Copper Infused Toeless Compression Calf Socks with Zipper for Women and

My wife has swelling legs due to heart failure. She wears this to reduce swelling.

After metatarsal fracture, physician instructed me to wear compression sock for support for several weeks. I liked that this sock is "thin" in the area of the ball of my foot and was comfortable wearing a shoe (did not bunch up). Most frustrating is that the zipper snags upon its own edges -- that is to say the edges are not fully stitched down and tend to fold over and clog the zipper while you're pulling it up. You have to manipulate the sock a great deal to get it closed, and you wouldn't want it looser because the point is to have compression. The manufacturer stitches the zipper close to the teeth but needs to run a second edge stitch the entire length to prevent it folding over into the path of zipping.

I like that they are easier to put on, but the zipper kept catching on the inside, so I stitched the edges of the zipper flat to the sock fabric and it works just fine. Perhaps the manufacturer can make that improvement before they are shipped in the future. They are wearing very well. I do get a little irritation where my skin contacts the zipper, but I adjust it periodically so I can wear them for the better part of the day. Honestly, I have no idea if copper makes a difference.

My wife is relieved by not having to struggle with her former suppression socks, they were copper infused but not toeless. I had to help her put them on. These socks provide the support she needs, without the hassle. Will be ordering her a 2nd pair.

My grandfather is undergoing chemotherapy for cancer. As a result of the chemo, his feet swell each night making it difficult for him to walk. These socks really helped. The zipper makes them easier to get on than other types of compression socks and he can control how much compression that he needs on his feet. They have taken much of the swelling out of his feet and he has been able to walk around much more. The socks themselves are made of really good material. Highly recommend.

Our daughter is special needs and after healing from a tibia fracture, she need compression socks.The zipper makes it much easier for those helping put the socks on.

I bought these for my mother who was recently diagnosed with bone marrow cancer. She has been experiencing leg pain and heel pain and swelling as a side effect of the chemo treatments. I had purchased some compression stockings locally but they did not zip up so she could never get them on. She has reported to me that these zipper ones work great and are so easy to put on. She is very pleased. Thank you so much!

Zipper digs into my leg a bit. Helps if I wear the zipper on inside of calf. Zipper not helpful in putting on. But great to help take off. Great support though. My legs feel much better.
