Long socks that constrict and kill your legs

[MJinZ]

What do you guys do about this problem?

It seems whatever socks I get these days, whether they are casual, semi-casual or more formal crew/dress socks, they end up cutting off the blood on my calves.

WTF?? Damn you chicken legged men of the world.

Is washing them first going to help?

Maybe you have a circulation problem. Consult your physician immediately.

Try stretching them on some fence posts before you try them on your legs.

buy ankle socks, larger socks, just don't pull them up. Remember, sockman was never cool

Larger socks? They come in one size really.

You must wear long socks in any sort of slacks/suit situation.

This is why I hate long socks.

no most dress socks come in a variety of sizes as a sock for someone with a size 10 foot wont fit someone with a size 15, the larger ones are generally wider as well, You can also go to a big & tall store and get fat people socks to accomplish the same thing.

I do agree with you that most dress socks are way to tight. However luckily for me i never have to wear them

At least the cotton panels let my balls breathe.

Cutting out gluten greatly improved the circulation in my feet. I'm not kidding.

Well I wear 9-10 for shoe sizes, but I have pretty awesome calves too. Perhaps I will try out the Big and Tall stores.

Clearly this must be so, for if the hater doth not hate, he shall no longer be counted a hater.

I have a similar problem, I just stretch out the opening a lot before putting them on.
