Twin City Oxysox Compression Socks Reviews

Customer Rating:
Summary: Hand wash / line dry ONLY!!!
Comment: I was initially very pleased with the product and the wear. They are very comfortable and do a very good job of what they were intended for- compression. Throughout the day, they do a good job of actually staying all the way up to the knee.

Be warned though...these socks are hand wash and line dry only.

As someone who is in a combat zone, I wanted these socks to augment with my Converse combat boots and they do an outstanding job. This is really important as I don't have the greatest circulation in my lower legs (hereditary). Unfortunately, twelve hour shifts, seven days a week, amounts to very little off time to accomodate the hand washing and line drying. So, like the rest of my clothing, everything went into the machines. As a result, after one wash & dry cycle, some of the socks now have holes which, if worn, run like pantyhose.

I suppose I will have to try again with some compression socks that one can throw in the wash with the rest of the whites.

Summary: Compression
Comment: These are great. Besides working great on the muscles, they also provide relief of shin splint type injuries. After months of failed treatments I was able to return to running because of these. Less cramping and aches in covered areas after working out to. Technically great product. On the aesthetic side, be prepared for some strange looks or snickers if used in a sport where high top socks are not the norm.

Summary: Oxysox
Comment: Not a lot to say. Bought Oxysox at Fleet Feet in Washington,DC a couple of years ago. My son wanted another pair. Could not find them anywhere in this area. Got a pair through Amazon (not quite the same as the original ones, but ok) Price at $19.95 was the same. Shipping cost of $7.98 seemed a bit high for such a lightweight item.
