FlexAdapt Plantar Fasciitis Compression Socks for (1 Pair) – Compression Sleeve for Achilles Tendonitis Relief, Plantar Fasciitis Relief, Foot Swelling - Gray - Large

Love, love, love these. They are smooth on the end, with no seam bump, which is great. And they aren't too tight around the ankles, which is a problem I had with another brand.I actually own 12 of these, 8 for day use and 4 at a larger size for night. I walk a lot, so the actual size provides a lot of support. However, they felt a little tight at night, maybe because my feet are elevated. So I just got a larger size, and it works.I am a shoe size 13 and I got the Large size for during the day and XL for at night. My arch circumference says I need a Large.

This was wonderful for a problem ankle when I was no longer in a boot and the wraps were too bulky and uncomfortable in shoes. Pressure is gentle but sufficient and feet felt energized. Also, I am small and wear tiny sized shoes; the small size was perfect— not too big.

Edit:The pair I bought November 22, 2023 is what the below review is for. The pink pair I got in my January 6, 2024 order is not the same quality. It's very loose and slides down my ankle and up my foot. Basically it bunches around my ankle area. I'm constantly pulling it back into place. It's frustrating to remove socks and shoes constantly to adjust. Based on my experience and looking at the reviews, the quality has changed.---I have plantar fasciitis and own two pair of these compression hose. They are wonderful to wear every day all day. I forget I have them on. They help with the pain and I feel more secure. My ankles also like to roll. The pay don’t help that, but it doesn’t happen as often. Maybe because they secure the rest of my feet and tendons?My shoe size varies depending on the make and cut of shoe. Most are sized 9.5, particularly my sneakers. I bought the size large and they fit nicely. Probably a little loose if I wanted tight compression, but I just wanted a light compression sock. I hope this helps someone.

I received the compression socks on Saturday when I got home after an art event (and I was in some added pain due walking and carrying heavy boxes — loading up a car with boxes and walking back and forth and up flights of stairs and down flights of stairs). So when I saw the package had been delivered, I immediately put the socks on, and I’ve been wearing them consistently since then (five days now) — throughout the day and into the night. I don’t think I can give a complete evaluation yet because I haven’t worn them that much, but I will note what I can for now.First of all, I bought them because I have a sharp pain in my left heel, and I’ve been limping and favoring my right leg. I have had the pain for about two weeks. It just happened one morning when I got out of bed. The pain was there. I’m sure it has to do with my flat feet and me wearing flat shoes and being in stocking feet more than in proper shoes, etc. But with flat feet, you just sort of live with being uncomfortable. And I’d rather be shoeless than be confined in shoes. I cannot think and be creative with shoes on. Anyway, I’ve never experienced a sharp pain in my heel. Feels like I am stepping on a sharp stone. The day it happened, I still went about my business and walked on the treadmill at the gym, but the pain only increased afterward. So I decided to take a break from the gym and rest this foot as much as I could. But it’s kind of difficult when you have a dog to walk and things to do…. But the pain has been with me (only when walking). One of my friends who gets this said I should try orthotics, but I have tried those in the past (years ago), and I cannot walk with those in my shoes without tears coming to my eyes (the pain from orthotics is worse than the pain that I’m trying to fix). I thought maybe I would try them again — maybe technology and new designs made them better since the days I tried them. As I was looking for orthotics on Amazon, I came upon the compression socks. These got high ratings on Amazon, and the comments were helpful, and they were priced right for a test. I didn’t want to spend a ton of money only to test something that would not work. I don’t have money to waste… But I’m in pain enough to try something.Here is what I know so far.* The socks fit well (I wear a 7.5 women's shoe and my feet are more narrow than wide). I don’t even know the socks are on my feet, and they stay put, and they are not bulky, so I can put socks over them and wear shoes. Love that!* I like that the socks look sporty — they don’t look like something that is used to treat an ailment. I think psychologically that helps because it’s not a reminder that I’m treating something that’s painful.* I put the socks on and pretty much right away I was not limping. The sharpness of the pain has definitely subsided (not completely but enough not to limp or wince). I’m not sure how these socks are doing all this, but they are. It’s almost magic that I can get this much pain relief with a sock that has a thin fabric on the heel where the pain is and tighter fabric around the rest of my foot.* I am hoping that just by alleviating the pain and letting me walk better, I will be able to get on with my life and this pain will go away for good. Also, if I’m not limping, I suspect that I will avoid any additional hip pain and back pain. I find that whenever pain crops up like this, it always takes about a month or two to go away — no matter where it is. Usually it’s my knees. And then one day, I’ll realize that I don’t have any pain. The body will heal itself somehow. I suspect that these socks may speed up the process. These socks seem to be helping so far. I’ll no doubt end up purchasing a second pair, so I’ll have a pair available when the other is in the wash.

I had high hopes for these. I suffer from plantar facitis and bought these as an alternative to insoles and shoes that aren't helping. I do enjoy the general compression but don't find they help as much as I'd hoped. I'd walked all day at Disney recently and wore these after. My feet did feel pretty good the next day (but I'd also worn these at the end of the day as preventive measure bc my foot wasn't actually bothering me much) but since then, I haven't noticed any relief wearing them. However, there is something about them that is comforting, even if they are not specifically helping my pain.

Comfy and not too tight but do the work to protect my ankle
