happy toes!
I HAD to get these when I saw them, and lucky I did, since they made me try the Toe Toes and see how absolutely wonderful they are! I’ve raved about them before, but really, I can’t say enough! They’re SOOOOO comfy and breathable, seamless, and they really do seem to increase your circulation! Oh, and they FIT. I was worried that the anklet top would cut me off at the top of the foot like many other little bootie-type socks do on my large feet. They felt like they were doing it right at first, but after a minute or two they relaxed and felt fine all day!
Warning: possible gross-out alert. See, I happen to have recurring problems with my big toes…well, the toenails to be specific. They ingrow like you wouldn’t believe (due to, I believe, a combination of very curved toenails and shoes that are too narrow for my feet). Typically, and especially in socks whose feet portions are too snug, there is blood on the toe of the sock when I take my shoes off at the end of the day. Or even at the end of the five minute shoot. My big toe is swollen and infected, and after about 8 hours of my twelve-hour shift at work, I often get severe pain spreading all the way up to my ankle from the toe. Toesocks have seemed to help the problem a little, but not consistently enough to warrant the trouble of putting them on each day. That is, until I found these. The first day that I wore these, I not only felt a MUCH lesser pain, but I also came home to an unbloodied sock and a less-swollen toe. I was happily perplexed. I wore the toetoes again and got the same result. “Ah,” thought I, “it’s these wonderful socks!” :)
I recommend ANY of the Toe-Toes to those who love unbulky toesocks, those who have to be on their feet for long periods of time, or just those who want their feet to feel good. Nevermind that the bold rainbows on these guys make them nearly irresistable on looks alone! ;)
