Built for a calf that regular compression socks cut into. Standard socks are knitted for an average calf and then stretched over everything else, which is why they roll down, leave a band, or feel like a tourniquet by lunchtime. These are knitted wider from the start.
Bamboo viscose
Softer against the skin than the usual nylon-heavy knit, and it breathes — which matters when the sock is on for a full day and your legs are already warm and swollen.
Who these are for
- Anyone whose calf measurement puts them outside standard sizing
- Legs that swell through the day and change size between morning and evening
- People who have given up on compression socks because every pair has dug in
Measure before ordering
Measure around the widest part of your calf, in the morning before swelling sets in, and check that against the size chart. Calf circumference matters more than shoe size for fit.
Before you buy
If you are diabetic, have peripheral arterial disease, or reduced feeling in your feet, ask your doctor before wearing compression. If a sock feels numbing rather than supportive, take it off.
