Best Compression Socks for Women & Men (6 Pairs) - Improve Blood Circulation for Running, Sports & Pregnancy - Perfect for Workouts, Travel & Recovery

I bought these because very recently, I started experiencing swelling to my ankles & calves and Dr. Google recommended compression socks among other simple remedies like decreasing sodium & increasing water intake.. These were the only style I’d be caught dead in; I also really liked the retro “tube-sock” look which goes nicely with the 80s cheerleading uniforms that I compulsively purchased on eBay over the past couple months. My only real complaint (and perhaps they’re meant to be this way? ) is that while they’re nice and snug and compression-y in the shaft of the sock, they’re comparatively roomy on my (swollen!) feet & ankles. I don’t think of myself as having particularly dainty feet but maybe I do? Or maybe it’s the unisex/multi-sizing? I wear a 7 1/2 shoe (women’s) and I can’t recommend these for anyone whose feet are any smaller than mine. Put it this way- if there were even a bit more room in the foot, the excess would bag-up when I put my foot into a shoe- like what happens when I try to wear a pair of mens’ socks. My feet- as well as my aesthetic sensibilities- are extremely sensitive to weird wrinkles & bagginess. This S/M was the smallest size option & they’re ok. They’re fun & retro looking and at least one pair is a pretty good match for one of my cheer uniforms. For that reason alone, I’ll also be ordering these in the white with colored stripes. Still- I can’t help thinking that they would be more effective at reducing the swelling if they were tighter- particularly in the foot & ankle. If there were An X-small/Small size option, I would certainly have bought that. But alas, there is not. I’m starting to think that compression sport socks in youth sizes might be my only other option if I don’t want beige, grandma-style support hose but I’m afraid that kids’ socks will ok in the feet but, being as they are for children, too tight in the calf & ankle. Oh well. At least these are cute & they do KINDA work. Although, for compression socks to wear during any air-travel in the near-future, I’ll probably be looking elsewhere. I would not want to rely on the compression-power in these to prevent a blood clot from traveling to my lungs and/or brain.Love these comprehension socks. I was so excited to find some that didn't look mawmawish. The circulation in my feet and legs has improved i am finding my legs do not swell as often since this purchase. The only thing i don't love is the toe seam is a little to wide and i can feel the ends on the bottom of my toe. It should be noted i have tiny size 5.5 feet and I'm super OCD about the way socks fit.Very comfortable.They're for ,and they are comfortable so far.A little snug but kids love them Will buy again but in a bigger sizeThese aren't your regular compression sock they are a lot easier to put on and are super cuteComfortable are used them for after surgeryYou never know if something you order online is going to fit as the description says it will. I order the large size of these socks, and they fit perfectly! They’re snug without cutting into my skin, and they look really cute. They help a lot to keep my ankles from swelling when it’s hot out, and they don’t make my legs hot.So far I'm happy, compression feels good, colours are fun and the price is great. HOWEVER I fell in between the size charts and went bigger... And as stated in previous reviews not all colours fit the same and I still wasn't able to wear them all!! Also upon reviewing what I bought v.s what I got I recieved different colours then what was advertised.have been using these socks at work[on my feet all day].since I purchased them. they are snug. pretty comfortable .my feet and legs don't fell as tired after wearing these all day compared to a regular crew sockI love these I have big calf’s and fit nice and tight they do not fall down. All but one pair were great. The one pair was sewn weird because of the design I couldn’t wear it. I ordered the large.The selection in my packet was good though I'd like less rainbow and more weirdness.Item arrived on time however they are not the same as what was in the picture.They do work though
