Allergic to latex and looking for socks

I am allergic to latex and I am looking for latex-free socks. I have to wear boots do to a foot issue and cannot wear ankle socks, so cottonique is not option. Does anyone know where I can get latex free crew socks? Also does anyone know of a brand of jeans that does not use spandex and are not hip huggers, I just want a pair of regular blue jeans.

Hello,
Not sure if I can help in finding latex free products. But if the allergy is troublesome, you could try desensitizing yourself, with the help of an allergy specialist. Warm regards.

Thanks, but I have an excellent allergist immunologist and she has never mentioned this with any of my allergies.I cannot desensitize when this allergy is do too much latex exposure of wearing latex gloves when working in child care. Also it is not a good idea because it causes asthma attacks. Lastly it also irritates a damaged nerve and turns my whole foot red and makes it burn.
