In my search for the wider understanding of compression gear and whether this is just another marketing ploy, I have purchased a pair of white Oxy Socks from Twin City Knitting. I must say, compression socks are not the most fashionable gear out there, it takes some courage to wear these.
The Oxy Socks offer a comfortable mesh material and a good cushioned foot. However, although my pair fit my size 11 feet well, then have a tendency to drop down. They are far from tight and I don’t get a firm compression from them. My advice: avoid these and go by a pair of compression socks at the pharmacy.
Verdict “Gadget or Product”: Gadget
