- Are these socks good for plantar fasciitis or heel pain?
- They add cushioning under the heel and ball and moderate arch compression, which many owners with heel pain find helpful. They are not orthotic and won't correct foot mechanics.
- How thick are they compared with normal athletic socks?
- Noticeably thicker, with terry padding in the sole. Size up or loosen laces if your walking shoes fit closely.
- Will they fit in my walking shoes?
- Usually yes in regular-width walking shoes, but the padding takes up volume. People with narrow or tight shoes often need a half size up.
- How should I wash them?
- Machine wash warm with like colors and tumble dry low. Skip fabric softener, which coats the acrylic and reduces wicking.
- What sizes are available?
- They come in unisex sizing with US, UK and EU equivalents on the chart. Match your shoe size to the chart rather than guessing.
- Are they made in the USA?
- Yes, Thorlos makes these socks in the United States.
