Extra wide socks (self.buyeuropean)
submitted 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) by Liljekonvalj to c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk
 

Hello ๐Ÿ˜Š I'm a chonky girl with some fat cankles, looking for some really wide socks. Anybody got any tips? I've searched far and wide, but I can't find anything cheap made in Europe. Call me crazy but I don't want to pay 40 euros for 3 wide socks ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Unfortunately the last bulk I bought was from Amazon a year ago but I just checked and Otto has them too. Although don't expect them to be "original" Bundeswehr socks, I have no idea if they have ever been purchased by the German army, and searching for "German army socks" gives you tons of different results. Anyway I found these are very durable, comfortable and dirt cheap, so can recommend them. :)
