Tip of the month: Are Compression Socks Right For Me?

The words “compression socks” make some people think of the nylon, medical grade hosiery worn by someone we know addressing serious health issues. You might not be aware that some of the best looking and most comfortable socks use graduated compression to improve circulation and keep your legs and feet feeling fresh all day.

Our Sockwell medium grade compression socks combine luxurious long-fiber merino wool (no itching!) and bamboo rayon with regions of stretchy compression, creating a fashionable sock with extra benefits. Sockwell compression socks help return blood flow from the legs to the heart and can reduce swelling associated with long periods of sitting or standing. They’re perfect for working on your feet, flying and long road trips!

If you’ve experienced muscle fatigue after a strenuous workout, compression socks can be a great muscle recovery tool. If your workout is in the evening, try sleeping in a pair of Sockwell compression socks. They’ll work all night long, while you rest and recover.

Come on in to Mast Shoes and check out our Sockwell compression socks. You’ll be surprised how comfortable they feel and their styles and fun colors will delight your eyes. Once you try them, you’ll understand why quality compression socks are a great addition to your wardrobe.
