Ideal solution for cropped trousers

Yes, I recommend this

I wanted knee length socks but found that some I have purchased in the past with padded feet become very difficult to pull on. so I tried these. I don't actually want them over the knee but found that folding over at the top works well since the elastic is good quality and stays in place. soft stretchy and comfortable.

Excellent quality and comfort

Excellent fit, soft and stay up. My child has “school sock seam issues” and these have stopped all morning crisis and a happier morning routine.

Disappointing

No, I don't recommend this

They are big on the foot and I have to keep pulling them up. I'm disappointed with M&S. I never have problems with anything. I bought others at a big high street shop, at a fraction of the price, and have no problems with them staying up

Perfect length but please remove the biocides!!

No, I don't recommend this

Perfect length to use as an alternative to tights, my daughter prefers to wear these on PE days as they are easier to put on. However, I really hate that these contain biocides. This wasn’t clear from the online description but is written on the packaging.

Reciprocate loves them - it's very rare to find socks that go over the knee nowadays, and these do just the thing!

Great tights alternative.

Wasn’t convinced these would stay up, but they do. One daughter finds them more comfortable than tights and loves these.

Warm and Comfortable

Yes, I recommend this

Love these .... Keep my legs and feet beautifully warm but look like tights (which I hate wearing) under longer skirts. Wash well. And what else do I like? Natural fabric so no smelly feet lol!

Ok but thin material

No, I don't recommend this

They are a bit thin for the price nothing special not usual M&S quality. If you want warm socks for winter look elsewhere.

Good value and wash well

I bought these over the knee childrens' socks for my elderly Mum who has balance and mobility issues. They are great for keeping her feet, knees and lower legs warm but the tops are a bit tight. Please could you make them for adults with softer tops and in a beige colour? Then I will award 5 stars!
