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.

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!

Yes. In my opinion when I wear the compressions, I feel more secure. I feel my legs are supported as I run. I do not feel overly compressed or too tight. I wear them for every run and love the feel. Definitely recommend.

They do not look like medical socks and are not too tight. They are extremely comfortable and make good everyday or gym socks. I believe they are called diabetic socks, since they don't have any seams that might cut off circulation for someone who has diabetes.

I had not thought of them as compression socks, but in a way they are a light compression because the upper sock retains its hug on your calf nicely, unlike some discount socks that stretch out quickly so you have to tug them up your leg and back in place after a while. The foot portion is not as 'huggy', but it holds its shape and position on your foot nicely. They are very comfortable!

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, but there are different strengths of compression stockings as well. The tighter they are, the harder they will be to get this device into them. It all depends on how much strength you have and how much strength your stockings have and your own dexterity. I've bought two and pre-load them with the two socks myself and leave them for the patient, so that when the patient is ready to put on their own socks, they can do that part themselves. You can always return them if they don't work for you, right?

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

Yes. They are lightweight and cloth but they have enough compression that keeps my hands from swelling. They do take a little getting used to at first but after that they are wonderful!

Not sure exactly what the question is, but ive been using these for a year during CrossFit WODs, and they have kept the same great level of compression since day 1. Awesome socks.

I don't think they look like medical socks. I have large calves and they aren't to tight for me

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

No. there is a seam on the toe section. However, the socks are thick enough that I had not even noticed until I saw your question.

I have purchased both the dress sock and the regular compression sock. The dress sock is more of a traditional knitted type sock. I didn't feel the dress sock felt like as firm of a compression as the regular sock.

Definitely. That said, I (senior female) wear Men's Medium in compression socks; they always reach my knee--these comfortably so. I am also athletic, with well-developed calves. So, yes!

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 have washed them with my colored clothes, warm water, cold rinse, low dryer. These are not really tight socks, if you really need good compression, these are not it.
