All that up and down causes hose to want to pull down which can be annoying not to mention having to pull them back up ...
I work at a big box retail store and am on my feet 6 - 8 hrs a day on concrete.  At the age of 53 the concrete was causing my legs to severely ache.  Then I remembered something about how nurses often wear support hose to help with their legs.  With my job, there is a lot of squatting, kneeling and sometimes sitting on the floor.  All that up and down causes hose to want to pull down which can be annoying not to mention having to pull them back up every time you go to the rest room; which can be quite a task during the summer months.  So I got on amazon and started looking for something better and found the compression socks.  I had forgotten about them.  These work great.  The compression is just enough to keep my legs from aching (only from the knee down ached -- not my thighs).  They are not hard to get on, but it can be a little difficult pulling them off.  But once you've worn them a couple times they start to loosen up and pull off easier.  I usually wear them under my regular socks -- especially during winter to keep my legs from getting cold.  In my work environment you don't wear dresses, so the knee high compression socks are perfect.  I am constantly on the move, in the store, and they do not slip down.  I have more trouble with keeping the regular socks up.  Compression helps with my legs -- absolutely no more ache.  A lot of people will not consider compression hose or socks because they associate that with old age.  But hey, I am old, and I choose not to suffer unnecessary discomfort.  I have a lot of energy and have always moved at a quick pace; these socks help me to enjoy my job and maintain the high energy life I am used to.
