Are these compression socks?

Hello My 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 for either, but I would just get compression socks because these socks do nothing for pain.

I don't think they look like medical socks. They don't leave an indention in my legs.

They are really like tube socks. I'm a woman with size 8 1/2 shoe size and they fit fine for me as far as feet go. My problem is really that my ankle and legs are very swollen so the top of the sock is too tight for me around and it goes only half way up my calf. So I had to snip the band at the top and roll them down. But that was a leg problem, not a foot issue. I hope this helps, it's all I've got. :)

These are thicker than Jobst, but still is a compression sock that really isn't for the purpose of keeping your feet warm.. Why not put heavy sock over?

No, just roll them open to get the toes in easily, and unroll them up to put on. I've used these for foot pain for a while, and they are great. I just had serious foot surgery and have to keep compression on to prevent swelling - these are perfect!

No I do not believe they are. Look for Quik Clot to get clotting. These will control bleeding through compression. My intention, if needed, is to use both this and Quik Clot.

They aren't like soccer shin guards. These are compression sleeves which are more like strong socks. They aren't going to offer any sort of protection. You'll need to look for something more specialty for whatever you are doing or possibly a product like shin guards for soccer as an alternative. These are strictly well made compression socks to help with blood flow and not for protection. The assist in blood flow helps with recovery which has helped my calf cramps. Some sleeves are lycra and don't really compress. These are a strong and breathable woven material that gives you graduated compression from the ankle up over the calf.

I think these are for sun protection. They do fit snug, but I do not use them for compression.

Compression socks help move blood from your feet and legs back toward your heart. They also keep swelling down.

I don't see why not. They are a knee high dress sock that offers compression. Many runners are using compression socks these days.

Yes. The are very comfortable socks. We wear them for everyday socks as well as sport socks.

No, these are thermal socks. They are used to keep your feet warm in cold climates.

I would say no. I am on my feet all day and I wear support stockings with a short pair of crew socks over them and that solves the problem. By the way, when I bought Miracle socks on amazon, they were not near as tall on the calf as the ones I got from Walmart.I don't know why that is, but they were and I couldn't use them.

Yes they are thin, make sure you order a size that provides right amount of compression

They are thinner than regular socks so I would say no. They are not real rough.

If they are light compression it may help, but I will be honest with you. This product in my opinion was not meant for anything but socks and it does work great for that purpose. I do not wear the compression stockings so mine is only a guess. I am truly sorry that I am unable to be of more help to you. May God bless you and yours always.
