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.

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!

These socks are basically regular, stretchy socks with the cuff ending up slightly above the ankle. They are NOT as plush as women's spa socks. Hope this helps.

No, I don't think this device will work for you. I don't wear compression socks but a friend of mine does, and he needs assistance daily to put them on. I bought this because I have trouble (at 67 years of age) of touching my toes and have had difficulty every day putting on my wool socks - this certainly makes the chore much easier.

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

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. :)

I think so. I am registered nurse and I am on my feet while working. I was also pregnant. These sock helped with fatigue and swelling.

No, these are not very thick. They are the most comfortable socks ever but wear out very quickly. I have a 100 UA items and these don't meet their normal wear standards.

No they're not designed specifically for knee support and they're a mild compression overall. If you're serious about knee support in compression how about trying Jobst Men's Compression socks, thigh highs, or T.E.D. stockings.

They are not tight by any means, nor do they ride down into my shoes.They are very comfortable. However, I would guess that if most socks are tight for you, these will be as well.

Since I don't suffer from PF, I can't say yes/no w any certainty; however, they do offer compression around the heel and lower ankle, so it *seems* to me like they would help.

Absolutely! They aren't as thick as basketball socks though. Imagine a white crew sock w/ color and patterns on 'em. That's basically what these are, Lol

Not sure about that situation, I got them because I have calf pain at times and these offer my legs a mild compression support and warmth which helps with the pain and soreness.

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!

No, for that you might want to try light weight Smartwool socks. These are for hot weather, they are very thin.

All compression sock will help reduce the likelihood of developing DVT when sitting for extended period on long haul flights. Airline cabins are compressed therefore so is everyone inside. Affects vary from person to person. Personally I just used these for the 1st time a week ago when traveling from Canada to the Middle East and noticed a big reduction in swelling of my ankles.

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