I am a Nurse, and on my feet for 12+ hour shifts. My legs and feet hurt so much when I get off. I have varicose veins from years of being on my feet. I have started developing edema in my ankles, so my doctor recommended compression socks.
I'm not going to lie. I ordered the Mubasel Gears compression socks because (1) I was given an opportunity to review them, and (2) loved the neon green socks with the red dots! How cool are they? !!
I was not expecting much, as I have purchased multiple pairs of compression socks, and have not like them for various reasons. Either they crawled, rolled down, stretched out of shape, were too thin to do much compression, etc. I was very pleasantly surprised with these compression socks.
The socks arrived quickly, nicely boxed. Even right out of the box, I could tell the quality was different. I washed them in cold water, in a laundry bag, on gentle, then laid them to air dry, before I wore them.
These socks are made differently than others I've had. The back of the calves is more of a mesh-type pattern. The ankles are more of a compression-type. After wearing them for a 12-hour shift, my legs still felt good, and my feet didn't hurt as bad. I really was surprised by this.
In comparison, I wore a different pair the next day, and my ankles were still noticeboard swollen when I got off work. Even my husband commented, and told me to throw the others away.
The socks fit perfect on my feet, but are a little long on my legs, or maybe I am pulling them up too much. I have to fold the top down about an inch. I am 5' 6", and ordered a size Large. Other than that, I have no complaints about these compression socks, and will be ordering more.
