FUTURO Dress Socks for Men, Large, Black, Firm (20-30 mm/Hg)

Provides good reliefWhen you wear the socks daily you’ll notice that you need them oftenDidn’t find any better option though

These socks are great. I work on my feet. I used to work through the pain and ignore the swelling. Now my days are much more enjoyable and the swelling is not an issue. Yes, they are hard to put on and it does take practice to get it right. It is not supposed to be easy. These are not normal socks. Graduated compression means that the strongest compression is at the ankle and it gets weaker from there on up. That is how they work, and they do work! For the first week or two I had the heel way up above my ankle and the socks seemed to be about four inches too long. That is because I was pulling them up incorrectly. You can't just grab these socks by the top and pull them on. Follow the instructions on the package and practice, and be patient. You will get it. I actually discovered that I prefer it when they are pulled up just a *little* too far as the compression seems to be tighter that way. I just fold the excess down into a cuff below the knee. By the way, my calves are 16.5" in circumference and my legs are about 17" from the floor up to the bend of my knee. I ordered the Large and they are a great fit. I am a weightlifter, so my calves are much larger than my ankles, but I still get plenty of compression at the ankle.I have lymphedema from a car wreck years ago, and these socks really help to control the swelling in my feet and ankles. If you have lymphedema there is no cure, only therapy, and these socks were exactly the therapy I needed. If I am on my feet for more than a few hours in a day I often add an ace bandage on the leg that needs the most attention. That completely controls the swelling. I only mention all this because 20-30 mm/Hg is an orthopedic level of compression, so I hope other shoppers might find these details to be helpful.

Se las compre a mi mama y a ella le gustan mucho pues tienen la compresion adecuada para sus piernas.

Have been using these for a few years. Very effective

I have been searching for a supply of good quality men's support socks at a more reasonable price than my local pharmacy and I was pleased to find these. They were a good fit , promptly supplied and washed well with the supplied instructions.

Good value, comfortable to wear. They hold position well and do not slide down. A longer foot would be ideal for those of us a bit longer of foot than normal Durability will not be known until some time has passed. As it is, would recommend them-pending future problems should they develop
