These socks are made of nice materials and feel very comfortable, like regular socks, rather than the somewhat plasticy feel of a lot of the more single-purpose compression sleeves out there. However, the compression effect seems to be milder by the same degree that they are more comfy and sock-like. If you're just starting out exploring whether compression socks would be helpful, then these would be a great entry point. On me (5'9") these come almost all the way up to the patella of my knee, and the elastic seems strong enough to grip there behind the knee to keep them from slipping, so I know that they're fitting me correctly. However, there's not really enough compression in them for what I need. They're very nice socks--just not strong enough to affect my low blood pressure and dizziness issues. Still, I think they're very well made and I like the L and R printing, and all around fit. I'll just be sure to always layer them over some of my older compression sleeves that are growing weaker with age, and the combination should do well enough. I really like that these can be on the outside and just look like sporty socks, so I get fewer "oh no, what happened?" comments when out in public. A lot of the stronger compression socks look like medical devices or ankle braces, and people get worried. Not a problem with these!

I wear a size 11 men’s shoe, my calves are 16” in circumference, and my ankles are 9”, so I ordered the L/XL socks. They fit me well. The foot portion was sized almost perfectly, so I didn’t have to stretch them at all. The leg portion goes up to just below my knee, and I’m 5’9”, but that’s somewhat relative since I pull them on, which stretches the sock.

The socks are well-made, and I don’t have any issues in the toe box area. I appreciate the extra-thick heel and sole areas. The socks are marked L and R on the top near the big toe. I feel a little light compression around my insole area, but the most noticeable compression is in the calf area, which provides the proper amount of support.

After I hand-washed and line-dried the socks (the recommended method), I wore them for the entire day. They felt great throughout the day, and I didn’t have to adjust them at all. This included a 5-mile walk and a 10-mile ride on an exercise bike

My first impression taking them from the pack was positive. They feel really nice to the touch and are equally comfortable on your feet. They feel like they will hold up in regular use and have just the right amount of stretch to them. I would recommend them.

These socks are very comfortable. They are a blend of snug and relaxed. I have been wearing them for a few hours over the past week. I find them supportive and soothing. I wear a women’s 9.5 so I ordered a l-xl size. They fit nicely. I’d rather have a little big than too tight or falling off my heal. They are a medium thickness and sit just below my knee. The pink color is cute.

Solidly built and comfortable compression socks. I use compression socks daily due to bilateral lymphatic edema. These socks are shorter than what I normally use as they only go above the calf for me but seem just as effective. They provide a appropriate amount of compression w/o feeling uncomfortable, painful or the feeling of cutting off circulation. They stay up well and come in 4 different colors. I would recommend.
