Review on Dovava Dri-tech Compression Crew Socks: Ultimate Comfort 🧦 and Circulation Boost (4/6 Pairs) - Say Goodbye to Blisters! by Jim Booth

HORRIBLE. Absolutely TERRIBLE. There are so many things wrong with these socks that I don't even know where to begin. First let me say that I have both knee length compression stockings and ankle length compression stockings. The amount of compression I need is negligible. 99% of the time I only need to wear ankle compression stockings, but I wanted lightweight compression stockings that didn't reach the knee. Based on the reviews I thought they would fit. Wow, I was wrong. As for the design. The logo/backside marks were misaligned. The socks looked twisted. IDK over all four pairs. I only looked at the first pair I pulled out. Even when I tried them on on .no they were twisted from the factory. In the same direction. WHY do these generic companies put their stupid logo in a prominent place?! IE flashed on top of the sock. It's not a coveted brand and if you want to wear it with shorts it looks silly. Yes, I knew it would show when I ordered them. The photos of the socks don't really show how silly it looks. And I'll be the first to say IF these socks were great it might not matter much. I still think it's stupid, but not that stupid. These socks are no thicker or better than the over-the-knee socks I made as co-shoe covers. 8 pairs for the same price as 4 pairs of these. Sure, they're knee length, but MUCH better. These socks are neither thick nor sheer. I would say they are probably average for a compression sock. Consider a thicker sock. As for the compression. Well I just tried them BUT I will say they should never be called compression. I have regular athletic socks that offer more compression than these. I'm not sure how they can say 15-20mmHg because it isn't. As for sizes. Let me say I'm a woman. However, I'm also a big tomboy. IF a 54 year old woman can still be considered one lol. And that's why most of my shoes are men's shoes. I find them better constructed and better worn. I wear 11 for women and 9 for men. This is completely normal, as women's shoes are always two sizes larger than men's shoes. At least in the US. Therefore, their size chart is confusing at first. I mention this because if you're a woman who only goes by the size chart, they're going to fit you even worse than they did me. They are extremely unusual. As mentioned, I have a size 11 for women and 9 for men. My feet are neither wide nor narrow. I'm also 6 feet tall and weigh 135 pounds. My inseam is 37 inches, so it's safe to say I'm not trying to cram 10 pounds of shit into a 5 pound bag. The sock was too long. what it should have been. So if you have a smaller foot size, you will be huge in the foot area. Being crew socks I expected them to be a little lower or at my calf height. Judging by the pictures it should have fallen. And since I have long legs, I expected them to be a little shorter. No, these socks went about mid-calf on me. A very strange place for her to end. And they were tight at the calf. Unlike the ankle area, where there should be compression but there wasn't, the calf band was very tight. And the widest part of my lower leg is 13 1/2 -14 inches. Again, not big at all. Another shortcoming is that they initially cut without prolonged wear. To be honest, these socks could win the Worst Designed Socks award. They will definitely be sent back. Save time and money and look elsewhere. I know that I am sigh.
