Bluemaple 7 Pair Compression Socks for Women and Men, Compression Ankle Socks, Regular wear, Fashion wear -Say Goodbye to Your Pain(7pack-S/M)

NO compression here. I have been wearing compression socks (knee high, both 15-20 and 20-30maNy compression strength) daily for more than 7 months and have gotten very comfortable with and dependent on the feeling and effect of true compression on my feet, ankles and calves. I only actually need the compression on my feet and low ankles, so am looking for socks that will be comfortable where I live once temperatures soar and I get sweaty in the late spring and summer months, which is why I tried these. I am female, 5'4" , 110lbs and wear a (womens) 7-7.5 size shoe, and I have found with the knee-high compression socks most are a little tall (no biggie, I either pull them over my knee or fold down a little at the knee), and a little long (again, manageable - just a little extra fabric past my toes). But these shorter socks, though sold as "S/M" just like the knee-highs, are HUGE, there is over an inch of extra fabric past my toes, no way I can squish all that in most of my shoes, and the few pairs I can it is really uncomfortable. BUT, the more important downside is they give NO compression AT ALL. In fact, the socks are really soft and flimsy (a red flag, compression socks generally are more substantial than others), and you cannot feel them on your feet at all - they give LESS compression than ordinary crew socks. These are a big disappointment, don't waste your time or money.

I have been having very painful ankles and top of my arches, and just above my toes. My Dr. suggested compression socks. I have tried them and they felt like rubber bands after awhile. I went on line and found these. I figured if they didn't work out for me, my daughters would use them as they are on their feet a lot. WELL, they didn't get them. I can not believe how much they helped me. No pain all day. When I take them off at night, I do get a slight ache, but no pain. These fit and compress exactly where I need them to. I am going to reorder. If you are having problems with your lower foot, ankles down these socks are just wonderful.

I love the fit and the vibrant colors. I am on my feet a lot during the day and traditional socks were biting into my flesh by the end of the day. My feet feel refreshed all day and don’t feel tired. The socks come in a variety of colors. Good value for the money. They wash well. I line dry mine. My only complaint is that the royal blue pair looks like something has chewed on it. There are holes in the material. None of the other colors came that way. Of course it’s my favorite color. If it hadn’t been for the 1 ruined pair I would have given a higher rating.

There is too much fabric around the toes… In the width. It bunches up. If I pull it up so that it’s not all bunched, then the heel pulls up past my ankle. FYI… I take a Womens shoe size 8-8.5 M and bought the small/medium socks. If you have a very wide toebox, and long toes, this may not be a problem. Otherwise the sock would be five stars… Good compression, material and colors. Maybe they need to offer a small, medium and large sock. And they should taper the toes like most peoples feet.

Bought these for my daughter who is a CNA and needed some ankle support and was unhappy with calf-length compression socks because they were too hot. So far, so good. We washed them up right away and she’s been wearing them for 10-12 hour shifts and feels her ankles are better off than they were with regular socks. She likes the colors and the fit is good. We ordered the S/M for her as she wears anywhere from an 8 1/2 to 9 1/2 depending on brand of shoe. The L/XL would have been too big. I should add she has narrow, flat feet.

I like the look and feel of the socks. I also like the colors. I ordered size small/medium and they are too big, which I don’t like. I don’t like that small and medium are sized together.

I wear 8 1/2 women's and the S/M were too big. They help some but less compression than I expected - I think as too big so looser fit. I have a pair of higher tighter compression socks that help a lot more for pain relief from torn knee and feet/ankle soreness related to the injury but I wanted to try a lower height sock like these. Comfortable and light and I think would be great if fit better.

I would have liked a bit more compression. I wear a women's 7 and purchased the small. They ran a little big but nothing terrible. I guess because they are unisex. Very good value. I haven't washed them yet so I don't know how they will hold up for the long haul but overall satisfied.
