Wide Socks Built for Real People
If you have wide feet, calves, and/or ankles that don’t fit standard sizing, you know the struggle. Socks dig in. They leave painful indentations by the end of the day. Or by sizing up they bunch up in your shoes. Our wide socks provide a better fit in all the right places.
We design for:
- Wide feet
- Wide ankles
- Athletic or fuller calves
- Anyone who’s tired of too-tight socks
You shouldn’t have to size up and hope for the best. You shouldn’t have to settle for socks that “almost” fit. You should have wide socks that deliver on style, durability, and stretch.
Our collection includes a range of heights, weights, colors, and style options, from everyday basics to fun patterns. Every pair is built around the same foundation:
- Wide Flex Stretch for extra stretch anywhere you need it
- Just-Right Cuff for all-day comfort
- Comfort Stitch Cushioning for added durability
- True-Seamless Toe for a smooth feel
- Merino Wool for year-round softness and breathability
That’s how we bring together comfort, fit, quality, and style in every pair of socks for wide feet and legs.
Why Wide Open Socks Are Built Differently
A lot of brands claim their socks “stretch,” but stretch alone is not enough. The wrong kind of stretch leads to socks that slide down or lose shape after a few washes. Wide Open socks aren't just made to stretch, they're also designed to provide structure and durability over time. Our signature Wide Flex Stretch offers a relaxed fit anywhere you need it while staying up and in place.
Wide Open socks are knit with the high-quality materials to ensure they last. If, over time, they wear out or spring a hole, we'll replace them free of charge with our Lifetime Guarantee.
Are wide socks the same as compression socks?
No. Wide socks are designed for comfort and a roomier fit, while compression socks are made to apply controlled pressure to the legs. Wide socks should feel relaxed and supportive, not tight.
Do wide socks slide down?
Quality wide socks should stay up without digging in. Wide Open Socks are built with a secure fit that prevents slipping while still allowing stretch and flexibility.
Should I size up if I have wide feet?
Your shoe size is the best guide for choosing your Wide Open sock size. Sizing up often makes socks too long which can lead to bunching in your shoes. While you might be used to sizing up, if you're at the upper end of a size range, we recommend sticking with your true size.
Are wide socks helpful for swollen feet and ankles?
Wide socks can be a great option for people who experience swelling throughout the day because they reduce tight pressure around the ankle and calf.
