Is there a big difference between these 2XU running socks and the 2 XU recovery socks?

The 2XU running socks are compression socks with a compression of 30. I have had blood clots in the past & need the 30 compression. I don't know the compression rate of the recovery sock. Sorry. If you need 30 compression go with the running sock, or check with your doctor. He/she should be able to tell you.

the running sock is VERY hard putting on and taking off. but love the sock, very great on the legs. i leave them on all day. but, really i would wear the socks when walking, running and every day wear. p s too heavy for hot months

I'm sorry but I don't really know what the difference would be. We purchased the #6300 and am pleased with them. We bought them to use on vacations and to trash them when we leave the hotel. They are far from plush, just flat with no support. But they have never slipped even on wet tile floors so they have served their purpose well. Sorry I couldn't have been more help.

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 wear a size 6 1/2 or 7 shoe. I originally lurched a med, but the felt they were a little big, so I ordered a second pair in size small. They fit perfectly, not to tight and don't stretch out too much during my workout.You'll love these socks. Good luck:)

I personally don't see much of a difference, one may be a shade darker then the other. I had purchased the gold socks.

I wear a size 9 running shoe and am right between a Medium and Large in these socks. The large is a better fit. I can't address other sizes but I hope this helps. These are fantastic socks, in my (humble) opinion.

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.

Oh, you poor thing....both feet hurt from this? Ouch and I thought I had it bad.....when I ordered mine, which was some time ago, I got two for the price of one. I think that they said in the description of the socks that there were two. Anyway, good luck and they are wonderful by the way . Using Penetrex really helps too!!!!

Compared to any other compression sock these are much easier but still require a little finese. I LOVE them, they work. I have a ton of compression stockings that I couldn't never get on by myself & if I did they cause me to itch, to sweat, & actually leave indents so I think my circulation is being hindered. The do not leave indents, they do not sweat & make you itch. I bought mine in XL normally I would not bt I wanted firm compression without feeling strangled. They are a little long for me but I don't mind because they are totally comfortable. They are not "pretty" but I would buy another pair in a heartbeat and I have gotten a lot of relief from them.

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.

Kw2013,I don't know what women's spa socks are like. Sorry.Why don't you just buy a pair of the Terries Slip Resistant Socks and decide for yourself?

I really don't think this will work. I bought this device for my father, who had a hip replacement surgery recently. He uses some heavy duty socks, which are a little less harder than compression socks. Well, the device worked for that, but honestly I really don't know if this will do the same for compression socks.

They are radically different. You need to find a store that has a dr. Scholl's kiosk that measurese the pressure on your foot (it's free) and you will get an analysis of which orthotic fits you best. There are about 20 different choices, so don't guess. This product saved my feet!

Not too sure. I tossed the packaging. However, my husband has tried several different brands and he likes these ones best. In my opinion, the socks are mostly thin (really thin) cotton and a little nylon. Hope you like them. I do recommend them. Michelle

Yes, they are completely different because they are tailored to your particular feet and posture. You should go in to one of the many stores that have a pressure sensor (Bed, Bath and Beyod for instance) and check what works best for you. I've had these for over a year now and they really make a huge difference. I use them in my work shoes.

This is only a personal observation. My feet sweat less in these than in a cotton sock.
