I have plantar fasciitis, and my toes often start to go numb after walking for a half mile. As I like to walk for enjoyment and exercise, this has increasingly become more of a problem. While these socks don't rid me of the symptoms entirely, the do lessen the numbness. Combined with rolling the soles of my feet on lacrosse balls before beginning my walk or treadmill, they really seem to help. Looking forward to golfing in them.
