I buy these flex top socks every year for my dad as he doesn’t like anything tight around his calves. These are the only ones he has found that stay up but don’t feel tight at the same time.

Just right for my husband who has swollen feet, they are good because they do not make marks on his ankles.

I bought soft grip socks from Matalan a couple of years ago and they were great. When I saw they were now bamboo I was delighted as bamboo is soft and comfortable. However the new socks are poor. Very thin, very short and already wearing through in the toe area, and yes I have well manicured toe nails. Such a shame as soft grip tops do not leave a mark on the skin. Pull your socks up Matalan! More length and strength please!

Very difficult to find loose fitting socks these are a great find

Stretchy top socks are thinner than expected and the edge of the top hems soon start to fray/get loose threads
