Physix Gear Short Compression Socks for Men & Women - Best Low Compression Socks Women & Men Ankle Socks with Arch Support

I get swollen ankles from venous insufficiency . I use compression socks or sleeves nearly every day. I wear any of them: full socks, toeless socks, ankle sleeves, crew socks. But I had yet to try low cut socks. Seemed kind of suspect given that the swelling is usually at the ankles. But I circled back to these because I am curious, and I like sharing my thoughts in reviews.In short: they work, and work really well. The material goes up the ankle a bit, so in that sense they are longer than I prefer for a low cut sock, BUT I feel like I am more "free" compared to wearing a full sock. They really do look like how they are shown in pictures.They are thoughtful in design. Easy on, easy off. Soe extra interior threads where color changes. Not significant. No toe nail snagging.I have size 10/10.5 womens feet. Usually I buy size 11 as I also have wide feet and the little added length accommodate my feet well. So I chose sizing based on that. SO, size 11 in womens is size 9 in mens. Yet they list the size nine in mens as size S/M, but also is indicated in the range for L/XL. Yet for women size they give up to 8.5 (which is 10.5 in mens) for S/M and starts at 8 (size 10 mens) for L/XL. On my feet these fit with room to spare. If need extra compression and you are on the cusp of either size, then go smaller. I just ordered a couple more pairs, and went with the size I originally went with since I noticed that my ankle swelling was down well enough to not want to go smaller. But I likely could. Maybe I will order a smaller size just to see how they fit.As with ANY compression garment, do no wash in hot water or dry in dryer if you want to maintain the compression level. Heat destroys elasticity, therefore decreasing the effectiveness.

I have been a consistent customer of this sock brand for about four years now. When I started getting ankle swelling my doctor recommended wearing compression socks to help. I wanted compression socks without the hospital look. So I went on Amazon and found these socks, and ever since I ordered one pair I never went back to other brands. I love their color options, the firm compression, and the feel of the ankle socks. With consistent wear, they are always comfortable and incredibly durable I would recommend these to anyone with swelling issues, looking for everyday wear, or traveling sock needs!

Too thin and slip in shoe when playing tennis. I have to wear 2 pairs of shoes

Oh, toes! I wear compression socks for plantar faciaiitis. These socks have the lowest level of compression of the 3 sock styles I use. The advantage of these socks is toes! I don't need to wear another pair of socks in cold or during regular walks. I will buy again.

Not sure how I feel about the appearance but they work to keep the circulation moving in my legs! I have minimal pain, swelling and discomfort when using these socks.

I like the targeted compression on the foot. I’ve recently bought several pairs of compression stockings/socks and these are the best. I’ve had reconstructive surgery on my foot and swelling is a problem. Stockings work OK, but don’t target foot so much. I’ll buy these again.

Just to hard walk around cutz into my ankles

I ended up giving these away because I couldn’t get them on. My feet are wide but these are basically made for someone with narrow feet that don’t swell up.. right idea, wrong sock.

muy satisfecho

Great socks but expensive.

way too. small for a man's size 10, fits my girlfriend size 7 feet...

These socks are a bit pricey for what you're getting but are made well and good compression.
