Do these have a "binding" feel at the top of the sock?

These socks come right up to under my kneecap where it is more "bony" than when on the calf. There is just a very slight compression to keep the sock up and from rolling down. Have now bought several pairs as they are most comfortable around and don't bind and compress on the ankle or calf.

I think I understand what you mean, and they're probably pretty slippery, I used them only for running--they're made of synthetic fibers so they don't cause friction/blisters while running--but, I don't think these are the socks you want

Absolutely not! That is what is great about these as well. I find I have to push them down sometimes just because I pull them too high up. It doesn't matter where I "set" them...they stay. Even pairs I have had for a while that have been washed and slightly loosened. They stay put.

i would have to say yes, they might be as much as 1/8" thick. i have the same issue with my riding boots - they are already kind of snug and the socks make them hard to zip up but they are warm!

No the socks are what I'd describe as a thick nylon but are still comfy. Only thing to worry about is the cape. My capes are starting to unstring but it's a quick fix.

I think so. I've worn them for a few hours with no issue. My son wears them more often and never complains about the comfort.

I can be sure but they do feel glued with foam in side. From what I remember. I'm traveling and can't go give them another feel right now.

I believe you fins might be a little too small if they reach the opening, but I would have to say yes. The material of the sock is very thick to prevent this from happening.

No. I have been wearing this shoe for 20 years and I just bought a new pair and it feels exactly the same.

I haven't had that experience. They remain snug all day. I just bought another pair because I like the way they fit

I had not thought of them as compression socks, but in a way they are a light compression because the upper sock retains its hug on your calf nicely, unlike some discount socks that stretch out quickly so you have to tug them up your leg and back in place after a while. The foot portion is not as 'huggy', but it holds its shape and position on your foot nicely. They are very comfortable!

not that I've noticed. They are very comfortable and do not slip on my heel

They are somewhat gripping, but I haven't had any problems with them slipping. They do help with foot pain. I'm on my feet all day and suffer from plantar fasciitis and these do help.

Yes, they stretch, which eases taking them on/off. Still comfortable to wear.

Yes. They're elastic like a shower cap. They're small and wadded up, and will stretch to hug your foot.

They look like regular white sweat socks. They leave no marks on my legs but they are also not the loosest socks I've run across.

Yes, I use thigh high ones. It is important to pull the sock over frame until you get to the heel. The heel material is noticeable so you can see it and stop after it is pulled to top. I found if I put my foot into the sock at that time then I had enough toe room. The form cannot be pulled all the way up the leg but having help on the lower part of leg made all the difference in getting socks on.
