For as long as I can remember, I have loved cotton next to my skin – whether in sheets, underwear, towels, t-shirts, skirts, trousers or socks.
For years I wore men’s athletic tube socks because they were so much more comfortable than the women’s socks I could find – which always seemed to have too much synthetic in them to be fully breathable.
The one exception were some Nike women’s ankle socks that I bought so long ago that the pile has worn off of the heel and ball of the foot.
But lately I’ve been finding the cuff part of the men’s athletic socks feeling uncomfortably tight.
So I was absolutely delighted to find these SimCan socks. I have tried both the white ankle socks and the black 98% cotton mid-calf ones, and I’ve been very happy with both.
I got my pairs here in Toronto at BioPed (they sell orthotics and other foot- and leg-related products as well).
And, when I was looking for a picture to post in this blog, I also found the SimCan website.
