I’m an ICU nurse working 13-hour shifts on concrete floors. Usually, by 4 AM, my legs feel like they’re throbbing. Most "wide" socks I buy on Amazon either snap at the top or roll down and cut off my circulation. These stayed up the ENTIRE night. No rolling, no pinching the back of my knees. They are a bit of a workout to get on the first time, but once they’re on, it’s like a soothing hug. My legs actually felt "light" when I walked to my car this morning.

I was honestly ready to return these before they even arrived because nothing ever fits. I have lymphedema and my legs swell badly. These pulled right up without me having to wrestle them for 20 minutes. The top band is wide enough that it doesn't create that "muffin top" look on my knees. I wore them to my daughter's wedding and stood for 4 hours straight. For the first time in years, I didn't have to go home early because of leg pain.

Second time ordering. I wash them in a mesh bag and hang dry—they hold their shape perfectly. Much better than the expensive ones my doctor tried to sell me at the clinic.

Just got back from London. Usually, after a long flight, I can't even get my shoes back on because my feet are so swollen. I wore these the whole way. They are breathable enough that my feet didn't get sweaty, but the compression is legit. When we landed, I could actually see my ankle bones. I'm 5'3" and they were a tiny bit long, but I just folded the top down an inch and they were fine.

The socks themselves are 5 stars—soft, easy to put on, and they actually stay up. However, it took 8 days to get to me in Florida. I wish they arrived faster, but now that I have them, I’m ordering the 5-pack because they really do help with my varicose veins.

I have terrible arthritis in my hands, and I usually can't grip compression socks well enough to pull them up. These have a different feel to the fabric—it's "slidier" if that makes sense? I can get them on without help from my husband. They don't itch like the cheap nylon ones.
