Do you have a job that keeps you on your feet or in your seat all day? Do you have swollen ankles, tired feet, achy legs? Are you an athlete or an avid runner? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions then you are definitely in need of this list of best compression socks!
What are compression socks?
Compression socks are socks that are designed specifically to promote increased blood flow, which helps the leg muscles relax and helps minimizes swelling in ankles and feet. If you sit all day or travel in long stretches, compression socks can help prevent dangerous health conditions associated with prolonged immobility. Athletes, especially runners, wear compression socks to aid in muscle recovery, and for more energy during workouts. Compression socks are also recommended to reduce the risk of blood clots , relieve varicose vein symptoms and improve your circulation.
Graduated compression socks hold the greatest compression at the foot and compression lessens as you move up towards the calf. Most of the socks in this list are graduated compression socks.

I love to test new ones and use these for running, so this is really helpful.
I really like your suggestions on USA Love List. But, you’re missing a great product from Colorado. I’ve purchased and been very impressed with GRIP6 (dot) com wool socks. For a guy who does a lot of walking, I’ve tried many socks, but never found the ones that really work for me. Now I’ve found the ones I love. Please check them out, look at their video, and add them to your Love List.
I just bought the Thorlos Experia 5+1 Bonus Pack-No Show Liner pack. It is made in China. Sending back for a refund. 🙁
Sorry! The socks on on the Thorlos site are clearly labeled ‘made in USA’. If you read the description on the 5 pack that you bought it has this disclaimer: *Due to technical constrains, we were not able to manufacture the Experia Green collection in the USA. The collection is made in Asia with the sock industry’s most trusted suppliers.
Could you add Apolla Performance Wear to this list? I love them and they are made in North Carolina!
This is so helpful as I use these to run and love to try new ones
