I am a nurse and am on my feet for a minimum of 12 hours at a time. I have also developed varicose veins which really ache some days.After trying these compression socks the aching in my legs has decreased significantly. There are nights I forget to start my shift with them and after a few hours I realize why my legs hurt so much. As soon as I put them on it's like ahhh..relief. Every time someone sees me with them they ask me where I got them and if they are as good as they seem and my answer is always YES! I wear them when I fly and drive long distances too. I wash them in cold water and hang dry them to keep the elasticity. I will also mention that after about 8 hours they start to make the back of the knee area a little raw and that't when I take them off. There are a bunch of cool colors to choose from too!

Perfect product for increasing blood circulation and eliminating pain & discomfort from varicose veins!

I have horrible varicose veins in both legs, partially due to hereditary (10-15 years ago both parents had varicose veins stripped from one leg & dad is ready to have other leg taken care of soon) ...and in my case for the right leg, huge varicose vein blow out from senior-year high school co-ed gym class injury during softball unit, one of the guys was goofing off and threw a ball, which hit the ground and full-force smacked the inside of my right leg, just below the knee. Now 17 years later after the injury in P.E., I have experienced abnormal swelling in right calf/ankle/foot. I am a chef and on my feet 10hrs/day 6 days/week. Finally seeing a vein specialist who ordered me to wear calf sleeves with 20-30 mm/Hg compression. I purchased a pair of "CEP" brand, 20-30mm/Hg graduated compression calf sleeves from the vein center for $40 and then came home and searched for the same product sold here on amazon.com I came across the "Thirty 48" brand and found this two-pack deal 2pair for $35! I have to wear these as close to 24-7 as possible (only remove them to shower and then put on a clean pair). These MUST be hand-washed and line-dried to maximize effectiveness of the graduated compression (nylon &spandex). I have been wearing them now for 10 days and can't believe the difference the constant compression has made in reducing fatigue and heavy/throbbing feeling in lower legs by the end of the day. I will have my varicose veins in both legs treated with laser procedure and then vein stripping. I am instructed to continue wearing the calf sleeves for at least 1 year after my vein procedure. I will be buying more!

Helps with shin pain

I went five days without running to try to help my shin pain go away and thought I would try some type of shin compression sleeve. I already wear knee braces to help prevent knee pains and shin splints but when I started out running I landed hard on my right leg and it caused pain in my shins and the pain didn't go away. These came in the mail today and although there is some support, I don't think it will be enough for my shins. *****UPDATE: It's been almost a year and I still wear these every time I run. I bought a different brand of compression sleevss as well and also a pair of compression socks and neither of them give the support that these do. I don't run without them.

Buying More -- Super Wonderful

Very good quality, comfortable, very tight. I'm 5'3-4", my leg measurement from the top of my outside ankle bone to the area just under my knee is 13", my calf is about 14.25" diameter and the area right at my ankle is 7.75" and just above that, the lower part of my leg is 9.75", which graduates up to 14.25" at the calf and maintains swelling up to my knee. Been this way for years; activity and hot temperatures exacerbate it. I had purchased the Zenzha brand a few years ago small/medium and they just didn't seem to be effective enough to bother with them every day. But these Thirty48 Small are wonderful. They are very tight and hard to get on compared to the Zenzha's but so worth it. My legs feel alive and do not hurt during hikes, or just by the end of the day. The swelling is kept to a minimum and I'm hoping that the improvement in circulation will help reduce the fluid over time. My husband suggested that I wear them at night. I grabbed the Zensah ones last night as they are lighter, and this morning I noticed less of a bulge at the base of my legs. It seems the Thirty48 are a bit more geared to a wider range of sizes in that they offer specifically a small size -- also the pair has a right and a left indicator label on the inside, they also list the measurement of compression but I could not tell what compression the small is. I hope this review is helpful.

Thirty48 Works Wonders for Me!

These calf sleeves have been very beneficial. I am 62 years young and in the midst of a health campaign. I power walk 6 days/week and alternate 3.5 and 4.2 miles on every other day. I was advised to get sleeves because my lower legs were throbbing and painfully sore each night. After getting these sleeves, my legs do not throb any more and on occasion I have soreness but not with the degree of pain I used to get. Honestly, I was not aware of the brand at the time I decided to purchase sleeves. I did Internet research on this type product and learned of the brand and its quality construction for the price. After reading many reviews, I decided to give the brand a try. I DO NOT regret buying them and highly recommend them. I have an equal opinion of the brand's Plantar Fasciitis Socks, which I purchased with these sleeves.

