Great quality at a reasonable price.
Years ago I purchased a pair of compression socks after hip replacement surgery. They were expensive and I did not use them very long as they were difficult to put on and uncomfortable. Now that I need to wear them daily, I searched for something better. Looking at the SBS sock, they were reasonably priced so I purchased a pack of 3 pair. I was very impressed with the quality and ease of putting on. I have since purchased 3 additional packs and am very pleased.

Value and comfort combined
I am in my late seventies and require support stockings. For many years I bought J___ stocking. They were expensive and did not fit me very well. They had a problem bunching up around my ankles and causing pain. I took a chance on the SB socks. That was ten years ago and I have never looked back. The socks are contoured to fit and they do fit. They are more comfortable than my old socks. They also last longer and keep their stretch over time. Did I mention they are about one third of the cost of the J___ socks? All things considered I think a dollar spent on these socks is equal to five dollars spent on the popular J___ brand.

The White Socks Are Noticeably Smaller And Uncomfortable To Wear
As other reviews have mentioned, if you buy these in the color white, expect them to be small.I bought two versions of these, one set of white and the other set of nude/beige, both in the L/XL size, and they clearly have the L/XL label stitched on the inside of them too, so it’s not like they shipped me the wrong size or anything.I tried the nude/beige color first, and I figured the reviews might have just been exaggerating, or that wearing them was not going to be a big deal.Directly comparing the two however, the fit on the white ones is considerably smaller: they don’t reach as high up your leg, they bunch and wrinkle up more around the ankles, and the toe area is too cramped to the point of discomfort due to the smaller size.I had no issues with the nude/beige color ones. They fit very comfortably and well, and aside from the usual issues of these kinds of socks, where you need to remove wrinkles as you put them on so they don’t bunch up, it was a good fit and the size was right. They work well even for long periods of wearing them, and I will continue using the nude/beige versions, and may even buy more of those in the future since the price is affordable.However, I would not recommend the white ones, or if you absolutely have to buy them in white, order a size larger than you need. I haven’t tested this myself, but I would hope going a size larger would be enough to compensate for the smaller fit sizes, and still perform as expected.For reference, I’m used to the TruForm brand of athletic style compression socks, and these SB Sox by comparison are closer to a dress sock style. They’re more slippery to walk in, vs. the TruForms are more like a typical cotton sock in look and feel, thicker and with more padding, and not slippery at all. They’re also double the price of these SB Sox however, so there are pros and cons to both, certainly.While I probably won’t be buying the white color of SB Sox again, I am interested in trying out the other, more unique colors. But I’m also a bit leery to do that, since I don’t know if they will have the same issue as the white color, or if the others are going to be more like the nude/beige color that actually fit properly as advertised.I tried washing and wearing the white SB Sox a few times, convincing myself that they’d loosen up a bit with time or start fitting more comfortably, and my return window came and went in the meanwhile. But each time I tried to wear them, they remained uncomfortable either in the short term, or after a little while of having them on. So it’s just not working out for the white SB Sox for me.Since it wasn’t a complete loss, with the nude/beige ones being okay, I don’t feel too bad about the whole thing, but I think I’d rather just stick with what I know already works well for me when it comes time to replace them.

Surprisingly comfortable
It goes up to my knee and they’re quite comfortable! Though it’s kinda thin so just keep that in mind
