Inordinately Right
I tried stretching the hole manually but the socks are of good quality and my efforts availed me no results.

Anyway the tube is about 4 and 1/2 inches in diameter
and I came back two days later when they were definitely dry and then put them on for another work day.

Success! I stretched them out permanently and my feetsies are no longer tired from pinched circulation.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
I had brand new 6 pack at start of summer. I'm down to 2 and a half pair. No idea where they go. I ask the wife ,who goes the laundry, she just gets mad and tells me she doesn't know.
You're telling me man.



I was bitching about socks. Few weeks back. Says she doesn't know. All of the laundry is done. 3 days later my sock drawer is magically full. I'm all like.

I’m full of it
My socks have so many holes in them I have to wear a smaller white sock under them.Just don't feel like dishing out $37.00 more dollars for a 6 pack.

Compression stockings are designed to be tightest at the ankles and get more elastic as they go higher . So the analogy doesn't quite apply here.
No sock is cutting of your circulation and making your feet tired (whatever that means) unless your feet look like a cows udder.

Yes!!, another thread about UPS socks.

The current regime I am under has decided to enforce the rule about wearing them when wearing shorts. So knowing where and when to pick my battles, I have been complying.

However I quickly noticed how tight they were around the ankles or calves. (depending on which ones you wear) and how tired my feet were after my day of work.

I tried stretching the hole manually but the socks are of good quality and my efforts availed me no results.

I then decided to do something else. After washing them , instead of putting them in the dryer, I "put them on" a circular tube that just happened to be holding clorox wipes(no importance regarding what was in the tube).

Anyway the tube is about 4 and 1/2 inches in diameter and I came back two days later when they were definitely dry and then put them on for another work day.

I post this tale for those who suffer from the same situation and offer a possible solution.
So they resemble 80's leg warmers now?

I wear the stupid brown ones to PCM. Take them off at my first stop everyday. Have two pairs for the past four years.
