Review on πŸ”‹ Optimized Low Cut Compression Socks by NEWZILL: Enhanced Results by Omar Svagera

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Upper ankle too tight otherwise good sock

I bought these socks because I needed a low cut sock for forefoot swelling after surgery on my metatarsophalangeal (Big Toe) joint. I also wanted a sock that looks normal for everyday use. I don't have any swelling in my ankle or calf and in fact I have very thin ankles and calves. The foot area of the sock fits well, provides ample compression and is about as comfortable as compression socks can get. However, the upper part of the ankle area is too tight. It's so tight that I can't wear the sock all day. Most people my size have large ankles and will have even more problems. This also works against compression stockings as they tend to trap the liquid you are trying to push up. One more note, the material is thicker and therefore hotter than another brand I've bought, which is an issue in our current 90 degree weather, but not with fall coming. Conclusion: I wear socks, but for the next pair I will buy another brand.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Legacy model
