These are the best socks I have ever worn. Got rid of all my cotton socks. These socks are a game changer with the neuropathy in my toes/feet. I was feeling every ridge in my cotton socks. The men's cadence Micro (i am a women with a size 12 foot) so I chose the men's is like a pillow under my feet. I could not be happier. I purchased 6 of the natural and 6 of the black colour. You won't be disappointed.
