, at least. I've found that socks like these which may be issued to an in-hospital patient, have always been too small. The socks will stretch somewhat, but, I feel that it's better to have a large size that you don't have to stretch to make fit. The color doesn't matter to me.

Hi Andrea, If swelling of the ankles is a problem, you might want to give these a pass. The entire sock fits snugly. I don't find that the top is any tighter than the rest of the sock; the whole sock, however, is snug. My husband, found them a bit too close-fitting for his comfort. Hope this info is useful to you. If there are further questions, ask away.

On mine the straps were not long enough for anything larger than my ankle....but I am no midget, 6'4" 260lbs.

Yes, the strap on these is very long and I can actually fit them around my thighs so your ankles should be no problem at all.

Will fit men/women. Excessive weight or large ankles do not make this your best purchase as wear and tear break them over time.
