- Physix Gear Compression Socks 20-30 mmHg - Men & Women - Running, Nurses, Shin Splints, Flight, Travel

I enjoy these compression socks. I've used them a few times and they work well for compression and are comfortable. On me they go up to my knees and just a tiny bit past. I have the ones with the pink flowers on the foot/ankle. They're attractive. They go on as easily as any compression socks, meaning that when you use them and are familiar with them they go very well and easily, but there is a bit of a learning curve at the beginning. For compression socks they are on the low end of cost, which makes me very happy. If I could tell @Physix Gear Sport Store anything, I would love some of these floral compression socks with purple flowers and purple toe, as I'm much more of a purple woman than a pink woman. I have the XL socks and they fit well on my 15-16 inch calves, and size 10ish shoe-feet. If they come out with purple and even red (no orange) I'd purchase more.

Very highly recommended. For years I used Jobst (after having cellulitis); they were good, but very expensive (> $60 per pair!). This was from a local medical supply store and were probably overpriced (but 15 years ago, maybe not so much). When I needed new socks, I went on Amazon and got some much cheaper Spandex types (~ $12); they were okay, but very tight, and very hard to get on and off. Both Jobst and Spandex brands got holes in the heels. These Physix are very, very good and not too expensive (1/3 the cost of Jobst). The are textured and slide on fairly easily and slide off fairly easily as well. They have a sturdy feel and in that way are similar to Jobst (the Spandex ones were very thin). They stay up on my leg, near the knee (Jobst did not). And they are very comfortable. We'll see how well they hold up over time. I usually buy two pair and switch on and off. I already bought a total of four pair of these (the price will only go up) and hope they will last well. Looking for a good compression stocking? Try these out.

I have a job that requires me to on my feet eight to ten hours a day. As I have gotten older I have had to use compression socks to protect the veins in my legs. They work, period... However... over the years I have had many different brands. Most of them I buy at the drug store. These Physix Gear Compression Socks are the best ones I have ever tried. Not by a little, but buy a lot, at least in my opinion. Here's why. First, they FEEL better. They hold the legs nicely with a good feeling of support and compression without being TOO much. The feel is just right. At least for me. I always buy about a medium compression but manufacturers seem to vary. Some to firm, others not firm enough. Some fall down. Some leave a red mark at the top of the elastic band below my knee. They just basically compress without doing much else. The Physix Gear compresses but seems to massage at the same time. I'm not sure why or how they do that but my legs actually feel invigorated by the action of these socks. Perhaps it's the way the material is stitched. I have noticed a cross hatch pattern woven into the sock. Whatever it is, it works great, at least for me. It's not just a difference, it's a big difference. They are comfortable, firm, never leave a mark, never fall down, and massage the leg in an unusual and positive way. Now here's another thing. This may sound silly but for me it's also a big help. ALL my other socks are plain black. I've got a dozen pairs or so and after my wife washes them it takes me about twenty minutes to pair them up. This drives me crazy. Sometimes I get a pair wrong and all day long one leg feels different than the other or one falls down and the other does not. Anyway, I love that these socks come in many different colors at the heel. I have been buying different colors and it makes for an instant match. No more weekly, "sock, sock, where the hell is the match for this sock" game. Thank god. I'm throwing all the other ones away. Finally, it's not often that I post a review unless the product really stands out and this one does. At least for me. I hope this helps someone else out there who is a compression sock fan. Try these. I think you will be pleased.

I hated to send these back. I wore them 1 day. The tightness at the calf was perfect and according to their size chart. The problem was they were too long. Should come 2” below the knee, and these came up to the bend of my knee, and when smoothed out, wrinkled at the ankle on the top of foot, and made deep grooves in the skin. I have worn compression socks on and off for 25 years. Most don’t fit well unless Rx grade (which is very costly) so I’m always looking for others. The fabric is soft and Great Quality. If you are looking for a great sock that is comfortable, durable, and stylish, (and they fit you well), then you will love these !!!!!

As a nurse, I can tell a huge difference in how my legs and feet feel when wearing compression socks. I've been wearing them for 7 years many days or nights when I work. They reduce fatigue and also keep swelling down in my ankle that I've had a couple of surgeries on in the past. The swelling reduction is very important for me because my ankle hurts when it swells too much, and 12-14 hour shifts inevitably do that. Add my current pregnancy and the accompanying swelling, restless legs that come all the time, and fatigue from hell, and I figured it was time to upgrade a bit. So I came to Amazon. I've owned many pairs of compression socks over the years. I usually purchased them at scrub stores (some cheaper than these, some around the same price). I wear a size 10 shoe and usually get a large compression sock to fit my feet into. A problem I run into a lot is that compression socks compress under my knee too much or don't come up quite enough (that could be my fault. I get tired of yanking on them before I should). To be fair, I'm fat. My legs aren't huge, but I can pinch some fat by my knee if I try. So some tightness is okay. But I don't want to cut my circulation off. These are a bit priceier than some other options on Amazon that look similar. I ordered one pair due to the stellar reviews. I also ordered some that were less than half the price that also had great reviews. Out of the package, I could immediately tell these were higher quality than the others (I'd hope so at more than twice the price). The material is thick (not too thick) and soft. The pink and black colors were nice. Compared to the others, the material alone seemed to make up for some of the price difference. Applying them was made easier by the pattern on the foot (most of my others are either solid or the entire sock has a certain pattern). They stretched easily enough to make application a bit less unpleasant than usual. I didn't have to fight with them for them to sit at the correct place on my leg. Fast forward 14 hours - my legs felt similarly to any other compression sock. I did notice my ankle was less swollen than with other socks though, which is great. Taking them off is easy enough. They did leave a lovely pattern on my legs (a diamond pattern as opposed to most of my socks that leave horizontal lines). They didn't leave the usual level of indentation under my knee. Compared to the cheaper ones, these are fantastic. I plan to order more. I've washed these probably 20 times and have noticed no change in them from new. Oh and make sure to air dry your compression socks. The dryer is wayyy too hot (even on low) - and will destroy compression socks. Think of all that elastic! Give this brand a try. Your legs are so worth it.

