Over the calf, knee high or mid-calf?

Over the calf and knee high mean the same length: the sock passes the calf and ends just below the knee. Mid-calf, also called crew, ends halfway up the lower leg. For the shorter length, see diabetic crew socks.

Should people with diabetes wear over the calf socks?

It depends on your feet. The NIDDK advises people with diabetes not to wear tight socks, and a sock this long puts its band high on the leg, so the band has to be loose. If your feet have lost feeling, you have had a foot sore, or you have artery disease in your legs, ask your doctor or foot care team before you wear them. Our guide, can diabetics wear knee high socks, covers who they suit.

Questions and answers

Are over the calf socks the same as knee high socks?

Yes. Both names mean a sock that passes the calf and ends just below the knee. We list ours as Knee High.

Do over the calf socks stay up?

Yes. The top band is knit wide and loose, so it holds the sock up without a tight elastic ring. Pick your size from the sock size chart, because a sock that is too big can slide.

Do they come in black and white?

Yes. Black and White are sold as single pairs and as All Black or All White packs of 3, 6 and 12.

Do these socks squeeze your legs?

No. Mi Socks are not compression socks. They are made not to squeeze. If your doctor has prescribed compression stockings, keep wearing those.

Do 2 pairs ship free?

US shipping is free on orders of $19 or more, so any 2 pairs or more ship free. Under $19, shipping is $4.95.
