The only negative was the price but if your feet matter, it's worth it. I work in nursing so I'm standing for 8 plus hours each day. I have tried many different brands some not great, some ok and these have been the best. A lot of times at the end of the day, other brands start cutting into my legs and I can't wait to get home to take them off but with these I actually forgot I had them on! I have some Sockwells and they are good too but these are great for hot weather. I will be purchasing more and I highly recommend ?I received this product today and laundered them according to the instructions. I ordered an XL. After air drying, the length from the toes to the heel shrunk horribly. When I tried them on my toes curled because the foot bed shortened so much. I’m very disappointed, especially because the fabric is so comfortable but for me they are unwearable.Best compression socks I have ever purchased!! The size was right on. They are so comfortable and stretchy.. I have a severe case of arthritis and it affects my hands. I use a sock donner to put them on. They are the easiest to put on the donner and then my feet. I wear them all day with complete comfort. I highly recommend these socks if you need compression for your legs. After going thru 5 pairs of other sock manufacturers I have finally found the ones I need. Definitely buy them!!Just perfect! I have been wearing 20-30 strength and I wanted to back off some and still get protection along with style. I ordered a pair of these at a price of $14.53. Today I am going back to order more and they have jacked the price up to $38. something. I will do without. Sadly.I like the texture, but found I liked the plain ones better. They are easy to put on IF you read directions! HA! They helped my legs, but found I could not wear them as long as the plain ones in my next review.Someone else wrote this also. It happened to me more than once, and I have several pair. So in the trash they go. I bought other brand compression socks that cost less and none of them had this problem of falling down the first day I had them on. I pull them up and within a short time they are back down. This badly makes a deep impression in the lower leg, and that can't be healthy. I noticed when unpacking how short these socks are out of the box. I think that is the problem. You can't keep checking all the time every day. I bought a pair of socks at Walgreens and they were fine, and no problem, also low cost.I like that they are easy to use. My mother loves the feel and the versatility. She also is allergic to nylon and they are safe for her allergies. She says they fit perfect and has bought many pairs.I love wearing these! Very soft and comfortable. Plenty of room in the toes. I’ve had others were the toes felt too tight. Great for everyday, long flights or road trips. The ribbed texture makes them look like a trouser knee high sock.Son muy cómodos y tienen la comprensión adecuada. Los uso todos los días y me siento de maravilla!!!El envío tardo un mes porque se atravesó navidad y año nuevo pero llegaron en excelentes condiciones. Los recomiendo mucho para las personas con problemas de circulación moderada.Me gustan estos calcetines porque son cómodos. La entrega fue antes de lo esperado.
