"When I wear them I can be on my feet for hours and don't notice any pain or fatigue, in fact my legs feel more energized and I want to be on my feet more."

"They both had their own plus s but at the end of the day the Blitzu socks were the only ones I didn t want to take off and my feet felt amazing... Literally felt like I was just wearing a tight dress sock that was made for someone 7 feet tall. Maybe you only need light compression and want something light weight, but for me I need it to work and my feet were trash at the end of the day.""The original review remains below: I am disappointed in this purchase for a number of reasons: 1 - the 3 pack I ordered includes 2 low and 1 knee-hi pairs; this is my fault for not paying more attention, but who the heck wants low compression socks?... Also, the socks come with "2 free downloads" (which I did not try to get) but again, this seems to have nothing to do with the quality of socks and seems an odd inclusion... 5 - The last (albeit minor) complaint is that all three pair of socks I got were different colors, combining red, white, pink, and black - I expected a bit more consistency but, again (as with #1) I should have checked this more carefully before purchasing."
"When I wear them I can be on my feet for hours and don't notice any pain or fatigue, in fact my legs feel more energized and I want to be on my feet more... I bought a pair of another brand, ending at the ankle; after a few hours I was horrified when I looked down and saw how much my feet swelled... They can be a pain to put on because they are so tight, but that's probably why they work so well, a small "price" to pay."
"I used to wear special hose but they were always uncomfortable and after a few weeks, I quit wearing them... I bought two pairs of these socks and I am going to buy a couple more. After forty-five years working in the kitchen, I can say my legs and feet have never felt better."
"I purchased one pair of these socks, based on a review and image showing a before and after of a swollen customer's foot. I have to admit, that I purchased the X-large and it did take me over 20 minutes to put on one sock on my dad's right foot ( feet looked liked Fred Flinstone feet)..... The next day my dad's left leg hand no swelling and his right was down to the size it normally is...."
"* I am gearing up for the NYC marathon, and with the increase in miles, there has also been an increase in pain coming from my usual shin splints. I always wear compression socks or sleeves while running and after my run, but haven't been satisfied with the four brands I have tried up until now, being pretty adamant that the right amount of compression would help me greatly... Other than that, I have already bought a few pairs and can't wait to run my marathon in them!"
"They worked, they helped the problem, but were thin and would tear when pulling on the socks... In addition the socks have good compression properties and do a solid job at reliving the swelling in my lower leg and foot. In fact so good, that I wear them 7 days a week, taking them off only to shower."

"* I ordered 3 different pairs of compression socks and these were the worst!... I will say they did their job and my feet felt good at the end of the day but I also couldn t wait to take them off haha!... They were sort of compressing when I put them on, but it almost felt like they were losing their compression strength at the end of the day... I really wonder if maybe I went a size down from their suggesting sizing if it would ve made a difference, but at this point I m sold on Blitzu... They both had their own plus s but at the end of the day the Blitzu socks were the only ones I didn t want to take off and my feet felt amazing... Literally felt like I was just wearing a tight dress sock that was made for someone 7 feet tall. Maybe you only need light compression and want something light weight, but for me I need it to work and my feet were trash at the end of the day.""Although I reached out to the vendor and they indicated they wanted to help, since I don't like the socks, they never followed through and now my window to return through amazon has closed... The original review remains below: I am disappointed in this purchase for a number of reasons: 1 - the 3 pack I ordered includes 2 low and 1 knee-hi pairs; this is my fault for not paying more attention, but who the heck wants low compression socks?... Also, the socks come with "2 free downloads" (which I did not try to get) but again, this seems to have nothing to do with the quality of socks and seems an odd inclusion... 4 - Despite my misgivings (see #4) I reached out to the seller about my dissatisfaction with the socks before writing this, I waited four days and have gotten no response! I understand a response may take time, but I feel like I should have heard something by now for me to consider it good service. 5 - The last (albeit minor) complaint is that all three pair of socks I got were different colors, combining red, white, pink, and black - I expected a bit more consistency but, again (as with #1) I should have checked this more carefully before purchasing. Overall, the reviews for this produce seem inflated and I do not feel I got good value for my money."
"When I wear them I can be on my feet for hours and don't notice any pain or fatigue, in fact my legs feel more energized and I want to be on my feet more. I suffer from some feet swelling, but not when I wear these, and for days after. I bought a pair of another brand, ending at the ankle; after a few hours I was horrified when I looked down and saw how much my feet swelled... When my son had some problems walking, I gave him a pair, and he loved them, so I bought two more pair for myself. They can be a pain to put on because they are so tight, but that's probably why they work so well, a small "price" to pay... ) I have some circulation issues, so I wore a pair on a four hour flight; there was none of the usual swelling or discomfort. I highly, highly recommend Physix Gear Compression Socks!"
"I have varicose veins and my legs and feet are fatigued after a long day. I used to wear special hose but they were always uncomfortable and after a few weeks, I quit wearing them. Last week, my feet started turning dark from the blood pooled and it scared the heck out of me so I decided to try a compression sock... Once you put them on and wear them for several hours, you WILL notice a difference... Instead of being fatigued when I get home, I feel great and my legs and feet look and feel much better. I bought two pairs of these socks and I am going to buy a couple more. After forty-five years working in the kitchen, I can say my legs and feet have never felt better."
"Recently due to another medical issue, he was placed on Predizone steriods and the swelling tripled in both feet and legs.. So much that his normal compression socks could not even make it over the foot. I purchased one pair of these socks, based on a review and image showing a before and after of a swollen customer's foot. I have to admit, that I purchased the X-large and it did take me over 20 minutes to put on one sock on my dad's right foot ( feet looked liked Fred Flinstone feet)..... I had to inch them over the feet, but I was able to stretch them over and up his legs. I was very impressed that these socks in length went all the way up to mid knee.... The next day my dad's left leg hand no swelling and his right was down to the size it normally is...."
"* I am gearing up for the NYC marathon, and with the increase in miles, there has also been an increase in pain coming from my usual shin splints. I always wear compression socks or sleeves while running and after my run, but haven't been satisfied with the four brands I have tried up until now, being pretty adamant that the right amount of compression would help me greatly. So I decided to try another brand.. and I am really glad I did I found these..... I do have one complaint- and that's that I am a size 6 1/2 with a pretty narrow foot, so the size S/M is big for a true size small... I push the material more toward the toe since I have a wide toe box on my Altras, but if my sneaker was more narrow, this would definitely be more of an issue. Other than that, I have already bought a few pairs and can't wait to run my marathon in them!"
"They worked, they helped the problem, but were thin and would tear when pulling on the socks... NOT SO, with Physix Gear Compression Socks... In addition the socks have good compression properties and do a solid job at reliving the swelling in my lower leg and foot. In fact so good, that I wear them 7 days a week, taking them off only to shower... I waited close to a month to write this review because I wanted to really check out the product... They do NOT cure my problem but give me a SIZABLE share of relief from leg swelling... I am motivated to write well of the product out of thankfulness for the people who took the time to create and bring to market, a product I now use daily that eases my suffering."
