no-timeline-breaking mode: Buster Brown 100% cotton socks. they lack elastic and the mental relief I get from not having my ankle nerves ping my brain all day with "SLIGHT PRESSURE! HEY! HEY!!! JUST A REMINDER THAT YOU'RE WEARING SOOOOOOOCKS" is emancipating.
timeline breaking mode: detailed instructions on getting rich with crypto, majoring in computer science instead of biochem, and oh by the way you're clinically depressed, gay, and a communist just do your best to fast-track self acceptance GOOD LUCK LOL
Ever checked out diabetes socks? They're incredibly soft with no elastane as well. Seem to be a lot cheaper than the ones in your post.
You know what I always saw them in "related products" banners and assumed they'd be the opposite of what I wanted (compression socks) but I'll have to give them a search. Cheaper would certainly be nicer haha
No, people with diabetes can't wear compression socks. It might be worth checking out
Seems you're right, I had it backwards
