What is the compression of these socks? 15- 20 mmhg?

I would guess they are on the low end around 10-15 mmhg. If you are looking for higher compression these will not be what you're looking for. I can tell you myself and girlfriend wear them everyday to work and for being on our feet 10 hour shifts neither one of us have any foot pain when getting home now after wear this product.

I purchased these compression stockings a while ago in the small size and my calf diameter is 14 inches. They still do not sag and still holds compression very well. I use them every day. Open toe helps because it will not compress around the toes. Good luck!

Edwin, First of all, I apologize for taking so long to answer. These were originally ordered for my husband, and were to small for him. I am female, stand about 6'. These are knee socks and in the large size, tight on my calves - enough so that I have had bruises. The compression is somewhat gradual up the sock but still quite tight at the top. Hope this helps.

A compression of 15-20 medium would not be the same as a 20-50 large. Size depends on height from ankle to knee and diameter of calf and diameter of ankle. Compression is the tightness of the fabric and you should get what your doctor ordered.

Hmm? I'm not sure. My calf is 15 my shoe is 12. But i don't know what size sock i bought. If you are using them for running I would go a little big. They are pretty tight. I do love them. good luck

They tend to fit me more up under the knee, and not around the widest part of my calf. I'm 6ft tall, and never had an issue with them feeling too tight wearing them all day (in and out of snow) while working. Don't even remember any red elastic type marks on skin common to tight socks.

They are knee-high, and the compression goes up the calves. I could stand for the calf compression to be more and the cuff to be less. I don't know the compression value though.

Sorry, I didn't see this question till tonight. I have and wear these compression socks almost nightly. I've had them for almost 3 months and I still find these to have excellent support.

I don't believe it says on the compression. Men's shoe size from 7-9 ? I really don't remember. My husband wears 8 1/2 or 9 and these are really tight, but they work.

I think if you bought the extra large, you should be just fine. I ended up going from an extra large down to a large because the extra large on my 15 inch calves just felt like a sock not a compression sleeve. I think I read under one of the reviews was a person with 18 inch calves and he bought the extra large and he had no problems

If you are used to wearing compression socks you could size down. If you are not you might want to size up until you get a feel for what level of compression works best for you. I wouldn't size down if you are planning on wearing them for extended periods of time.

I can only guess, because the compression is not given anywhere online or with the socks. They feel like a 20-30 compression to me... that's the best I can tell you.

They are snug, but i wouldn't call them compression socks. They are thick. I like them for deadlifts and rope climbs.

I'm sorry I don't know anything about the product you're asking about. I bought the surgical open toed compression socks. Those are comfortable and the band does not pinch or roll.

HelloMy son wears these socks when he plays football. They have slight padding for protection at the heel. They are snug and supportive and offer mild compression, especially at the arch. Hope this helps.

They are not exactly compression. They work very well to protect the crotch rubbing of the skin and the same shorts with skin and avoid burns when training. If they are snug, but not so much as a compression.
