As an avid sports competitor. I am training about 6 days a week majority of it requires a great deal of running and cross training. I started feeling a constant tightness in my calves. After week of trying everything I was fed up and sore, and read about compression support socks and figured I would give them a try at one of my training sessions and sure enough after my first use of the CW-X Compression Support Socks the pain in my calves subsided. I swear by them now for soreness and use them while training once or twice a week and have no more problems with soreness.

I must be too short for them (5'2"). I cannot stretch them up completely so they feel better if I fold down the top. Whether folded down or not the top elastic is too tight and hurts, leaving a red, achy mark, after my 12 hour RN shift. Otherwise, I would like them. They have certainly held up after many washings.

A pretty good compression sock. I wear it around the house after long runs. I\'m sure you could run in it as well, but I do not run in compression socks. Fits true to size.

These are great for recovery in working out. However, they are a bit on the tight side. I would go one size up if anything. I wear between a 7.5 and 8 and these were a bit tight for me. However, they really do help in recovery from working out! Awesome!

I must have skinny calves because I do not find these tight at all. Foot bed sizing is fine. Maybe since they are unisex sizing it allows more for a man's calf. Nice socks, but not sure they are going to give me the support I was looking for.

These are interesting, but I do not believe the product does what it claims. I wear medical compression wear and these are the same. I do not think they are properly graduated.

I didn't like these at all. When I put them on, they looked like old-man socks. Not sure the socks made me perform better or ease pain. I run just as well without them.

I have been running for a moderate amount of time and never thought that technical gear such as this would help all that much. After running a half marathon my legs were in agony for days. I started looking into compression gear and decided I would try these socks. I will never go back. These socks do everything they say they do. I never run without them. They keep my legs feeling great no matter how far I run. A must have for serious runners! CW-X makes incredible items. Looking forward to purchasing more soon.
Brands I'd also recommend: 2XU, ASICS

Should've gotten a medium. These are way too big even with size 13 feet. The material is very thin too. I like the 2x-u's better. They almost feel like just stockings. They look cool though.

Received the socks and when the recipient (Xmas gift) opened the package there was a hole about the size of a small finger near the top of one sock. Called Zappos. They were very helpful and as they were now out of stock and I was in Canada and had the sock delivered to a hotel on a visit to the US they credited my credit card without even returning the defective socks. Excellent customer service. Product rating irrelevant as item defective and not worn.
