Well the product description doesn't say and I have since given mine away. I'd guess nylon or a nylon/lycra mixture. Very very snug fitting (hard for me to get on and off) but should work for a slimmer calve.

Cotton. They shrunk a little after I washed them. They still fit the full mattress but it's tough getting them on and they don't "hug" the corners.

What a good question! I searched the bag the socks come in--no luck. They feel like they are made out of cotton or cotton blend.

I also tossed the wrapping but I would say the foot part of the socks are light weight 100% cotton -the calf part is cotton/nylon and stretches without leaving "marks". There is elastic 1/2 inch at top of sock to hold them up. My husband wears these socks with work boots every day with no complaints about the lightweight cotton. I wear the ankle socks and like the light weight cotton material. My feet swell and the only mark I get is right where that elastic holds the sock up. I highly recommend both types of the socks.Hope this helps.

It feels like a nylon cotton blend but I am not sure . It has to have something like silicon in it I would think .

You probably could make socks, but bear in mind that the material is a bit abrasive and also won't take much in the way of movement before tearing.

The tag indicates it is made of 60% polyester 20% nylon and 20% metallic lurex. It also indicates that they were made in Taiwan R.O.C. FYI: I have sensitive skin but these have not caused any reactions for me yet. Also, they are meant to be worn underneath other gloves or socks to create the warmth so they are thin. I have only used the socks and they work really well, without making my feet to hot, and I haven't had a hole yet.

I think they are a polyester blend. Very stretchy, not too thin like some of the ones you find at kmart etc.

Polyester material. They work awesome for crossfit and running. I have four pair :)

Hi!It's hard to compare these with socks woolen socks, because unfortunately I did not have warm woolen socks :-(But I can tell you that they have enough heat at a temperature of -20 degrees Celsius in heavy leather shoes with steel toes, which have the property very good "absorb" cold.

I have never heard that about cotton. I always thought cotton was a comfortable, breathable fiber. I can't offer any scientific proof other than my husband prefers these socks to all his others. They are comfortable, don't dig into the skin, are easy to put on, and seem to wash and wear well. Also, my family doctor recommended white, cotton socks. He said they were the healthiest for the skin. I bought both white and black as sometimes white socks aren't right with dress clothes. I would buy them again.

They stretch out more than regular socks, but I don't know what kind of material it is. I'm not diabetic, but just like loose socks, so they worked great for me. I ordered 5 pairs, but could use some more because I don't like to wear my other ones.

80% Cotton - 20% Nylon Great for the Price, just not as comfortable as my MediPeds.

I've seen them made out of a canvas type material, and nylon and cotton blend..

Found the Jobst boxes. Have two types. I am a woman but wore Men's medium 20-30 compression knee high socks in black before my ablations. They are 73% nylon, 27% Elasthan/spandex. They wear well and have comfortable feet for my large feet. Also have woman's large, thigh high, 15 - 20 compression in natural which is not enough compression for me. Fit well and are 66% Nylon, 19% Elastan/Spandex and 15% Silicone. (The silicone sometimes makes red itchy spots on my legs.) Sorry I did not find the boxes when you first asked.

I think just plain microfiber. They look like the same material as my bumgenius ones.
