I rely on diabetic socks. Very comfortable, no restrictions like regular socks. Orthofeet.com is my go to source for footwear.

It is HARD to find socks that are not to tight. Most stores only sell one size, and even when you can find the extra large, they are mostly LONGER, not wider. It gets worse if you use a drier on most socks. My wife air dries mine for that reason.

President Trump could afford silk socks. Those would be more forgiving.

Actually he needs tighter socks all the way to the top of his calves, like I have.

Keeps the swelling down and are more comfortable than regular stockings.

Mine started about his age and now I’m good at 85.
