Great compression, short foot
I have bought, and returned, 10 pairs of compression socks and sleeves: inadequate compression, weirdly thick material, padding...  I need them for ankles that get swollen and painful when I do 12,000+ steps day after day while traveling.<br /><br />These feel completely different, the way I expect graduated compression socks to feel. I haven’t worn them long (just delivered), but as soon as put them on, I felt the difference. HOWEVER I just ordered the Women’s Dress Compression socks and will decide whether to keep these when those arrive. I ordered the other socks because:<br />- My feet are a size 7 / 38, a full size below the top of the range for a Small. The length is barely adequate and the toe material seems like it might compress my big toe. I don’t know if they’ll be a problem when worn. My other compression socks have extra room at the toe to avoid this. Small on the Women’s Dress Comoression goes to 8 1/2, so it should be better.<br />- I’d prefer even thinner socks without the grey details.<br />- the arch support feels a bit tight - and I have B width feet.<br />Toeless socks tempt me, but it sounds like they’re thicker and have other issues. Sigh.
