SB SOX Compression Socks for Men & Women (20-30 mmHg) - Best Support Stockings for Travel, Medical, and Sports - Perfect for Everyday Wear

Never wore compression socks before in my life. Had some folks from church highly suggest them. Ran into problems with left leg from back to toes. PT helped a little. MRI showed nerve issues. Trying chiropractor before a spine specialist. Bought these as another way to conservatively try & fix things. I am not a Dr. but these are a step in the good direction. They do help. Certainly, not a quick cure, but I have felt improvement from wearing them. Cold sensation & tingling in my foot is noticeably less. I have no problems wearing them for more than 8 hrs at a time. They are very high quality & are comfortable. Obviously they are tight. I have an easier time putting them on without balling them up trying the get the whole sock over my heel. Just start at the top sliding the unraveled sock over your foot & heel, then gently tug as you need pulling it where it gets snug. Much better than getting the whole bunged up sock over your whole leg. After the first wear, I bought 5 more pairs. Amazon even gave me a discount on a couple of them. I'm sold. Good socks.The only negative, is the cool material they are made of. Unavoidable. I am kinda sensitive to cooling fabric like spandex, moisture wicking clothes are a negative to me. These are cooling. They get cold easy. Yet, they are thin enough that you can wear a warm sock over them & they do not create a problem wearing your normal shoes. Still worth the buy. Understand the need for the material, will not knock off a star for it.

Getting the correct size means everything. That sounds like an obvious statement but sizing is different from company to company. There are two parts to sizing. First is the compression with figures such as 15/20, 20/30 etc. Your doctor, trainer or coach will make this determination for you. The second is the actual size. This is where it gets tricky. Some companies go SM/MED & LG/EXLG. Avoid these! SB Sox goes SM, MED, LG, & EXLG. Much easier & better fit. You may want to get your first pair from a medical supply store usually found in professional buildings. They will take your doctors compression measurements and then measure your lower leg in 2 spots with a tape measure. Make sure to write these numbers down as these shops charge top dollar & they're not covered by medicare! Having these numbers will allow you to shop on Amazon. The prices vary considerably. I found SB Sox to be in the mid range. I have tried a few different manufacturers and have been most pleased with SB Sox. Good luck!

Okay, I’m hesitant to write a review after only one day of wearing these, but they’re just so dang comfy! The second I put them on, I could tell they’d be better than the other 2 brands I have (Motif Medical (thin & not cute) & MomCozy (good compression, cute, but too long)). The biggest difference is how cushioned the feet are. They feel like nice athletic socks! I think with how soft the material is on the bottoms of the feet, they’ll likely pill, but that doesn’t bother me. And how cute is this hot pink? I have to wear these every day for pregnancy varicose veins, so I’m trying to be as fashionable as possible since it’s spring/summer and everyone can see them, haha. The only reason I knocked off a star is because according to their size chart, I should be a small, but I ordered a small & a medium, and the mediums fit PERFECTLY, while the small was too short in the feet and the calf. And if you read this far, I apologize for the crayoned play table, the toddlers are always one step ahead!

Man these things are tight. I am on my feet all day and I had a car wreck a while ago that left some pain in my leg, but with these on that didn’t happen at all. I have heard that these get a little looser with washing so I got the 30 compression so that even if they lose some compression over time I will still get the 15, and now honestly I hope they do lose some compression because these things are super tight 😂

Fit as the guide statesVery comfy, nice and thick for comfort but not so much that they make your feet sweaty.They don’t roll down stay in place.They work for my short legs but could easily fit someone with longer legs plenty of stech but provide great compression support. No complaints of leg pains or sore feet after my long days l.As a nurse it’s hard to find compression socks that are enjoyable to wear for 12 hours and these definitely fit the bill.Not to mention you have a wide variety of color options these socks feel like an expensive pair of dress socks but could easily be used for exercise or daily wear! Will definitely buy again!

I’m not sure what happened but this doesn’t seem like the XL size? I have purchased these socks 4 times before because I use them constantly as a healthcare worker. I’ve also referred many people to buy these socks.They have never appeared this small and they were very tight. The foot area is also significantly smaller than the previous XL I’ve purchased. The material also feels different. Now I’ll have to return these which bums me out. Have they changed the size and material used in these socks??I added a picture of how many times I purchased them in the past because I used to I love them so much!
