TechWare Pro Plantar Fasciitis Socks - Ankle Compression Socks for Women & Men. Achilles Tendonitis Brace & Foot Arch Support

My Achilles tendinitis had started to come back and my heels were hurting. I didn't want to end up in a boot again. A brace is just bulky in my work boots when adding it to a sock. I am on my feet 8-16 hrs a day!! These socks are amazing!! I have already bought 2 pair in 3 weeks. They fit great. Feet don't get hot. Lasts the whole day no matter how long I am on my feet! Plan to buy a pair at least every time I get paid until I have a whole weeks worth!

I have a lot of problems with my ankle tendons - all of them. Braces get uncomfortable and don't fit in shoes well, arch sleeves end up leaving blisters on the front on my ankle, KT tape helps a lot but over the course of a work week I'm still in a lot of pain by day four and then there's the matter of the adhesive itself. Even adhesive that my skin is okay with will still get irritating after a period of time.I got a pair of these (small, black/blue) to wear on the fifth day, when pain is at its height and it's generally a busier day as well. Using these in conjunction with MyTape KT tape (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MRYKN05/ref=twister_B072XC5QVC?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1) helped more than I expected. For obviously reasons socks are not going to have the same support as a brace with hard inserts or one made for athletes, but even those only help so much and I find them very uncomfortable to boot.I found the combination quite helpful, the socks are very comfortable with nice seams that don't bother me (I'm sensitive about those things). I'm on the smaller end of adult shoe sizes, so no pair of socks fits perfectly, I always end up with the heel somewhere on the back of my ankle, and my only other option is to have material bunched under my foot to have the heel in the correct place. That is also mostly true of these, but I can get it closer to correct because it's tightly woven and I don't have the bunching problem.I have found that I need to keep my toenails both short and smooth, because any snags catch easily when putting them on. It also helps to put them on the same way you put on pantyhose or stockings.On washing, I have been putting them in a lingerie bag to wash with the rest of my socks (best way to not lose socks) then hanging them up to dry. If they hold up well over time I will get a few more pairs, not just for work but also for around the house or sleeping. I find in my case they help much more with the ankle tendinitis than my plantar fasciitis even with taping for that.UPDATE 7/13/21 - Changing from 4 star to 5 star; have proven quite durable.I have bought enough pairs to have a pair for each workday, and as a cashier I spent a lot of the pandemic year busier on my feet than ever. Every pair I own is at least a year old, with the oldest pair being a little over two years old. I hand wash them, as recommended, then hang or lay flat to dry, then put them in a UV sanitizer. Yes, I have had some of the elastic threads snapping, especially in the oldest two pairs, but there are so many that they have not lost their support ability. I can tell the slightest difference in pressure from the oldest to youngest pairs, but I think most people would not (I'm really sensitive to these things). The only problem I have with them is being hair magnets, and it takes some work to get all that out when I wear them on carpet (my kid and cat shed at alarming rates). I do wish they were a bit more "seamless" as that bothers me at times as well, but on the whole I really can't complain. They're still doing their job so that I can continue to do mine.Update 2/1/22: The toe seam on my first pair gave out last week. So I got a year and half of wearing and washing once a week out of them. Not bad in terms of lifespan. I see there's a cushioned version now, so I'm going to try a pair of those as a replacement.My most recent pair, the grey/black ones - I don't know if changes were made or if it's specific to this color blend, but they're not the lint/hair/fur magnets that my older pairs are.Update 2/17/24: The second pair I bought (black/pink) has gotten threadbare on the heel. I have 7 pairs and am still handwashing them. The pink/white ones and beige ones are also not fur magnets. The new blue/black ones I got are not as much fur magnets as the pair they replaced but not as resistant to fur as the grey ones. They are easier to get on than the first pair was, made a little bigger overall, but retain the same support. I like this improvement.

I have tried the open toe ankle compressor socks and the wraps and found them too bulky because I have to wear regular socks with them. So the “pros” are that these can be used alone and do help my weak ankle. The cons: They are tight therefore a struggle to get on, the heel area is very thin, I have to hand wash them, and they are pricey.

These arrived today! I wear a 6.5/7 Medium Women's shoe size & I ordered the size Medium. When first attempting to put on, I thought, oh no, are they going to be too tight but then easily slipped my foot in & they felt great instantly! The compression pressure is just right, not too thin or too thick, just right! Oh what a relief!Thank you for a great feeling, pain rel ieving pair of compression socks!!!3/10/24: Would you please consider making arthritis gloves from this same material??? It would be great if you did & I'd be first to buy some! Thanks TechWare Pro for your consideration in making some arthritis gloves from the same material!!! Would be at all others hands down!!! Please, please, please!!!

Seem nice quality, but got size for an x-large individual foot, and were still way too tight.

Product is excellent my husband has feet pain and these socks are helping him he actually likes themGreat value for the money great quality and comfortOk

I have had a broken ankle since December. My doctor recommended getting some compression socks. I ordered these because they were short and I didn’t want them going all the way up my legs. They are amazing. My ankle feels so much better. It is cut down my swelling quality is wonderful the thickness is just right. It gives great compression and helps. Keep the swelling down in my right ankle. I highly recommend this product.

I'm someone with flat feet and suffer from foot fatigue fairly quick. I had a Disney park trip coming up, and as some of you may know, that comes with a lot of walking. Trying to think ahead I ordered these. They definitely helped me get through those 3 days at the park. They hugged my feet just right and offered a good amount of support. If you have flat fleet like me and/or suffer from fast foot fatigue, give these a try!

Effectively reduces swelling and restores the foot to its normal shape. Hand wash in lukewarm water with mild soap, and let them air dry. They are highly comfortable, but consider ordering one size up, as they have a snug fit.

Los usé para un viaje por avión de 11 horas y fueron muy cómodos los calcetines ..no me apretaron.

Muy buen soporte, ya no me duele el pie al caminar

Justo lo que buscaba, los uso para jugar pádel, tuve un esguince en el tobillo izquierdo hace unos meses, y ocupaba algo que me reforzara, muy buena calidad.

They are comfortable and do help my feet. They are quite difficult to get on and quite tight at the opening. They do cut into my leg a bit by day's end. I am hoping with washing, they will soften and stretch just a bit. I bought the size according to the suggested sizing chart.
