If anyone has worn these and the Futuro restoring dress socks (firm 15-20mmhg), how do these compare to the Futuro? Thanks for any answers.

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.

I have worn these for a few months and so far I don't notice any difference between the two brands. Of course I can not speak of the future. Right now I am very happy

Yes. Patricia, at the amazon search line enter B001MPXPRC and click on GO.This is the exact Jill Gel 1/8" thick. Two in one box. Although a bit pricey they last a long time.Suggest you buy 4 boxes if you use them everyday. My experience is don't wash them daily, maybe a weekly washing would be enough. Always make sure your feet are free of creams or any debri.Note here, sock threads collect mostly on the outside edges and cannot be washed off. Thus you losethe stickiness of those areas. When removing them take care not to pull to hard which can shorten their life. Yes. Patricia, at the amazon search line enter B001MPXPRC and click on GO.This is the exact Jill Gel 1/8" thick.

I have not tried Futuro, but I order XL in any brand as they all seem too small otherwise, & I'm not as tall as you.

I ordered the Pintoli/Fytto Style 1020 Women's Comfy Compression Socks, 15-20mmHg, Knee High, Black, Large Size, and I absolutely love them! They are thick but have a nice silky feel. I cannot imagine them snagging or getting a run. They seem very durable.

Hello Annemarie, this is Mike from Conductive Therapy Shop. We're in the process of auditing our Amazon listings and came across your question. Thank you so much for posting it. The socks are made to fit a fairly wide range of feet, both small and large. They fit my size 10 foot really well for example, and also my wife's size 6 women's nicely. One of our customers from Texas who uses the socks with one of our Ultima Neuro TENS devices claims to have a size 15 foot, which is the biggest foot we know of to have successfully used the socks. There's also a reviewer here who indicates that he has a size 15 foot. In the clinic we occasionally run into size 12 and 13s, and these can admittedly be a tight fit. Keep in mind that these socks are made uniquely for treatment, so the user would most likely be stationary, and wouldn't be overly flexing the socks as he/she would with every-day type footwear. The key to using the socks with larger feet is to saturate them with liquid before putting them on so that the fabric relaxes. We include a bottle of conductive spray with this package to help improve the conductivity of the socks, but I'd recommend using tap water first to thoroughly wet the socks (be careful to very GENTLY wring out the excess water). To make putting the socks on larger feet easier, you will want to next roll them into a donut shape before unrolling them up the foot much in the same way you would do with a Pantyhose type stocking. To remove the socks you'd reverse this process, being sure to unroll them between uses so that they can fully air dry. If you still find the sock is too small you can always contact us through Amazon, or go through Amazon directly within 30 days if you're using Prime, and we'll be happy to let you return them to us for a refund.

I agree with Up4Grabs. Perfect for for long, fast paced, walking for those with plantar fasciitis. We just walked all over Italy and couldn't have done it without these!

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 have implants in both feet.. i got size 7 although i am a 6.5-7 depending on the maker and the style of the shoe. i slip them on bare foot just to take my two yorkies out in the morning because the grass is wet, and they slip right on with no problem.If you choose to wear socks, they should be thin knee socks or regular nylons, unless you have no calves or they are very slim. I find that they are very comfortable, are washable and i have a wide calf.These reach mid-calf and come with a very comfortable insole that you can remove and replace with another one of your choice.I have 3 of these boots in different patterns and color and recently purchased them in solid black and they are beautiful and very well made with tabs on the side to help ease them on as well as on the back of each heel to ease them off.This is made IN AMERICA not CHINA.I do suggest that you contact the Sloggers Company and have them give you the measurements around the instep and calf, then take your own measurement, at least you will know if they will fit you before you order. They look great with skinny jeans by the way and are TOTALLY water proof and are washing machine safe.... how about that!!! Hope you're able to get them.!!

Comfort-wise, they are very thin and lightweight. They wick away sweat very well but being so thin they may not have enough cushioning to be on your feet all day. They are extremely well made and will last a long time but I'm not absolutely sure they will suit your needs. I could recommend Under Armour or even Timberland socks that wick away sweat and provide a lot more thickness, so those might be more suitable for what you are looking for. :)

I wear them with 2mm neoprene socks and they are great. No chafing or anything. I actually used them today for more than 3 hours and not a problem in the world.

Hi the sizing chart use to be right on the product page but i am not seeing it anymore. I wear a size 9.5 shoe and the sock size is a medium. I would contact the seller Vitalsox ( click on the link above ship and sold by Amazon) they will answer the question or google Vitalsox and website second link down

Sorry I am just getting back to you I was on vacation last week. I don't know what the difference is but I can tell you I think the shoe is a great fit for the price I normally wear a 8 1/2 in shoes but in sneakers I do go up to the next size so if I want I can wear thicker socks with them. Try the and 8 1/2 and see how it feel? I hope this help you some.

I would not get the 202's. I won a pair and do not sue them because they are VERY tight and uncomfortable to wear for even 5 min.

I tried wearing mine under my dress socks. Problem was the front kept rolling up under my foot making it uncomfortable to wear. I haven't tried them over the sock. I imagine they would still roll up when placing foot in shoes.

I haven't used wool socks, but the thermal ones worked well on a daily basis. Hope this helps u!

I walked around San Francisco Marina on new years and they held up quite well. I've also worn them multiple days afterwards. I'd say you'd be good for 3 days of to and from use in Vegas!

my foot is 11.5 and am into minimalistic running so my arch is larger than usual (It's almost impossible to fit into regular runners). I can fit the large over my foot but it's way too tight. My impression is that they make the socks slightly smaller than they should be. I would go one size larger than what I normally wear if I were you.
