EvoNation Men’s Knee High 8-15 mmHg Graduated Compression Socks – Mild Pressure Compression Garment

A little easier to put on and give good compression.

I have bought many kinds of compression socks and I rate these as the best. Especially noteworthy is the pocket for the toes. Very comfortable. Highly recommend. I have seven pairs.

Bought these for my husband as we were flying from Florida to New Zealand. He says they are the most comfortable compression socks he has worn in 15 years! I will be ordering a few more pairs for him.

Compared to other brands of mild compression socks I've tried, these do not stay up on the calf when walking around. As they slip down, compression goes from mild to light to nearly none. These might be okay if you are mostly sitting.

For me the important factors are...-Comfort (not constricting in the foot, and at a good calf height so it's not lower on the calf and too tight, or higher up and bunching up behind the knee)-Material (breathable so I don't get too hot with long socks on, elastic and comfortable yet seemingly very durable, good stitching so that there is no fraying or tearing)That's basically it for me... I don't need very much compression. As I said, I've been looking for a long time for a pair like this that might take the place of some Dr Scholl's stockings I have (that have lasted me a long time with consistent use). They changed the material they use now and aren't as elastic and are thicker as well. However, these seem to fit the bill and I'm really glad to finally have found some.The one thing that bothers me is the price... if these hold up as my previous pairs have, then it's worth it.

My husband really likes these socks. They are light weight and comfortable. He doesn't want to wear another brand. They are a bit of a challenge to put on though.

I've had a couple pair that I've worn for over a year and they have not worn out and still retain their elasticity. Would definitely recommend. I wear them with my dress clothes.

My husband originally bought a pair (different brand) of medium gradient compression hose. They were so tight we were only able to get them on one time and they didn't solve his swollen feet issue. Because I have worn compression hose, and understand about the varying compression gradient (he bought the first pair without mentioning it to me), I purchased this pair with the lowest compression possible. They are perfect. His swelling was down in one day (after weeks). They are also good quality and go to the his knee. Granted, he has very skinny legs so if you have larger legs, you might want to buy a size bigger.Like any compression hose, you must know how to put them on - which is NOT like a pair of socks. If you DO NOT know, ask someone who does to show you. Otherwise you will think these are too hard to get on - and it's not fair to give a bad review for a good product that you may not understand how to use.
