Are these compression socks?

Hello My 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.

I think these are for sun protection. They do fit snug, but I do not use them for compression.

Not sure exactly what the question is, but ive been using these for a year during CrossFit WODs, and they have kept the same great level of compression since day 1. Awesome socks.

Not sure about that situation, I got them because I have calf pain at times and these offer my legs a mild compression support and warmth which helps with the pain and soreness.

That's a hard question to answer because it is all relative to what other compression hose/socks you've used before.I'd say they are a little harder to put on than the low compression hose out there. Definitely not as hard as the high compression Sigvaris or Jobst stockings. I use them everyday instead of using Jobst/Sigvaris with my normaldress socks on top of that. I use these as my dress socks and "kill two birds with one stone".

Yes! I'm not a doctor, so you should definitely talk to yours about this if you're worried, but compression socks are actually very good for pregnant women because they can really help the blood circulation problems that are associated with pregnancy, and might help prevent varicose veins as well.

I would guess they are on the low end around 10-15 mmhg. If you are looking for higher compression these will not be what you're looking for. I can tell you myself and girlfriend wear them everyday to work and for being on our feet 10 hour shifts neither one of us have any foot pain when getting home now after wear this product.

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 don't see why not. They are a knee high dress sock that offers compression. Many runners are using compression socks these days.

They stretch out more than regular socks, but I don't know what kind of material it is. I'm not diabetic, but just like loose socks, so they worked great for me. I ordered 5 pairs, but could use some more because I don't like to wear my other ones.

Edwin, First of all, I apologize for taking so long to answer. These were originally ordered for my husband, and were to small for him. I am female, stand about 6'. These are knee socks and in the large size, tight on my calves - enough so that I have had bruises. The compression is somewhat gradual up the sock but still quite tight at the top. Hope this helps.

Well sure, soccer players run in them all the time! If you are trying to use them as an inexpensive compression sock, no they wont work. They are snug but they do stretch too much. I wear a compression sleeve under these socks when I play soccer.

I have varicose viens that are med to bad on the top of my right foot..a few spider viens in both legs/feet. I have invested a baby fortune in compression socks & #1 I couldn't see they did any good #2 I'm not sure I'm even stron enough to get them on #3 they always irritate my skin, they sweat, they are impractical for daily wear. The TC stockings are compression BUT you can get them on, they don't cut off circulation @ my knees, they don't sweat, they are comfortable to wear all day and they control the pain & occasional clots in the varicose viens--I LOVE THEM, I don't think of them as stylish but with pants & tennis shoes I guess no one knows or cares. Hope this helps

I would say no. I am on my feet all day and I wear support stockings with a short pair of crew socks over them and that solves the problem. By the way, when I bought Miracle socks on amazon, they were not near as tall on the calf as the ones I got from Walmart. I don't know why that is, but they were and I couldn't use them.

According to the Thirty48 website, these are 15-20mmHg. Check out this link for more complete info: http://www.thirty48.com/cp-compression-socks-series-recovery-sleeve

Squats? I have worn mine during squats and they stayed up just fine. Not sure how much compression you're looking for. These are comfortable enough to wear all day (or sleep in) without being tight enough to cause my calves to ache by evening. I really like mine; they do exactly what I need of them.

I would say the ones I have are the thinnest of all that I have tried. They have plenty of room for the toes and heel. I love them. Finally found the compression sock that I like.
