Review on Travelsox TSS6000 Graduated Compression Performance Outdoor Recreation and Accessories by Daniel Steele

I wear them every day when I need socks. It is great. I would use a cold wash and NO DRYER. I think they will last longer. Hang them up after washing. They dry quickly. Well padded with high quality. Not too tight like some I've had which actually caused cramps in my feet and legs. They are slightly thicker than thinner nylon spandex types. If your shoes or boots (tall boot length) are already tight, get bigger shoes or just buy a pair to see if they match your existing shoes. If you know they are good, buy more. Make sure your toenails are smooth, otherwise over time they will stick to the material and puncture. I'm an orthopedist. These socks help with mild circulation problems, but if you have serious problems, consult your doctor. You don't want to think worse.
