"WIDE OPEN socks are great quality and fit perfectly even after washing! I purchased other socks for years that were supposed to be XL and after one washing they were tight. The selection of colors and patterns for the WIDE OPEN brand is extensive. They are well worth the price!"
"I lived in Maine for over 15 years and tried many different socks sure wish I had them walking all those trails. Have since moved back home but still perfect for my life style."
"I really wanted to like these - the toe space is definitely generous and lives up to the advertised quality. The upper part of the socks however, is very tight on my legs. I have large calves, and can’t wear most generally available socks. I wear diabetic socks, which are very generous in their stretch. Wide open socks do not have that give. They left deep marks on my legs, and eventually just rolled down to my ankles. I am not able to comfortably wear these socks."
"Perfect fit and thickness love wide open socks I'm a customer for life !!"
"I'll never buy another brand of socks and I'll never have to worry about fighting socks on my feet again!"
"I wear 16. I was happy to see these. Fit well and love the feel"
"Socks look and feel great; I've been the sock has been upgraded to make it more durable. I hope so as my previous Wide Opens wore through in the ball of my foot much quicker than anticipated. I am grateful for the Wide Open guarantee!"
"The Wide Open socks are the most comfortable socks I have found, and the most durable. However, I wear socks all day everyday so after a couple months I still develop holes. That’s where their warranty and great customer service shines. Be aware though that if you return your socks under warranty, you are still on the hook for return shipping. I recently found slippers that greatly reduce the amount of wear that results in holes so I’m happy about that."
"despite being larger than my size, they get a bit better after washing and I enjoy wearing them. They are very comfortable. I prefer the patterned ones to solid colors, they fit better and feel somhow right to the size. I advise everyone to give it a try and judge for themselves. Customer service is unbleivalby good and their courtesy and professionalism is exceptional. A good company!"
"I was a Darn Tough customer and have developed peripheral neuropathy in my feet. I was hoping these sock would help. Alas,they didn’t. Not the socks fault…just my age catching up with me."
