Core-Spun Unisex Socks Mild Support 15-20mmHg

Core-Spun by Therafirm Mild Support Socks look and feel like soft, comfortable everyday socks, with the added benefit of true gradient compression. Made in the USA by Therafirm, part of Thuasne, they give lab-tested 15–20 mmHg compression. It is greatest at the ankle and decreases up the leg to promote better circulation and help prevent swelling and leg fatigue.

The secret is the core-spun yarn: soft fibres wrapped around an ultra-stretchy core. The socks stretch easily over the foot, making them easier to put on for you or a carer, then settle into firm, comfortable support. Moisture-wicking, breathable fibres keep feet cool and dry. The comfort top stays in place all day without digging in. This makes them ideal as compression socks for everyday wear, as men's compression wear or compression wear for women, at work, at home or on a long-haul flight.

Core-Spun Mild Support Socks are recommended for:

Tired, heavy, aching legs
Mild varicose veins, poor circulation and leg discomfort
Mild to moderate swelling (oedema)
Helping prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) on long-distance travel
Varicose veins and swelling during pregnancy, making them a comfortable choice of compression socks for pregnancy
Periods of immobility
People who sit or stand for long periods at work, such as nurses, teachers and flight attendants

For the right fit, measure your ankle and calf first thing in the morning, before any swelling builds up. If you have a medical condition, check with your doctor or health professional before wearing compression.
