Comfortable and helpful

I don’t have plantar fasciitis but I do have fairly severe nerve damage that causes my feet to occasionally swell and creates a burning sensation that occasionally makes it hard for me to even walk. I’ve tried a bunch of different things looking for relief, from topical creams to herbs to compression socks to prescription medicines. I don’t have health insurance anymore, so my options are limited. This is the first time I’ve had something over the counter work so quickly to bring me relief!I…

Pros
  • Not perfect, but they do offer some support for foot pain so for the price they aren't bad...
Cons
  • These make my feet feel like they're being strangled!! I threw them away....

Better than initially thought

At first my husband and daughter tried putting these on her feet. It was a no go. I actually started a return based on the fact my strong husband couldn't get them on her. Later I was looking at the and noticed if I rolled the ankle portion down the heel stuck out like a tongue. So I called my daughter over and tried myself to apply them. Worked like a charm. She uses them for tumbling and cheer. Gives her plenty of support . Also she has sensory issues and these do not bother her.

Pros
  • I wear the socks when I wear my sneakers to walk In. I find it helps with the pain.
Cons
  • May cause discomfort during extended use

Miracle socks for me

For some reason, I started having plantar fasciitis after I started working at home during the pandemic. Under my heels felt like they were on fire when walking and at night. Ibuprofen didn't help and I dreaded the idea of going to a doctor and ending up with a boot or physical therapy appointments. I had a couple of pairs of these socks in the drawer that I'd forgotten about and put them on last night when the pain got worse than normal. The relief was immediate. Not entirely gone, but…

Pros
  • Leg & Foot Supports
Cons
  • May not be able to cure plantar fasciitis entirely

I used them for off lable purposes

I purchased these after I had foot surgery and I had a lot of swelling around my normally skinny ankle. My surgeon told me to buy compression socks but I couldn't find any that didn't go all the way up to the knee. Since my swelling was only around the top of my foot and my ankle I brought these. They helped some but I think I should have purchased a smaller sized for what I was using them for. I also have thin feet.

Pros
  • It did what I bought it for…
Cons
  • Comfortable i wear them every night. After being on my feet all day. They give me relief of pain

Well made foot pain relief

I got these to help my sore feet. I am on my feet as a teacher's aide a lot and when I get home I am often limping. I got these to help with morning pain and so I could wear my cute socks again. I found that they work great during the day either alone or under my crew socks. They keep my feet from hurting so I can do all the things I need to in the day like grocery shopping and picking up kids, too. Wearing them at night was comfortable but only helped with the morning pain of plantar fascitis…

Pros
  • Health & Household
Cons
  • May not be comfortable to wear with certain types of shoes

Very comfortable as compression socks.

Full disclosure, I do NOT have plantar fasciitis but I did buy these as compression socks for my swollen pregnant feet. I’m a 9.5-10 narrow US shoe size and normally have thin, bony feet but feel like my feet have gone to a size Wide or bigger with swelling, so I got a size large. These socks slide on and off easily, leave my toes free but compress my feet and ankles and have worked like a charm. Don’t feel itchy or uncomfortable, and seem to breathe pretty well even during the summer. I’ve…

Pros
  • The swollen ankles and pain are gone no more pain at the end of the day or after walking.
Cons
  • Like very much helps my arch

Why didn’t I try this first!

I have suffered from plantar fasciitis for months. I’ve got over $1,000 invested in inserts, a sleeping boot, special shoes etc. I ran an 8k on Saturday and had to use crutches on Sunday it was so bad. Someone told me about this sock. I ordered it and it arrived today. I ripped open the package and threw on the sock.Within two minutes the pain in my foot disappeared. I mean it was GONE! My family was amazed that I wasn’t hobbling around like a 90 year old woman with a cane. They were all…

Pros
  • They really give you support, it's helped my feet from hurting.
Cons
  • May not fit all foot sizes properly

The best! - my new review

I have tried so many different versions of these and I cannot say enough about the difference that this brand makes! I injured my ankle and Achilles and these have been so incredibly therapeutic and restorative for both my ankle and Achilles. As long as I am wearing these I am without pain and my ankle is repairing itself on its own. I am not even taking pain relievers anymore and the more I wear them the less pain I have while sleeping though I take them off while sleeping. I downsized for…

Pros
  • Easy to wear under work shoes
Cons
  • May not provide enough support for those with overpronation or supination

More colors Please!

