Socks that don't leave marks?

Do such things exist? Admittedly, I am a little overweight so will always have some sort of mark round my legs when I wear socks, but I'm getting fed up of unsightly marks every day. Does anyone know of a place I can get decent socks that don't look like they're trying to merge with my flesh?

I am wearing the correct size by the way, so just getting bigger ones will just cause different issues.

Search for "gentle grip" socks.

Diabetic socks from amazon have soft tops?

Matalan do gentle grip socks, £5 for 3 pairs in loads of designs, or try cosyfeet for roomy socks if you are swollen of ankle.

Interested in this thread?

Great, thank you! Had never heard of gentle grip socks, will now check Amazon, Matalan and cosyfeet.

Got my Mum some christmas socks from Yours and apparently they don't grip as tightly round the ankle so could be worth a go.

Sock Shop online sell gentle grip socks, look for ones marked as either diabetic or with honeycomb style cuffs.

Haha as my name suggests I can't resist buying socks 🤪
