Das Dominikanerinnenkloster Töss erlebte im Spätmittelalter eine Blütezeit. Zwischen 1469 und 1491 liessen die Nonnen ein neues Klausurgebäude errichten und den Kreuzgang wenig später ausmalen. Auf 160 Metern Wandfläche entstand eine vielfigurige Bilderwelt mit Geschichten aus dem Alten und Neuen Testament. Der Gemäldezyklus war dominikanisch geprägt, spiegelte in seinem weit über die Ordensthematik hinausreichenden Bildprogramm aber die um 1500 in Töss lebende Frauengemeinschaft wider: Ein selbstbewusst auftretender Konvent von Schwestern aus traditionsreichen Familien, der sich mit der Ausschmückung des Kreuzgangs ein Denkmal setzte. In der Sprache der Bilder dokumentierte er sein religiöses Selbstverständnis und sein Verbundensein mit der Welt jenseits der Klostermauern. Die mit der Ausstattung betrauten, anonymen Maler schöpften aus dem Bilderfundus der Zeit: Buchillustrationen, Kupferstiche und Altartafeln führender, im süddeutschen Raum tätiger Meister boten ihnen einen reichen Bilderschatz. Die kunsthistorischen Bezüge des Tösser Zyklus weisen in die Künstlerwerkstätten von Colmar, Nürnberg und Zürich. Einzigartig war überdies die bemalte Sockelzone mit Wappen und Namen von Nonnen und ihren Verwandten. Sie vermittelt einen Einblick in die familiären Bindungen der Tösser Schwestern, aber auch in die spätmittelalterliche Familien- und Machtpolitik. Die Wandmalereien wurden im 19. Jahrhundert zerstört. Dank Nachzeichnungen von Zürcher und Winterthurer Künstlern sind sie uns jedoch überliefert.

Effective but may be uncomfortable
Color: Pink & Beige, Size: Medium/Large(fits size 8 to 11)
I have eczema on my feet and use a prescription cream that I leave on overnight. I often have a problem sleeping in socks but the silicone feels cool on my feet. The only drawback I have is the opening of the socks feel very tight around my ankles making them uncomfortable on me. I wish the opening was a bit more flexible.

Burned my already sensitive feet, too big
Color: Pink & Beige, Size: Medium/Large(fits size 8 to 11)
Feels icky, and the heat gets trapped and literally felt like my feet were being burned by these. The bottoms of these feel prickly and they are way too big. You have to sit still and cannot walk in them.

Just as good as paraffin wax
Color: Pink & Beige, Size: Medium/Large(fits size 8 to 11)
I might prefer these socks over paraffin wax. They are comfy and very moisturizing. I use these socks once a week to keep the heels and soles of my feet moisturized between pedicures. I rinse with warm, soapy water then hang to dry. They are hard to walk in, but there's a saying printed in the socks that's says something to the effect of "take a break, stay off your feet" lol I love that as a reminder to put my feet up and relax

Love these!
Color: Pink & Beige, Size: Small(fits up to size 7)
Love these! As I write this review, I’m sitting in my recliner with these on. I have had other silicone socks in the past and would like to share a few of the things that I have learned. These fit great! The others were 2-3 sizes too big because you could not order a size. I wear a size 7 women’s shoe. I got the smaller size. I walked around my apartment in my old ones and they got kinda yucky. Now, I sit in my recliner, put them on and chill for a few hours. I now take them off and put in a ziplock bag so they stay nice and clean (no cat hair!). I use them once a week usually on Saturday or Sunday as I’m a working girl. Also, I use Auqaphor before I put them on and put cotton socks on after I’m finished. Your feet will be SO soft. This is not a one and done…I do this every week especially during sandal season! I know this was lengthy and I hope you got some tips.

These socks are wonderful!
I was wanting toeless socks to wear at night when I sleep. I put moisturizer on my feet before I go to sleep and wanted socks to hold in the moisturizer. But, I cannot stand having a sock that covers my whole foot. So, I thought, gee, I wonder if they make socks that do not have toes? Well, I found some that have a gel pad, got those, and hated them. They felt awful and I couldn't sleep with them on. Finally, though, I came across these socks -- no gel pad, no toes. They are wonderful. They have enough hold to stay on my feet all night, but are very comfortable. In fact, when I get them on my feet, I forget they are even there. They are soft and well-made and have really cute colors/patterns. I understand that they are probably for exercise/yoga/pilates classes, but I find them perfect for my needs. I love them!
