Me in bed happy with my AFO socks
Well it so happened that 4 pairs of my SmartKnitBIGKIDs socks I got from Nancy were plagued with some sort of defect that caused them to start getting holes over time. Especially with me being a heavy user, meaning I wear mine ALL the time. I don’t wear shoes over them. But thankfully I don’t go outside with them, when I am outside I am in my wheelchair as obviously in the house I crawl around. Anywho around January I noticed some of my socks started getting holes and well finally March came around and I was like alright 4 pairs down this is insane, so I contacted the company and they are happily sending me replacements, but then I looked into their AFO / KAFO socks Ankle Foot Orthosis / Knee Ankle Foot Orthosis socks and I was like I WANT THOSE! Longer and more awesome! So they are giving me two pairs of AFO socks which I received and they made a mistake in the ordering / shipping process as the KAFO socks are shipped EACH not in pairs and they only sent me one KAFO sock, so they are sending out 3 more to fix the error. I am so happy! The AFO socks are awesome and I at least got to try on one of the KAFO socks which is absolutely awesome! It comes up to my upper thigh which is great for when I feel cold or just crave pressure / comfort on my legs! I look forward to getting the rest of my KAFO socks!

I go barefoot around the house myself. I don’t like having anything on my feet.
Bleah, I don’t like Facebook. They’re way too careless with their users’ personal info. I show I like your blog by commenting on it.

Lol, I wasn’t worried about subscribing.
I just get annoyed at how Facebook seems to be trying to take over the web.

So what exactly is so special about those socks? They look like normal socks, but they are for wearing with orthotics so are they extra fitted without leaving marks and pressure points? Im just curious. Congrats on the new socks !!!

1. no seams anywhere 2. they are tighter fitting
they are specifically designed for sensory sensitivity. see smartknitkids.com/ for more info on them.
