Knee highs or footies

Don't know why but this made me laugh - possibly visualising these naughty footies creeping up your leg or exposing white leg

Personally I wear socks in winter and nothing in summer - on my feet that is.

Sel ditto, I buy decent quality thin socks to wear - knee highs etc cut into my legs right where I have a few nasty veins so its not a good idea to wear them. Once the sun is out !!!! its sandals and I treat myself to a proper pedicure complete with madly gay varnish!

I often see adverts for socks with non-elastic tops, which are better for people with diabetes. But they nearly always specify that they are for men! Why? Last time I looked, babies' feet were not distinguishable according to gender. Women have diabetes too.

Daisy, yes they are made for women - I tried them but they tend to go a bit droopy around the ankles and if worn with smart trousers look a bit shabby.

I'm with Sel and HildaW, its socks in the Winter and nothing in the Summer , can't bear the feel of tights type material on my legs.
I had to smile when I read too..

I wear a lot of black trousers so I buy black ankle socks that don't fold over.They aren't tight on my ankles or move around.When you cross your legs you might show some skin.

I wear black tights but they don't last long. My toes go through them or after they've been washed they just go into holes. I think they must be deliberately made not to last.

Strangely, my toes don't go through socks but they do through slippers...

Me too for socks in winter and nothing in summer - with a bit of knee high fake tan!

Goodness, hope you don't have an accident and have to be rushed to hospital, Ariadne!

Ana have you been spending too much time with Pete? Stumbling home maybe in your slippers?

Ariadne me too on the knee high fake tan plus a touch round the, ahem, décolletage

Perish the thought, Sel! I wouldn't be seen dead outside the house in my slippers...

Must admit that I'm selective with the fake tan.......well if no one sees it.......[

ana are they tartan sand have they got pom poms

I wear knee-highs or socks most of the time with trousers-bare feet in summer -I don't have your problem but I do have a regular pedicure and keep toe-nails well- trimmed.

Knee-highs with "dressy" trousers, socks with jeans in the winter. I have found Sainsbury's light support knee highs seem to last quite well, only
poke my toe through when I have "tended" to the nails!!

that should be when I haven't tended to the nails!! - my fingers are dyslexic today.
