ISO the perfect sock. Does it exist?

I have small feet and big calves. My socks are all so uncomfortable. too tight on the foot, to tight on the calf, to much elastic, too little elastic . . . Smile

I am looking for socks (knee-hi) that are
- comfortable
- preferably mostly cotton
- affordable!
- best would be to buy online

Thanks!

I love Condor socks. They are the only knee sock I have ever tried that stayed up. They're soft, and comfortable, and... whatever. I'm not in sales.

Here is a link I found - don't know if this is the best price around, but it's the first link I found for them:

you can wear leggings and ankle socks. that worked for me.

the condor socks are a good choice, but the fabric is not that breathable and it leaves lint. on the plus side, they look nice and was beautifully. I have since then tried hue modal blend socks. haven't washed them enough to really test out their staying power but so far so good (at least 3 washes).

im looking for kids knee socks in colors, red purple, yellow... no store in bp sells them. does anyone know where I can find them?

I like Calvin Klien or Tommy Hilfiger socks. Century has a nice selection of socks that you are looking for.

tx. will try there.

Thank you everyone!

The truth is that flower power is probably right. My husband gets Tommy Hilfiger and CK socks at Century 21, and they are super comfortable. But wearing them is not a good long term plan Smile

My problem is that I am not in the US. I can order online, or get someone to pick up for me in a Jewish store. Any ideas for the century 21 socks online?
