Doc MillerDoc Miller, Open Toe Compression Socks, 8-15 mmHg, Toeless, Support Circulation, Shin Splints, Calf Recovery, Varicose, Knee High, Medical Grade, Skin/Nude Socks, Large Size for Men & Women, Pair

These are the first compression hose that have ever done it all! The open toes are fabulous - much cooler & easier to get on & off. the 8-15 is just the right pressure. I wore them using my rowing machine & they gave perfect support while being very comfortable. They look fine and not like armor. As a testimony I just ordered ten more pair!

I'm new to compression hose and am trying different brands to see if there is one that checks all the boxes. So far, the Doc Miller "Skin" color is probably the best for fair skinned people. Other brands are much too dark or olive to look natural. In addition, they are relatively easy to put on and stay in place. They are a little tight at the top but loosen up during the day. The toeless foot creeps if you put socks over them. Therefore, I just use toe socks to prevent that. They may be too hot when summer weather returns. But, they are an excellent and well made sock and prevent my legs from swelling while being comfortable in cooler climate.

The socks are the correct width, they fit snugly and are comfortable to wear all day- but they come over my knees so I have to fold them over which is kind of weird since it’s right where my knees bend and I don’t really want extra pressure there. I’m afraid a M would be too tight but if I decide to reorder, I might give that a try. Note that I’m 5’10” so not a short person.

I love the open toe aspect of these because I didn't want the extra compression around the toes. I had tried a set that stopped at the ankle but found my edema still impacted my ankles so wanted the compression to continue further. I also love the fact they come in a variety of colors, planning to get a set in black soon especially given how reasonably priced they are.I love the level of compression as I did not want the higher strength compression - they can still be a challenge to put on, but I suspect that has more to do with my "flexibility" than anything else - the biggest thing I had to learn was to "grab" them with the toes of the other foot to pull them off as once they are on, they want to stay on. :) Probably the only downside I see to them is how they compress at the bend of the ankle, but I believe that has more to do with the fact that it is a bend so the material can naturally gather there a bit, compounding the compression.I did find my toes would get cold during the winter months and putting socks on over caused the compression socks to roll a little - found if I grabbed the covering sock and pulled the compression back down to flatten it out it then stayed in place and worked fine. I do like the fact that they help keep my legs and the part of my feet they cover warm when they are on.I've been pleasantly surprised at how well they have worn considering how often I wear them without shoes since I work from home - I thought the heels might wear out fast, was even concerned they would run like hose, but they have stayed in excellent shape despite the "abuse" I put them through.I would recommend them for anyone looking for a light weight level of compression.

I wear size 12 women’s shoes. I bought a size medium according to my calf size on the chart. The sleeve shrinks away from my toes and down my calf after a short time. I bought these to wear with my walking boot for a broken fibula on dr advice.I’m not sure the next size up will be any better. I’m going to contact the manufacturer to see which size would work better.If you have a more normal foot length to calf size ratio, they should work great. They are very comfortable and easy to put on.

I bought these to wear after my knee replacement surgery. They were perfect! I liked the open toe

Fits well.

These don’t feel like 8-15, could be a little tighter compression. However, the right one came with a hole in it so i am returning. They run a little big but i will probably order a replacement.
