Physix Gear SportPhysix Gear Compression Socks 20-30 mmHg - Men & Women - Running, Nurses, Shin Splints, Flight, Travel

I don’t take one flight across the Atlantic. I take many. Me and Forrest—flying back and forth like Heathrow’s unofficial mascot. While most people catch a bus, I catch turbulence. And somewhere in all that recycled cabin air and quiet existential dread, these socks became my lifeline.The Physix Gear Compression Socks don’t complain. They don’t whimper. They grip your calves like a loyal friend whispering, “I’ve got you.” Blood flow? Handled. Leg swelling? Denied. Panic? Lessened… marginally.They’re tight, yes. But they should be. They’re doing the work of a small medical team and a therapist. I pull them on before every flight like I’m gearing up for war. And somehow, standing in endless passport queues or floating through another missed connection in Chicago, I think: I will not die today. I have the socks.Five stars. One for each toe they protect. One day, they may just save my life. In the meantime, they save my legs. And that’s a hell of a start.

These are always great support stockings! If you have any swelling at all, they will help keep it down. They feel so good once you get them on. I have to rebuy them when I gave a couple pairs away, trying to get some of my coworkers to help their legs. I did have one pair that developed a hole on the underside of the heel. But this was after about 2 or so years. Then one that developed a small hole on the shin area. This, again, was after about 2 years. They are very durable and feel great! I've tried to get my sister to use them. But she struggles with trying to get them on and she definitely won't wear them during the day. IN the summer, they are easy to sleep with at night to get that support and swelling down. I would definitely recommend them. This is the 3rd time buying multiples of them.

I have POTs, I got these to help with the swelling in my feet and legs and hopefully assist my blood pressure. They've been doing exactly that! The fabric is firm yet stretchy, surprisingly unlike most compression socks after an 8 hour shift of being on my feet I still have the indents on my legs from them, but I don't experience the super itchiness that usually happens after wearing compression socks. The fit is PERFECT. Another issue I've experienced with other socks is my toenails hurting? Even when trying to keep extra space in the foot area, thankfully doesn't happen with these! Gorgeous pattern as well. Simple wash as well, I just throw them in on normal cycle/cold water and no issues.

These are my favorite, go-to Compression socks for travel. This is the 2nd pair I’ve purchased. I wear these on short haul flights (1.5 to 5 hours) and long haul flights (10+ hours) and my legs feel great, no swelling, no fatigue at all. I bought this 2nd pair for flights to France, and the UK and they didn’t bunch up, roll down or feel too tight but be sure to get your correct size so they fit comfortably.

I read the reviews and they suggested buying one size larger. I’m 5’11”, 205 pounds and I bought size xxL, they fit perfectly.The are a bit difficult to take off which I expected, when putting them on I found the work well after they come up to the ankle it’s best to pull up slowly and not to much at a time, that way the compression doesn’t pull and end up coming above the knee. After they are on the compression works as they should. Compared to the more expensive compression socks I have used these are a very good value.They are actually even a little more comfortable.They don’t roll down and they are also machine washable and dry-able. We’ve washed them a couple of times and have not have any issues.

Amazing support! Besides the top where my ankles are they’re a a little tight, they’re provide great support and I’d size up! I have wide calf’s and feet and I’m a size “7” in women’s. I’m still able to move comfortably though. But if you want to avoid the weirdness around your knee maybe a size up? But it could be that I have chubby calf’s lol I’ve recommended them to my mom and plan on buying some for my son since he’s in soccer and upping his fitness routine!!

These are the best compression socks around. I am an RN in a busy hospital and I’m on my feet all day. These socks keep just the right amount of compression on my legs to make the shift go smoothly. I have several pairs of these socks and I highly recommend these if you’re on your feet like am. They go all the way up to my knees. I’m a male about 6’1” and wear a size 13 shoe. I got the large size and they’re perfect. Try a pair and I guarantee you’ll love them. Oh, and they hold up wash after wash, too.

These are incredible! I just started wearing these two days ago but I could feel the difference immediately. Every summer my right leg tingles and aches at the end of the day. I'm a very active 40 year old woman with a few small varicose veins. While I've never considered that I might have circulation issues, I thought it wouldn't hurt to try compression socks. I am 5'8" tall, 140 lbs and wear a size 9 sneaker shoe. I purchased a size L/XL and the fit is perfect. They are very snug to put on, but they provide excellent compression around my ankle and calf and they go all the way up to my knee cap. When I wear this sock on my right leg, I have no pain or discomfort at the end of the day, which means I can get that walk in after dinner, or ride bikes with my kids to the park. I haven't tried to wash them yet, but I'll update when I know their long-term performance.