I wear these socks daily easy to care for dries fast. They are a little tight at the top but everything else fits well. They really do help. Wish there was more cushioning in the heel to help the spur

Pros
  • Suitable for both men and women
Cons
  • May not provide enough support for standing or walking on hard surfaces

Very comfortable support to relieve pain

Just the right amount of support! I have a few different brands of compression sleeves and these are the most comfortable. I can wear them all day, others I have to take off after a couple of hours because they're just too tight. I have Achilles tendonitis and plantar fasciitis in my left foot and these really help relieve swelling and pain.

Pros
  • Designed to stay in place throughout the day
Cons
  • May not be effective for those with flat feet or high arches

Caused more pain best in my review

I had high hopes for this based on the review I read. Sadly I was rather disappointed. My plantar fasciitis has gotten so bad that getting out of bed in the morning is a battle involving steeling my nerves up to endure the pain I will encounter when my feet touch the floor. They went on with a little bit of a struggle, not unexpected for compression socks, but not that hard to put on. At first I was pleased with the firm support I felt instantly! But about 5 minutes or so in, my left foot…

Pros
  • Can alleviate pain and discomfort associated with plantar fasciitis
Cons
  • May not be suitable for those with sensitive skin

Helps keep ankle in line

I like that it does stay in place and not roll back. When feet are swelling sometimes it's a little too tight and I have to remove them.

Pros
  • Can help prevent foot and ankle injuries
Cons
  • May cause sweating in some users

Took care of swelling & pain in ankles!

I've bought these so many times! They reduce swelling on my feet from standing at work all day. When you first try a product like this you may need to go slow and try them only for a couple of hours a couple times a week because the compression can feel uncomfortable if you experience a lot of swelling. But after breaking yourself in, they are so wonderful! I never have any aches in my feet and ankles anymore!

Pros
  • Can be worn for extended periods of time without discomfort
Cons
  • May not be effective for those with severe heel spurs

Good support.: my feedback

I mostly need support at the ankle since it is held together with plates and screws. These socks did just that. I had to take a star away for the lack of color choices. Loved the open toe

Pros
  • Provides targeted compression support for plantar fasciitis, swelling, and heel spurs
Cons
  • May not alleviate pain in all cases

Saved my life for my opinion

I never take the time write reviews. BUT I have tell you that I LOVE my miracle socks (this is how I call them) just overnight, I woke up with Plantar fasciitis in both feet. It was the so painful that I couldn’t walk. I started researching and came cross this socks. I ordered them and arrive next day. once I put them one, I was them able to walk again with lesser pain. I sleep with them on and literally next day. I didn’t have anything. like nothings had ever happened. My friend who suffers…

Pros
  • Can be worn day or night
Cons
  • May not be easy to put on and take off

Weird heal stitching

the heel stitching is weird to me. I got a size large measuring my arch at 9 1/2.now my ankle hurts not helping May not be suitable for those with skin sensitivities or infections!

Pros
  • Can provide relief for those who struggle with standing or walking for extended periods of time
Cons
  • May not be suitable for those with skin sensitivities or infections

Good support, thin material, but great pressure

I wear size 7 shoe and have smaller ankles. These sleeves give me good support while I'm running around on my feet doing chores in my sandals. They offer the perfect amount of support at the gym, too, and thin enough to allow me to wear socks as well when I wear my gym shoes. The compression factor, even after all day wear, remains constant. 💯 Recommended.

Pros
  • Designed to fit a range of foot sizes
Cons
  • May not prevent future injuries or pain

They work! good for me

So, I started having heel pain last October. It just got worse and worse and some days I could hardly put any weight on my heels. I tried heat, cold, pain creams and didn't see any difference. After a couple of weeks of wearing these socks (I just wear them while sleeping) I hardly feel any pain at all. I was skeptical but these are amazing.

Pros
  • Affordable alternative to custom orthotics
Cons
  • May not be effective for those with bone or joint issues

Good pain relief good for me

Arch and support for healing broken bone in foot was good. Two days of use and I can walk almost pain free again. That's my feedback!

Pros
  • Gives immediate results for pain relief
Cons
  • May not be able to provide enough arch support for some users

Good for Neuropathy

I have neuropathy in my feet and even with medication, sometimes my heels will ache badly. This usually starts in the evening when I sit down to watch tv so I put these on. After wearing them for an evening I then can go without them for 2-3 days and then I'll wear them again for the evening. I'm very happy with the results. Sometimes I find them too tight around my ankles and I'm thinking I should have purchased the next size up, so just an FYI.

Pros
  • Can help improve overall foot health
Cons
  • May not be helpful for those with underlying medical conditions
