MediPeds Sorbtek dress crew socks with cushion

The thinnest sock in this catalogue and the only one cut as a dress crew. Sorbtek polyester, which moves damp through the sock instead of holding it against the foot, with a light cushion under the sole and a relaxed leg rather than a gripping cuff. Black, four pairs, men 7-12 with women 10-13.

Buy it for a shoe that is already full. A work shoe or a smart lace-up with no room to spare will feel half a size smaller with a padded crew inside it, and this is the pair that solves that without dropping to a liner. It is not a non-binding sock in the sense the crew and quarter shelves mean it: the leg is relaxed and stretchy, but the yarn is the point here rather than the cuff.

One of 5 on the cushioned and cooling socks shelf in the MediPeds range. It also answers to crew socks, coolmax and sorbtek socks, black socks. If you want to know how often the figures on this page are refreshed, that is set out on how we update the catalogue.

Nothing on this site is medical advice. A sock is a sock: a non-binding top and a smooth toe seam are ways of knitting a cuff and a seam, not a treatment, and nothing here diagnoses, prevents or relieves anything. If your feet have lost feeling, if a sore is not healing, or if a doctor has asked you to wear a fitted compression stocking, that conversation belongs with them and not with a catalogue.
