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

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 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.

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 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 !!!!!

This is definitely a few steps ahead of previous compression socks I've bought. The fabric is substantial. It's still thin enough to use with all of my shoes and boots, but not so thin that I worry about putting my thumb through it while pulling them on. Putting them on does require using the inside-out toe-pocket method, but once the sock is on the foot and situated on the heel, pulling them up is not too difficult. Keep in mind I just tried them on right out of the box, so they have not had a chance to loosen up at all. Once on, they are incredibly comfortable. The compression is truly graduated -- I have no pain or discomfort at the knee, and I do not have any puffing out above the sock, which is amazing, especially since the compression is SO GOOD around the foot and ankle, where I really need it. These are strong, well-made socks, and they stay up without causing pain. Finally, they are beautiful. When I saw the pictures of the socks, I thought the design was probably painted on, which I wasn't in love with. The only reason I bought the florals rather than the diamond-heel style was that I could get them the next day, rather than the two-to-three weeks it would take for the diamond-heel. But I was pleasantly surprised. The design is knitted in, and it's spectacular. I'm looking forward to wearing them with ankle-length pants so the flowers peek out over my shoes. I highly recommend these to anyone who wants a compression sock that actually compresses, without squeezing too hard, especially at the knee. I'll be buying more.

The leg length is very long and I have to fold over the top. I hope that doesn’t impact circulation. Also they don’t deal very tight and were super easy to get on, maybe I should have ordered a size smaller, I did measure my calf and bought the size appropriate for the measurement. There is plenty of space for the toes. The product has 3 views in the same frame, buyer beware it is only one pair of socks and not three pair.

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.

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.

Despite some negative reviews I found these to be perfect for purpose. I have severe arthritis in my knees and often end up with swollen ankles as a result. I used these compression socks as flight socks and they were perfect. Not one ounce of swelling on a 13hr flight. Perfect sizing and very comfortable to wear. Bought a second pair and thoroughly recommend them.
