Do these socks provide any compression to the top of the foot and ankle?

yes , you feel like you have an insert in your shoe and your ankle stops hurting, as was my case.

Not that much compression at top of the foot and ankle. But very nice for the arch.

I would also say yes as they are very hard to get on. You may find some compression socks with a softer material that would be much easier for you.

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.

The material is pretty thick compared to my compression running socks. I don't feel as of it's that breathable. However, it does provide ample compression and I have not pulled a calf muscle since investing in compression sleeves for my calves.

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

I am able to put them on over high socks and even long pajama bottoms. It does help to reduce rubbing, but sometimes I will need to twist them one way or another to make them the most comfortable.

These socks are 20-30 mmHg and they only come up to mid calf on me. Sockwell also makes a knee hi with slightly less compression. I like both.

I believe so. Any ankle socks I have, running and not running, are always dry by morning.

These socks are not super thick, i'd say medium thickness. I think they run super big! no compression whatsoever in the socks I ordered for the size i needed. shoe size 8 size M

HelloMy 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.

Not sure since they have graduated compression. There is more in the foot and ankle.

I am sorry, I do not wear high socks. I would test for you, but do not own any. My socks are ankle socks.

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.

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

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?

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 socks come right up to under my kneecap where it is more "bony" than when on the calf. There is just a very slight compression to keep the sock up and from rolling down. Have now bought several pairs as they are most comfortable around and don't bind and compress on the ankle or calf.
