Product Information
Full details
Gentle Grip non-elastic socks are designed for adults seeking superior comfort, particularly those sensitive to tight elastics or circulation restrictions in the lower leg. These socks feature a unique honeycomb top that gently conforms to the leg without digging in, providing a secure yet pressure-free fit suitable for everyday wear. While they offer excellent relief from constriction, users should note that the non-binding design may result in the socks feeling looser on the calf compared to traditional, high-tension ribbed athletic socks.

FAQs
Are these socks suitable for diabetics?
Yes, their non-binding, non-elastic nature is designed to be gentle on the skin, which is often recommended for individuals who need to avoid constriction.
Will they leave marks on my legs?
The honeycomb top is specifically engineered to minimize pressure, so you should experience significantly fewer or no marks compared to standard socks.
Are they made of 100% cotton?
They feature a high-quality cotton blend to ensure both comfort and the necessary structural integrity for the honeycomb design.
Can I machine wash these?
Yes, we recommend machine washing at a low temperature to preserve the elasticity and soft texture of the fabric.
Are these socks unisex?
Yes, the design is suitable for both men and women, provided you select the correct size for your foot.
Troubleshooting
Socks slide down during movement.
Ensure the socks are pulled up fully and that the size matches your shoe size; if the socks are too large, they may lack the necessary grip to stay up.
Material feels slightly thin.
The socks are designed for comfort and breathability; if you require more thickness for warmth, consider pairing them with shoes that provide appropriate insulation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the non-elastic properties, wash these socks in a cool cycle (30-40 degrees Celsius) with like colors. Avoid bleaching or high-heat tumble drying, as excessive heat can break down the fibers that maintain the honeycomb structure. For the best fit, ensure you select the appropriate UK shoe size equivalent to your measurements. If you are between sizes, opt for the slightly larger size to ensure the honeycomb top remains loose and non-constricting on the calf.
