RiptGear Plantar Fasciitis Socks for Women and Men - Ankle Brace with Arch Support - Ankle Compression Sleeve to Reduce Swelling for Foot Pain Relief - (Medium) (Black)

When I first put them on I was concerned about how tight they were and thought my toes would go numb, but they never did! I started to feel tons of support and very comfortable compression. After a couple of days I could even walk on my hardwood flooring without slippers! I can wear them at night without discomfort and during the day under my socks with all but one pair of boots (they're very tight boots). It makes standing at work more bearable and planting my feet getting up in the morning noticeably less irritating.Also, I happened to be at the end of my recovery from tearing just about every ligament in my ankle and these sleeves helped ease the last bit of pain and swelling and allowed me to walk more easily while protecting the healing progress. Love them!

These socks do a very good job of relieving discomfort. They are very tight and hard to get on, but I guess this is why they work. Only 4 stars because of lack of instructions, I had to go back to Amazon to look at picture to figure out which way was up. The tightness of socks may have added to concerns on correct orientation. Bottom line is they work very well!

I have had plantar fasciitis for over two months, I have been to a podiatrist and got a cortisone shot in my arch. Much relief but the pain now moved to my heal. I do my exercises and that helps, the tennis ball, a frozen water bottle, however this sock gives me the most relief. I highly recommend it. I sleep in it and wear it. True to size. Don't expect to put sock on and that is it. You must do the exercises accompanied with the sock and you will get relief.

They work like they are intended to, but one size does not fit all. I thought I got the right size but I don't think it was meant to cut circulation off to the foot.

Very well made and very comfortable. Really help an old worn out ankle. Can wear it all day with no swelling.Used the size chart and fit is perfect. Wash really well with no loss of color, fraying or tension in the fabric.Excellent purchase

This sleeve is amazing in its support. I especially like the arch support that is built into the sleeve to aid in the comfort of wearing it and helping to resolve the problems the sleeve is meant to resolve. A good buy and I would highly recommend it.

These are well made, but I found them much less helpful than another brand I already had. They didn't compress nearly as well, and they were so long and loose in the foot (though I have the right size) that it was hard to get other socks on over them without them rolling up. Also, the top opening is not distinguished from the bottom in any way, so you have to figure out which is which every time you put them on, which is annoying and time-consuming. (The top opening is wider than the bottom one—but just barely.)That being said, the company is wonderful. When I asked to return them they immediately refunded my money. I would buy from this company again, just not this particular product.

Socks are not easy to put on. So if this is your first time, follow these instructions: "Roll up the sock and make sure the wide end goes over your heel and onto your ankle the smaller end should be towards your toes." It would have been helpful to receive these instructions inside the package. Washing instructions are given.If you have heavier ankles, maybe go up a size.I would have given 5 stars, but there are small threads or elastic on the inside that cut between your toes as you pull the socks on. I clipped tiny threads, but if they were stretchy I started over, not wanting to ruin the integrity of the sock. After owning them for a day, they seem to help the pain in my foot.
