Review on Premium Women's Hiking Socks: Breathable Boot Socks with Anti-Stress, Moisture-Wicking Germanium & Coolmax Lite-Compression - Get Comfy on Your Adventures! by Daniel Mandal

I did not order these socks for hiking but mainly for home as a substitute for slippers. They are nice and thick on the balls of the feet, the heel and along the Achilles tendon - all places where blisters often occur when walking or hiking long distances. I also noticed that they offer very good compression from the ankle down. Due to my age and desk (computer) work, I have problems with foot/lower leg swelling at the end of the work day; I usually wear knee high compression stockings to reduce swelling but I have found that wearing these socks keeps my feet and ankles in good shape. As a final bonus, the colors are very pleasing and match the photos.