I own two pairs of Physix Gear Stamina compression socks. The first I bought on Amazon Spring 2017; the 2nd in the Summer. I wear them every day. The support and fit are unbelievably excellent!!! As for my legs, since I've been wearing these socks, standing for long periods of time clearing brush and doing other yard work, I no longer have edema or red sore blotches of irritated skin forming in my lower legs from venous insufficiency. [Note: I'm not a doctor and NO PART of this review is to be construed as medical advice but is merely what I have done for myself. If you have a medical condition or problem, go to your doctor.] With diet modifications of salt reduction, and with the addition of Vitamin D3 with K2, (100mcg K2 per 1000 IU D3), 2-3x/day, 1/4-1/2 tsp cayenne pepper / 1-2x/day, 1-2 Gr buffered 2-stage time-released real Vitamin-C daily, 1-2 cans sardines in water or mustard per day, which is containing Vit. D3, Vitamin E, Calcium, Protein, EPA + DHA (Omega-3 fatty acids), 1/2 - 1 tsp powdered Magnesium citrate daily, and zero pharmaceuticals, my blood system has become healthier. and the dark blotches of skin discoloration from previous hemosiderin staining, chronic varicose, venous insufficiency have faded and reduced. According to my research (And you SHOULD do your own!), K2 with D3 and magnesium helps support the body's ability to direct ingested calcium into bones, instead of into veins and arteries. and may help reduce veinous calcification, thus possibly reducing heart-attack risks. Cayenne helps your body find alternate blood routes and supports venous internal cleansing. Back to the socks... They're great for support, BUT the quality of their design and construction is lacking. The choice of material used above and forward of the 'heel cup' area, is EXTREMELY POOR and wears out VERY QUICKLY. If you wear them daily as I do, don't expect a pair to last more than 2 months, before the arch material tears, gets a run, develops a hole, and needs to be mended, or the sock needs to be thrown away. Why? It's the 'striped' material that is the low quality part. The solid colored main sock material black and grey, blue, etc. 'heel cup' and 'toe area' material are GREAT - and last a LONG TIME!!! But I guess they have to make them poorer quality so that they wear out sooner so you'll buy more. But at $19 a pair, unless you're a millionaire, that isn't all that great a deal. But if you are one, do you really want to invest in a liability rather than an asset? So, how have I made it for 2 years with two pairs? Simple, but not so easy. I cut good, strong nylon or polyester material out of old gym shorts and shirts, pulled out a needle, some thread and sewed patches on the worn out areas, cutting out the bad parts. The first few times, I did this by hand. The one in the picture, I did mostly by machine. Much, much faster by machine!! It takes me about 45 minutes to repair one sock by hand and less than 10 minutes by machine. Note: To make a patch, cut a triangle of material 8" x 8" x 7", as the patch will need to be about 6" long x 5" wide - for Men's XL socks. If doing by hand, a chain stitch works well, at about 3/16" from material edges. And with polyester or nylon material, the edges won't fray like cotton, so you won't have to fuss with hemming. If done by machine, be sure to back stitch at the start and final stitch to reduce the possibility of the stitches coming out, About every 3-4 months I have to resew them. Btw, I'm a 6'2" 242# man. I work outside, lots of standing, walking, medium to heavy physical work in sturdy work boots. These socks keep my feet cool in the Spring and Summer and warm in the Fall and Winter. Rarely do I need extra socks over them in the winter. But if my feet may get wet, yes. I'd like to find better quality compression socks, that don't need constant repair. If you know of any better ones, please give me a heads up. Thanks a million! Take care.

Consistently great sock. Strong compression yet easy to get on and off. Durable and long lasting. Original pairs going strong after 2 years. Good quality and value.

Good compression, quality sock. Not too difficult to get on. I use these when flying and they help prevent my feet from swelling.

Quando faccio le lunghe camminate le gambe risultano appesantite, una certa difficoltà di ritorno venoso si inizia a sentire, anche sul lavoro sto molto in piedi. Avevo provato alcune calze a compressione ma spesso mi segnavano in alto, lasciandomi il dubbio che alla fine l'elastico fermasse la circolazione più che aiutarla. Quelle Decathlon per esempio hanno avuto questo difetto. Queste sono lunghe, la parte alta in realtà sarebbe finita oltre il ginocchio, quindi rimane un po' piegata, ma l'elastico morbido e consistente non mi ha segnata affatto, un effetto tipo calzettoni da calcio. Sono rimaste su perfettamente e non davano quel senso di compressione eccessiva che fa venire voglia di toglierle appena a casa. Gambe più leggere e piede non infuocato. Decisamente approvate. Per la durata ancora non so, ma ho fiducia.

Chaussettes de qualité. Excellente compression. Gardent leur apparence et leur qualité sur la durée Je les recommande sans réserve.

Compré estos calcetines de compresión y la verdad que no me han decepcionado, son cómodos, sujetan bien y además tuve la suerte que los compré de oferta. Uso un 40 y pedí la l/XL, si los volviera a comprar elegiría la S/M, porque me quedan muy largos y tengo que doblarlos un poco arriba, quizás es lo único negativo de mi compra.

One sock has the toe part missing!

Nice looking. Feel great.
