are these over the calf socks?

Depending on the size of your calves. They went up mid calf height on my mother. And they go 3/4 calf height on me! They are wonderfully gentle and THEY DO NOT BIND THE LEG. We love them.

For me the socks were not over the calf. I found them to run small in size and I gave them away. I went to the local BIG store and bought some diabetic socks.

They are indeed tight, and narrow, but not over the calf. They are lower than that.

These socks are basically regular, stretchy socks with the cuff ending up slightly above the ankle. They are NOT as plush as women's spa socks. Hope this helps.

Hmm? I'm not sure. My calf is 15 my shoe is 12. But i don't know what size sock i bought. If you are using them for running I would go a little big. They are pretty tight. I do love them. good luck

I have them just below the calf. That's only about where they go unless you force them to go up higher.

Yes you can, but keep in mind that they only come up to mid calf. If you are looking for a pair that comes up to knee, you'll need to get a size larger. Good Luck

They are not tight by any means, nor do they ride down into my shoes.They are very comfortable. However, I would guess that if most socks are tight for you, these will be as well.

I would say no. I am on my feet all day and I wear support stockings with a short pair of crew socks over them and that solves the problem. By the way, when I bought Miracle socks on amazon, they were not near as tall on the calf as the ones I got from Walmart. I don't know why that is, but they were and I couldn't use them.

No, they go mid-way up the calf on me (size 9 feet). They do stay up during the day and are comfortable all day. The only issue I have is that they are too wide in the foot and the fabric gathers right above the top of a dress shoe.

no. MY wife uses them as compression socks for calf and ankle swelling. They work fine.

They seem to fit snug and firm all the way up there doesn't seem to be any elastic at the top. I have large calfs and they do not bind or fall down. They are wonderful and warm.

Not really. My husband wears these over his compression socks and actually wears two pairs so that they stay up. They are a good buy for the $$. They are not too tight at the top which has always been a problem for him.

I suppose it depends on the size of your calves but they are true knee socks on me.

I also tossed the wrapping but I would say the foot part of the socks are light weight 100% cotton -the calf part is cotton/nylon and stretches without leaving "marks". There is elastic 1/2 inch at top of sock to hold them up. My husband wears these socks with work boots every day with no complaints about the lightweight cotton. I wear the ankle socks and like the light weight cotton material. My feet swell and the only mark I get is right where that elastic holds the sock up. I highly recommend both types of the socks.Hope this helps.

ly to Louis's question, my husband says these socks are not compression socks. Rather they are extremely comfortable and feather light. Teri V.

Yes there is an elastic cuff on the inner portion of the pant. The outer portion is wide and would fit over a boot.
