Review on Graduated Copper Compression Socks For Men & Women Circulation 8 Pairs 15-20MmHg - Best For Running Athletic Cycling by Andre Stephens

Revainrating 4 out of 5

You get what you pay for

The good - these are REALLY inexpensive and easy to put on.The bad - these provide truly minimal compression compared to premium socks.I initially purchased a pair of very expensive (from a name brand manufacturer that claims to donate a pair if you buy a pair) compression socks labelled 15-20. They are a bear to put on, but they REALLY helped me to wear when traveling, which is something I've done lots of lately, both by car and plane.I didn't really want to spend a ton more money, so I decided to try these. They offer compression compared to a regular sock. Do they hold a candle to my expensive pair? Not in the least. If you don't need lots of compression, these socks may work for you. I intend to wear them for work. However, for travel, I'm going to have to bite the bullet and purchase more of the expensive pairs.

Pros
  • Comfortable and warm which helped in very cold airplane!
Cons
  • The socks may not be able to prevent swelling or edema in some individuals
