"I am the type of person who keeps trying one brand after another to try to find the "best", so I've bought many different types of compression socks... After verifying that my first good sock was purchased with the seller listed as SB SOX but my reorder (the counterfeit long sock) was purchased from another seller, I returned the second... I was so incensed that a counterfeiter would steal the business from someone who had worked hard to develop a great product, sell the inferior knockoff to unsuspecting Amazon customers and that Amazon would allow it!""Tonight I did not teach my fitness class with them on because I only have one pair and knew I d need them after my hour and a half class. I was in pain walking after class but came home, put these socks on and BINGO, immediately relieved of my pain! I have ordered two more pairs, but know I need more considering the amount of classes I teach plus work a full time job on my feet daily."
"I've had excruciating pain in my feet for so many years never even knowing what plantar fasciitis was until very recently. While the pain has lessened over the years (I now work at an office instead of standing all day at a retail store) my feet still ache after certain activities (dance class/long chores/lots of walking around the city)... So the only thing I don't love about these socks is, because I have pretty thick ankles, the top band is overly tight."
"Although I can still feel the "stiffness", I no longer wake up needing to grab a hold of the bed post, then the dresser - while I adjust to the pain and make my way to the kitchen for coffee... Until then, I am enjoying movement again without needing to stretch after long periods of sitting in a chair, no longer hobbling around waiting for my foot to stretch out... I'm holding out on that final star until I complete a workout that really tests my plantar fasciitis and the compression socks."
"Still need to do the exercises and care for my foot for it to heal, but can walk more without being in such pain... Had not walked without shoes so was not sure how that happened... I can't say for sure the product was defective, but they took care of it immediately."
"I didn't measure my foot/arch like they recommend you do for sizing, but I feel like my foot is pretty normal (not too high, not too flat) and ordered the M size (I wear a 7... I've had the socks for a few weeks now and can tell a difference when I DON'T wear the socks... I will say, one night I woke up to a pain in my foot and had to take them off because a nerve or circulation was irritated by the compression."
"I have also been told by the expert that mapped out my feet for custom orthotics that compression sleeves would help as well to keep the blood flowing in the proper area and bring relief to my heels and balls... I didn't even know how that could've happened considering all I have been doing is walking around the house apart from the short 10 minute walk outside... After wearing these for that amount of time, I have been feeling like the underside of my injured foot is trying to split, like it actually aggravated plantar fasciitis."

"I've purchased 3 pair so far, and now I'm wearing them every day... I am the type of person who keeps trying one brand after another to try to find the "best", so I've bought many different types of compression socks... I emailed them, and Sam was awesome getting back to me immediately and explaining that the longer one was a counterfeit... Unfortunately Amazon's system was automatically listing the counterfeit seller as the default seller (because of a 1 cent lower price), even when you just place a reorder purchase! After verifying that my first good sock was purchased with the seller listed as SB SOX but my reorder (the counterfeit long sock) was purchased from another seller, I returned the second... SB SOX Customer Service is so dedicated to keeping customers happy that they even offered to send me another pair free to replace the counterfeit version... I was so incensed that a counterfeiter would steal the business from someone who had worked hard to develop a great product, sell the inferior knockoff to unsuspecting Amazon customers and that Amazon would allow it!""My pain has been so bad it hurt to walk, but I can t be still I have two jobs and am a single parent. So I had been using about 2-3 rolls of KT tape weekly just to ease the pain. I couldn t afford PT again right now because my insurance will not cover that... My son said to me that he couldn t believe I was waking better, but he saw I was, plus I was not angry because I wasn t in pain! Tonight I did not teach my fitness class with them on because I only have one pair and knew I d need them after my hour and a half class. I was in pain walking after class but came home, put these socks on and BINGO, immediately relieved of my pain! I have ordered two more pairs, but know I need more considering the amount of classes I teach plus work a full time job on my feet daily."
"* While I don't love that I just spent $15 on one pair of socks, I will say it was worth it. I've had excruciating pain in my feet for so many years never even knowing what plantar fasciitis was until very recently. While the pain has lessened over the years (I now work at an office instead of standing all day at a retail store) my feet still ache after certain activities (dance class/long chores/lots of walking around the city)... I've had these for one day and I could feel the relief as soon as I put them on... I also like wearing them right before bed. So the only thing I don't love about these socks is, because I have pretty thick ankles, the top band is overly tight. I don't mind the pressure at first but after a couple hours it becomes too uncomfortable."
"Two days before my compression socks came in I started using KT tape for therapy... The tape would not stick well around the foot arch and had to be reapplied both mornings... Although I can still feel the "stiffness", I no longer wake up needing to grab a hold of the bed post, then the dresser - while I adjust to the pain and make my way to the kitchen for coffee... It's comfortable throughout the day and at night when I sleep... Until then, I am enjoying movement again without needing to stretch after long periods of sitting in a chair, no longer hobbling around waiting for my foot to stretch out. I've given the socks a four star rating - only because it will not allow me to issue a four and a half star rating. I'm holding out on that final star until I complete a workout that really tests my plantar fasciitis and the compression socks."
"I am being treated by a chiropractor and know it can take a long time to heal... Several days later, I can still say my feet feel better with the sleeve than without... Still need to do the exercises and care for my foot for it to heal, but can walk more without being in such pain... Had not walked without shoes so was not sure how that happened... I can't say for sure the product was defective, but they took care of it immediately... It is not two tone with the lighter color but solid and more like the heel in the picture. Wore this morning with sandals and slacks and they were not very noticeable."
"When I was at the running store recently, the salesperson recommended a similar looking sock and said others had had great success with it..... I didn't measure my foot/arch like they recommend you do for sizing, but I feel like my foot is pretty normal (not too high, not too flat) and ordered the M size (I wear a 7... I didn't feel the relief immediately as some of the reviews stated, but I could feel a huge difference after the first night, as the most painful step is first thing in the morning. I've had the socks for a few weeks now and can tell a difference when I DON'T wear the socks... I haven't run in them yet to see if they help with pain after running 10+ miles. I will say, one night I woke up to a pain in my foot and had to take them off because a nerve or circulation was irritated by the compression. But it was a one-time occurrence and the relief far outweighs that one night."
"I have also been told by the expert that mapped out my feet for custom orthotics that compression sleeves would help as well to keep the blood flowing in the proper area and bring relief to my heels and balls... First day, I thought they felt amazing, I even bragged about them to my husband. Second day, the same, even though I was having a nagging pain in my ankles I ignored it, thinking maybe it was on account of my feet stabilizing differently and not being used to it... They cut into my ankles so badly and restricted the movement of the tendons in the front that somehow or another led me to have shin splints! I didn't even think this was possible, but after being in the verge of tears last night as my husband massaged my burning shins, he said straight away, "you have shin splints". I didn't even know how that could've happened considering all I have been doing is walking around the house apart from the short 10 minute walk outside... After wearing these for that amount of time, I have been feeling like the underside of my injured foot is trying to split, like it actually aggravated plantar fasciitis."
