The best part is that the socks stay up without feeling like they are cutting off my leg. I have worn them for hours at a time with no problem. They are much more comfortable than the pair I had before.
The fabric is softer than I expected for compression socks. They feel breathable and not like the thick medical stockings I used years ago. Best of all, I can get them on without needing someone else to help.
The extra flexibility makes a big difference for me. I can get them over my heel without asking my husband for help. Once they are on, they stay in place nicely.
I wore these while working around the house, grocery shopping, and cooking dinner. They stayed comfortable the whole time and did not slide down. My legs still felt supported at the end of the day.
I spend a lot of time on my feet and wanted something comfortable for the afternoon. These feel supportive without being overly firm. They are also easier to remove when I am tired at night.
