A bit snug, but I adore the colors
As a runner and someone whose job is occasionally very active, I've used a variety of compression socks to alleviate any foot/knee/back pain. When I saw these, I adored the variety of bright colors and snapped them up.<br /><br />I've had socks that had very weak compression; these are not like those. In some ways, I found them a struggle to get them over my chunky calves, worried I would rip or tear. Fortunately, they did not, but they were very stretched.<br /><br />I'm 5'6", size 9 foot, so the foot itself was fine and the sock went to just below my knee. I've struggled with my weight for my entire adult life, so my calves are pretty chunky, even though I do run quite often and have maintained a fairly consistent weight for over a year. For my body type, it can be hard to find socks/skinny jeans that fit my calves. For other people, these might work great.<br /><br />Regardless of the tightness, I LOVE the colors. I am all about the vibrant, wild colors.<br /><br />I would definitely be cautious buying these if you have thicker calves. Otherwise, they are really good, and I'm glad they do have some decent compression.
