Sturdy socks -- tips for POTS
Good socks, sturdy, comfy, and they wear well. I bought these for compression to aid with POTS-like symptoms (associated with dysautonomia). Not a lot of guys who are wearing this stuff for that reason, so here's some tips guys.Even though this product is one of the better ones I've tried, I hate comp socks because they are hard to put on and don't compress as much as the calf sleeves do anyway. If you need heavy compression, buy the calf sleeves, they are better. I hate the Doc Martin calf sleeves because they bite me hard by the end of the day even in large. Rymora leg compression are my second favorite pair, with Graduated Calf Compression Sleeves by Thirty48 coming in first (also bought in medium), though they are so close it's pretty much a tie. I'm a 225lb 5'11'' dude with pretty big calves, and mediums are TIGHT on me, but wearable all day. I also like the BLITZU Calf Compression Sleeve Men Compression Sleeves for Legs since they don't bite me much either, but they also compress a bit unevenly and not quite as tightly (I also bought those large, not medium, so that makes sense). They haven't worn out much in 9 months, but they do stretch out if you wear them a lot (I wear mine all day every day)Don't put them in the dryer since that wears them out a lot faster. I really noticed the difference in the ones I put in the dryer.

They Work Very Well
I fly a lot and have worn the Hylaea Knee High Compression Socks 20-30 mmHg socks on a number of international flights. They work. I have worn them for 5 hr and up to 16 hr flights. My legs, ankles and feet do not swell. They have enough compression to do the job and feel comfortable. I dont fly without them.

A little too tight
I know that compression socks need to be tight to do their job right, but these were TOO TIGHT. I struggled to get them on and then felt like I was being squeezed all day. I have many other pairs to wear that keep my edema in check but are easier on/off and more comfortable to wear all day.

Pleasantly Surprised on how cool they feel
I am an avid MTB biker and I also work from home so I sit a lot. I’m also 50 and I have varicose vein’s forming around my ankles. So I decided to give compression socks a try.I researched many socks and I chose this brand because it was made with 4 different materials but mainly for the Coolmax since I want to use them while biking.I must say that these socks feel as if you had an AC vent blowing at your legs. I have been wearing them at home and they feel amazing. Good amount of compression and long wear comfort. I have not felt the need to take off the socks during the day since they are so cool and comfortable. These are very well made with quality materials. Just like most compression socks, they are difficult to put on but worth the struggle. I have a 16” calf and the Large fits great. 💯 recommend

Inconsistent sizing
I ordered the s/m three times. The first time they fit perfectly, the second time they fit so tight I could barely get them on, the third time they fit way too big. I feel disappointed because the first pair helped with all the foot and leg pain I experienced from standing all day, now I can't get more.

These feel great
I've waited a month of using these before I wrote this review They're fantastic; the quality is very nice; the pressure that's applied is very nice and the application meaning getting it on your foot and over your heel and up your leg; it's a well-constructed compression sock and the pack of three is absolutely worth the investment

Massively Uncomfortable
I have other compression socks from more well-known vendors (i.e. Jobst) that do the job well. I knew what size I needed and they did fit my feet and calves well EXCEPT they were killer-tight at the very top. After a full day of wear I had deep welts below my knees that were very sore. I washed them a couple of times but the top band did not loosen so after a few days I tossed them in the garbage. I'll go back to the expensive top brands.

Works
I truly love these socks. I’m on my feet most of my work day and these socks keep me together. My legs don’t feel as tired as they used to. Compression is on point and I can’t say enough about the foot portion of the socks, cushiony to say the least. Easy to get on/off. Would buy them again.
