Shock Doctor Compression Socks Calf Shin. (1 Pair) Pain Relief, Recovery, Shin Splints, Achilles Tendon Stability and Support. For Running, Football, Basketball and more

These provide the best variable compression of any I've used. I keep coming back to them. Only downside is for the price they often develop holes in the toes within a 4-8 months. Not every pair but some.

bought a size five for my dad and a three for me. he has lukemia and i have had many injuries to my lower legs. we both get really cold really easily and our legs just ache. these things, bought on a whim one day, are teh answer to a lot of our problems. he notices his swelling has gone down. i notice my legs actually recover after a day of walking around or sitting in the car on a long road trip. if you're thinking about getting them, just do it. they are worth it in every way. and they help keep your legs warm which helps the muscles recover faster. and they are so comfortable.

They were not very thick material. I guess they would be good for the summer but I didn't feel like they gave much support. I'll give them a test run at work Sunday. Working as a Pharmacist I'm on my feet standing in one place for an extended period of time so I may revise my review after that.

I will say these are the most expesnive compresion socks I have purchased. But, they are also the only ones which stretched enough to help with my swelling due to meds. Some other brands were labeled as LG, but I could barely get my hands in them not to mention my feet. They do not provide a lot of ankle compression, well on me anyways, but they do help overall.

I’m on my feet and running around the hospital all day!!

this is my second pair and i love them! just a word of ... advice ... you don't need to yank them up ... as long as the heel is in the correct spot and you pull them up so that it covers the calf, you are good too go! (i yanked them up, had about an inch of 'excess' and that really hurt all bunched up under my knee - especially in the back - so don't do that! LOL)

As you see on the picture, I ordered the one on the left (the longest one almost reaching to the knee) however, I got a different product. Still the same company but not the same product. Quality still very good, but due to being a different product it don't fit the same!!

Developed a whole in big toe after 3 wearings.

Suffered with shin splints for years. First pair of compression socks and very happy with them. No shin pain and worn everyday they are taking the hammering on off-road trails. Can't comment on any other brands but I'm very with this purchase.

This is probably one of the least expensive alternatives to the compressions socks sold in running or drug stores. It's supposed to be for recovery, but I wear this while running. The difference between compression and recovery socks is not very well explained?

They were quite a bit expensive but they sure did help me to improve my recovery time. Make sure you get the good size
