are these good for light compression?

Hi Jehlen, These are good for wicking away sweat, also since fingers are in thin cloth, it gives protection from blisters too and super comfy. But they are not compression.

They are very thin and lightweight. Very little compression. They felt more like a layer of skin and were shorter in length than I expected. I would suggest a neoprene product.

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.

These are very light and close-fitting with minimum restriction of movement. I think they would serve your purpose very well if you are looking for ankle-to-knee protection.

They are more light to medium. Depends on how hard you work out. What I like is that I can do deep water exercises hands free as these also give buoyancy in the water.

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.

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.

yes. Also they are light and fit well. I hardly know I am wearing them while I am doing surgery. Peter Barry M.D.

These sockes are like dress socks and I read that u can use them at rest and while walking and daily activities...like my husband does. I don't see why you couldn't . I think it would help the swelling and from your legs becoming for fatigued and get better results from the compression. My hubbie sometimes wears regular socks over the compression socks to help reduce any friction. It's up to your comfort level

They're not for heavy lifting, in my opinion. I like to have my thumbs covered or I get blisters. The grip is great, but not enough coverage for me. Also, make sure to get the correct size or you'll be sliding around.

They are decent for light bag work. If you keep control and form they will be fine. Nice medium between protection and damaging for calcification. The lower knuckles will be exposed.

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.

No, i use the compression shorts as underwear. They are too tight fitting to wear anything underneath them. It would be very uncomfortable

Yes, absolutely. I use them for 30-minute kickboxing workouts which require a somewhat tight fist so they would defintely work for making a loose fist for jogging.

Yes they are but not the kind of compression that requires 2 people to put on & off. I bought large just becaue I didn't want to deal with that & these really fit the bill, they give support, they give relief & best of all I can actually put them on myself & they don't cut off circulation @ the knee cap. I love them, they are not PRETTY, but they do the job & I would never take a long trip by car or plane without wearing them & they don't make your skin sweat or itch. Highly recommend

The product doesn't list compression values so your best bet is to check with your doctor. You may need to have them custom made by a medical supply company and your insurance may pay for them. One company I'm familiar with is Jobst.

My wife says no because of the compression aspect. If you went a size larger maybe not so bad.
