Lily Trotters Signature Compression Socks

Great sox! Great for during a hike or after for recouping. Made for women, but work perfectly well for men. These socks are AWESOME! I am a larger male and I know these socks are made for women, but as a member of another website, I was given this product in exchange for a review. I tried these on after getting the largest size in black, and surprisingly they fit well. I used them as my sock liner for an 11-mile backpacking test hike and after an 11-miler the day before. They worked out all the… Full review

Lily Trotters Signature Compression Socks

Great socks for smaller feet that don't fall down or shift in your shoes Note: Occasionally, I get to test products for companies. I received these socks for free in exchange for a fair and honest review. I tested a pair of awesome compression socks from Lily Trotters. I received two pairs in size S/M, but only tested one. To be honest, they are so awesome, I didn't want to get the second pair dirty quite yet :) The Totally Solid Black were just that...absolutely, totally solid, in more ways than… Full review

Sockwell Ski Medium Compression Socks

Medium compression socks provide performance and quicker recovery. Merino wool and Alpaca for warmth. I have about 20 downhill ski days on these Sockwell ski socks so far and I really like them. I have tested both the Men's ski medium and the ski ultra-light socks in a medium/large size to fit my size 9 foot. Other than the thickness and a bit more Merino wool in the medium sock they are pretty much alike in performance. Both feature a seamless toe with extra padding under the ball of my foot. Heel… Full review

Sockwell Stabilizer 1/4 Sock

This sock helps provide foot stabilization during exercise. Moisture and heat management are handled through material and weave selection. Over the past year or so I have become very enamored with compression socks, having tested them skiing, biking, hiking, and backpacking. I have found them to provide benefits that make my outdoor activities easier on my body during exercise and allow for a quicker recovery. Woven from a combination of Cashmerino (a yarn made from Merino wool and Cashmere), Rayon… Full review

VIM & VIGR Nylon Compression Socks (20-30 mmHg)

Over the calf moderate compression sock helps recovery during and after exercise. Very thin fabric allows good ventilation. I am quite a fan of compression socks in general and find they are very helpful for recovery after skiing, hiking, or backpacking. They certainly help prevent swelling and muscle soreness in the calves after strenuous excessive. Since I always wear thin socks when hiking and backpacking I was anxious to try these Vim & Vigr compression socks. Constructed of nylon and spandex… Full review

CEP Dynamic+ Merino Short Cut Socks

CEP compression socks are high quality socks that provide a high degree of compression. CEP uses breathable natural merino wool fibers that guide moisture away from the skin surface and cause evaporative cooling. The design eliminates creases that can cause friction and blistering. The fabric is treated with an antibacterial process that reduces odor. Before ordering CEP socks I had to take measurements. This assures that the product fits properly in order to provide true compression. I measured… Full review
