EASY DON AND DOFF SOCK

Abstract:

Aspects herein are directed to a sock having an integrally knit tab positioned between a collar of the sock and a heel of the sock, where the collar defines an opening for a wearer's foot. The base of the tab is integrally knit with a reciprocally knit section to reinforce the structural integrity of the tab, which may be used to assist the wearer in donning and/or doffing the sock by acting as the primary structure by which the wearer pulls the sock around the wearer's foot when donning the sock.
