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 can only guess, because the compression is not given anywhere online or with the socks. They feel like a 20-30 compression to me... that's the best I can tell you.

Yes they are but not the kind of compression that requires 2 people to put on & off. I bought large just becaue I didn't want to deal with that & these really fit the bill, they give support, they give relief & best of all I can actually put them on myself & they don't cut off circulation @ the knee cap. I love them, they are not PRETTY, but they do the job & I would never take a long trip by car or plane without wearing them & they don't make your skin sweat or itch. Highly recommend

Yes, there are compression tubes. This is a very, comfortable and functional product!

Yes. In my opinion when I wear the compressions, I feel more secure. I feel my legs are supported as I run. I do not feel overly compressed or too tight. I wear them for every run and love the feel. Definitely recommend.

My personal opinion would be "no." It is a fairly light weight, compression sock. A little extra support on top than some. But basically...holds sides in. I have used many...before, and after major surgery. I work on my feet for twelve hours a day, in steel toed work boots. I use compression socks to keep my foot support...even just a little. I would doubt it would support something enough...as serious as drop foot. Hope this helps.

No. there is a seam on the toe section. However, the socks are thick enough that I had not even noticed until I saw your question.

I found out the hard way. It is only one, so I had to order a second one. That being said, they are a unique type of compression sock that is worth having around. I would buy my "two" again :)

No, I don't think this device will work for you. I don't wear compression socks but a friend of mine does, and he needs assistance daily to put them on. I bought this because I have trouble (at 67 years of age) of touching my toes and have had difficulty every day putting on my wool socks - this certainly makes the chore much easier.

I had not thought of them as compression socks, but in a way they are a light compression because the upper sock retains its hug on your calf nicely, unlike some discount socks that stretch out quickly so you have to tug them up your leg and back in place after a while. The foot portion is not as 'huggy', but it holds its shape and position on your foot nicely. They are very comfortable!

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.

No, these are not very thick. They are the most comfortable socks ever but wear out very quickly. I have a 100 UA items and these don't meet their normal wear standards.

Not really. My husband wears these over his compression socks and actually wears two pairs so that they stay up. They are a good buy for the $$. They are not too tight at the top which has always been a problem for him.

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".

If you are used to wearing compression socks you could size down. If you are not you might want to size up until you get a feel for what level of compression works best for you. I wouldn't size down if you are planning on wearing them for extended periods of time.

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.
