I am having a hard time finding socks that don't leave impressions on my son's ankles. The elastics are all too tight. I can't get his foot into a Robeez, so that doesn't help me. Any suggestions for socks that stay on, but don't hurt? He doesn't try to take them off, which should help.

Thanks!

Have you tried the Hanna Andersson "First Socks"? I find them to be shaped like a baby's leg...they come in a bit at the ankle then out again toward the top. Very cute.

Warning, though, they are very thick.

You might also call Hanna CS and see if they'd recommend any others. I just got some of the No Skid socks in size 2-4 and they seem very wide on my DD compared to the Swedish Ribbies.

Best,
Mary

all 4 of my kids have been fat-footed lol. We have good luck with Baby Gap and Children's Place socks

for soft soled shoes, you could look into BabyShoos/Shooshoos too....they fit chubby feet pretty well
