SockShopLadies Gentle Bamboo Socks with Smooth Toe Seams in Plain and Striped Designs Pack of 3

I’m so happy with my socks and I wasn’t sure before I bought them because I had some lovely soft bamboo socks before and haven’t found any I’ve been happy with since! They’re gorgeous colours, the fabric itself is very light and very comfortable but still warm enough for me, with loose fitting tops to the socks but they don’t fall down and just sit comfortably around your lower calves. They cover your ankles completely, so they are long enough but are still short socks. They do have a seam along the toes but it isn’t at all uncomfortable, it’s very skinny and doesn’t get in the way of your toes, which I’ve experienced in some others I’ve tried before.I’m about to buy some more as they do a variety of colours! So I highly recommend them. Enjoy!

These are really nice socks, and feel really good quality. At first, I thought they weren't gentle grip at all, because they have the normal, narrow strip of elastic at the top, but after having worn them, I would say they are far gentler than normal socks, but not fully gentle grip. My legs swell up, so I need socks that don't leave deep ridges in my legs - these do leave a slight ridge, but are comfortable to wear and stay up well while being comfortable. The toe seam is also very smooth and barely noticeable. I like bamboo socks, as the material is nice and smooth, and washes and wears well. I think the antibacterial thing might be a bit of a gimmick, as once processed, I've read bamboo looses its antibacterial properties, but it's a greener option than cotton, so I also prefer bamboo for that reason. However, while these are very nice socks, at £3 per pair, they're £1 more per pair than other bamboo socks I bought that were of comparable quality, and those also had a more comfortable top than these, so I personally prefer the other socks to these. But if you're more worried about them staying up (both stay up well for me) while still having comfortable elastic, then these are probably the ones to go for.. They're made of 75% viskose (from bamboo), 22% polyester and 3% elastane, which is a slightly lower elastane content than most bamboo socks and wash at 40 degrees. I have to say that the material of these does feel extra-smooth, when compared to other bamboo socks, but for me, that's not really worth the extra £1 per pair that these cost (especially as the elastic at the top is less comfortable, as said above). The size is quite generous, I wouldn't actually say they're too large for my size 5 feet, but I have to make sure I don't stretch them out fully when putting them on, otherwise, the heel won't sit in the right place, but halfway up my leg. They come up to a standard height for ankle socks. Overall, am pleased with these, and would recommend them, depending on where your priorities lie. If it's the really smooth fabric and the very smooth toe seam, and you don't mind paying a bit extra for that, then these are the ones to go for, plus if you want socks that will definitely stay up, while still being gentler grip than most, then I would recommend these. If you want a really gentle grip, and would prefer to pay a bit less for good bamboo socks, there are better options, I would say.. I have attached photos: if they look grey or whitish, that's my lighting, they are deep black in colour.

These are wonderfully soft socks, toe seam is unnoticeable and ankle seams don’t pinch. I would by more if they were cheaper as unfortunately they are expensive.

Nice to find a pair of socks a) in navy, b) are not too tight & c) not overly large (I am a UK 5).

Soft and extremely comfortable. Size is just right. Love the colours but wish for more designes.

Really comfortable socks. I always buy this type and have not been disappointed.

These socks are comfortable to wear but have begun to get holes in the toes already

Very soft, and comfortable, stay in place without cutting off circulation. Ideal for legs that may swell.

Super weiche angenehme Socken, auch nach den ersten Waschgängen noch so flauschig wie bei Lieferung.Sockshop sind die Besten!

Des chaussettes super agréables qui ne serrent pas à la cheville, exactement ce que je voulais.

Schön weich, optischer Hingucker... Passform gut.

Chaussettes agréables à porter, bonne tenue et belles couleurs. J'ai des soucis de circulation sanguine et des soucis lymphatiques au niveau des pieds et je les porte facilement

Ces chaussettes sont ultra douce. Le pied respire et n'est pas comprimé. Si comme moi vous en avez marre d'être serré dans vos chaussettes, c'est le produit qu'il vous faut.
