These are knit as a measured gradient rather than a tight tube: firmest at the ankle, easing as the stocking rises toward the knee. Choose 8–15 mmHg for light everyday support, 15–20 mmHg for medium, or 20–30 mmHg for firm. If you have been told to wear a specific strength, choose that one, and check with your doctor before changing it.

Fabric & Care
84% nylon and 16% spandex, knit to hold firm, consistent support through the day and to wash without going slack. Over-the-calf length with a smooth, flat toe seam and a flat top band shaped to sit without rolling or pinching. Knit on knitting machines in Alabama and made in the USA. Machine wash cold, tumble dry low or hang dry. No bleach, and no fabric softener, which coats the fibers and shortens the life of the knit.
Sizing & Fit
Three sizes, all based on your everyday shoe size: Medium fits shoe sizes 7–10, Large fits 10.5–13.5, X-Large fits 14–16. Go by the shoe size you normally wear — there is nothing to measure. Between sizes, go up.
Then pick your strength. Light is 8–15 mmHg, medium is 15–20 mmHg and firm is 20–30 mmHg. The number is the pressure the knit applies, measured in millimetres of mercury, so a higher range means more compression. All three are graduated: firmest at the ankle, easing up the calf. If you have been told to wear a specific strength, choose that one, and check with your doctor before changing it.
Shipping & Returns
Free shipping on every order, with no minimum to hit. Orders leave the warehouse within 1–2 business days. Every pair carries a 1-year replacement guarantee: if a stocking gets a hole or wears out within a year, send it back and we'll replace it free.
Over-the-calf length, smooth toe seam
Graduated compression stated in mmHg — 8–15, 15–20 or 20–30 — firmest at the ankle and easing up the calf, with a flat top band that does not dig in.
The same build in every pair
What goes into every Diabetic Sock Club compression stocking, from the top band down to the toe.

Over-The-Calf Length
Full lower-leg coverage from the toe to just below the knee, instead of stopping at the ankle.
Flat, Non-Rolling Top
The top band is knit flat and shaped to hold position through a long day without rolling down or pinching the calf.
Made In The U.S.A.
Knit on knitting machines in Alabama and shipped from NC, so we can hold every pair to the same standard.

Covered from toe to just below the knee

84% NYLON / 16% SPANDEX
Holds its strength wash after wash
An 84% nylon and 16% spandex knit that keeps its compression through the day and washes without going slack, so the pair you bought in March still feels the same in September.

Frequently Asked Questions
If your question isn't here, give us a call.
Which compression strength should I choose?
Choose 8–15 mmHg for light everyday support, 15–20 mmHg for medium, or 20–30 mmHg for firm. All three are graduated: firmest at the ankle, easing up the calf. If you have been told to wear a specific strength, choose that one, and check with your doctor before changing it.
What is the 1-year replacement guarantee?
If a pair gets a hole or wears out within a year of buying it, send it back and we'll replace it free.
How do I choose my size?
Go by your everyday shoe size — Medium fits shoe sizes 7–10, Large fits 10.5–13.5, X-Large fits 14–16. There is nothing to measure. Between sizes, go up.
How do I get them on?
Roll the stocking down to the heel, slip your foot in, then unroll it up the leg rather than tugging from the top. The firmer 20–30 mmHg takes a little more effort the first few times. Our Sock Aid Slider Kit helps if bending is difficult.
Can I wear them on long flights and long drives?
That is what most customers buy them for: long flights, long drives and long days out. Most people put them on in the morning and take them off at night.
What are they made of, and where?
84% nylon and 16% spandex, knit on knitting machines in Alabama and made in the USA. Machine washable, in White, Black, Navy, Brown, Grey and Tan.

Compression socks that customers say provide effective support for venous insufficiency and swelling. Many praised the "best fitting compression sock" and comfort, noting they "hardly know I'm wearing them." However, sizing is highly inconsistent - numerous shoppers found them extremely tight or impossible to get on despite following size charts, particularly over the heel and calf.
Some of the reviews shown are from related products the merchant grouped with this one.

I love these compression socks. I plan on ordering more.Best fitting compression sock I have I have found.
A
These socks provided the compression needed for my venous insufficiency.
p
great socks they are a little tight but seem to be doing the trick i have bad legs i am 85 1/2 years old they are made with quality material love the color options
A
I like them
E
The stockings work very well. However since I have large calfs, the socks are hard to put on. I have inquired of DSC whether they carry socks that can be subject to measurement. They do not. Nonetheless ,I continue to use the socks which otherwise work for me.
A
Unfortunately, I'm disappointed in them, bc they do not fit me. I thought they would bc I ordered them according to my shoe size.
It's sad, bc they are very expensive and I'm stuck with them bc I cannot wear them. I'll never order any kind of stocking again. Oh well, you live and learn.

Too small could not get over my foot!

Customer support is super to work with, great company.
A
These were more comfortable than any compression stockings. I have tried many for swelling of the feet, ankles and lower legs. I have been washing and drying them as advised. Hoping they last a while.
Most of my compression stockings wear out quickly. But , so far. They do the job and are not causing marks on my skin like others do. I hardly know I'm wearing them.
J
They are to tight. Hard to get up over my heel. Bought the same size as I got from the hospital
F
need open toes socks
D
The sizing was extremely small. My husband was unable to begin to get him over his foot. Even for myself, they were difficult to get on and extremely tight.
N
Bought these as they were advertised to be very compressive at feet and looser to knee. The opposite was true. Huge and baggy at feet and fairly tight at knee.
c
Large size is too small. I can't seem to find XL on your website anymore. I am in a wheelchair and get the L on.
A
so far they are great, holding my breath to see how they hold up after being washed a few times, As of now they are 5 star socks
G
fits perfect!!
F
Great fit
A
Same as others. A lot of money for one pair. No simple explanation of how to return them and extremely uncomfortable.

I have 17 inch calfs. I could hardly get the sock over the heel of my foot, very poor quality.

I have charges on my card I cannot substantiate. I thought I ordered socks with a free gift. I have a charge of $22.50(8-14-26) and another for $59.98 (8-17-26) I did receive a package of three pairs + a free gift but cannot locate (the single pair?)the other order. The size recommendation I followed was very tight and painful. and I do mean painful. I have small calves to begin with, (like a chicken leg) yet these socks were killer tight. total waste of money. Please contact me for a return and refund.