Worth the money!!!! Upping my intensity and reducing my calf cramps, I am loving these cool and well made sleeves!

I've been using these for about two weeks and am very happy with them. I have extremely tight calves and may have plantar fasciitis so I've been stretching more and got these to help with the pain after exercising. They have a great compression in the calves which a few others that I tried didn't. Some of them just feel like socks and I definitely felt the graduated compression of these sleeves as I pulled them on. Someone asked me if they were hot, and I realized that they are truly breathable. I could definitely feel cooler air moving around the room so either they disperse the moisture exceptionally quickly or have a strong and open weave that doesn't make you sweat like a lycra or elastic sock would. I'm already getting ready to order some of the Thirty48 socks to help with my feet after the experience I've had with the sleeves. I do a lot of cardio and high intensity interval training like Insanity, P90X and Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30. If you need something that can help survive the sweat and stress in these programs I believe you've found the right product. There is no miracle cure, so I've been stretching my feet and calves more, and believe these sleeves have helped in defeating the painful cramping my calves got while exercising. I've been able to workout harder and longer than before I purchased these.

Loved them so much I purchased another two pack

I first bought one pair of these. Loved them so much I purchased another two pack. My Doc wanted me to get some compression socks. My varicose veins were giving me pain in my knees. I found these so that I could get compression and still wear my own comfy socks. - Im 6'3" and hve some hearty calves. I bought the large size and it fits great. - Initially I was worried that the elastic near my ankle would be too tight and cut off blood flow. Not the case. I wear these for 8+ hours at work and on weekends. - In my experience the 15-22 compression is a good compression for every day and sort of lounging or travel. The 20-30 compression is a bit tighter and I use for working out, constant moving. My feet eventually fall asleep with the 20-30 if I just am sitting around. Overall these are a great pair of compression calf that allow you to still wear whatever socks you want on your feet.

Thirty 48 is a BEAST

I bought 2 pairs of THIRTY 48 compression and it was the best purchase ever. I used the THIRTY 48 this weekend on SPARTAN BEAST at VAIL LAKE Temecula, 13miles, 25 + obstacle, this included running uphill. jumping, crawling, running/hiking high elevation. My legs did not feel fatigue, tired, or spasm. Most of all I didnt CRAMP up the entire 13 miles, but most of my teammates did at 6 miles. I also did not feel hot wearing them in 106 degress. So now all my teammates believed me that wearing THIRTY 48 compression helps with blood flow, in return more oxygen to your muscle and less cramping. I also washed this after the event and didnt even shrink, I am 5'6, 150lb (I purchase small size and fits perfectly, not too tight or not too long, not to loose) As a Registered Nurse, I would also get this for my grandma who gets edema/swelling on her legs, this will also prevent DVT (deep vein thrombosis). I love this product and I would recommend this to anyone (runners, hiker, climbers, occupation that requires long standing)

Skeptical at first but now I'm a believer. No more shin pain while running!

I didn't think compression could help me that much, but, I was at a point that i would try anything. Recently I started having bad pain in my left shin while running. I had never had this problem before so I didn't know what to do. I could run 5+ miles at a time with out any discomfort. Suddenly I couldnt even run a mile without a lot of pain. So I did some research and these were recommended. I didn't think compression could do anything against my shin pain. I was wrong. I put them on for a run and at first I could feel a little discomfort but nothing like before. After the first mile I had none of the pain at all. I have ran many times since with them and so far they have done the trick. I highly recommend these.

Shinsplints? What shinsplints? Accelerated recovery at a reasonable price.

No stranger to overtraining injuries, that I had never experienced shin splints before probably meant I was past due for this kind of ailment. Sure enough, I woke one morning after consecutive quality run/fast walking workouts to a painful right shin. No worries, I thought. A couple days rest, and I'll be back in business. Not a chance. In fact, being a classroom teacher, and on my feet all day, this seemed to exacerbate the situation and stall my recovery. And neither frequent icing nor the Ibuprofen regime my GP put me on even made a dent in the pain or hastened the healing. After just two weeks of this, I was getting desperate. So, subsequent research offered evidence that some runners, like myself, had benefitted from wearing compression sleeves on their calves. I was skeptical, but felt like it was at least worth a try. I looked for sleeves that were well made, with a fairly high degree of compression (based on reviews) and chose the Thrity48 Cp Compression Sleeves. I had low expectations (yes, that skeptical), but being desperate for a remedy, and feeling like the price of admission was reasonable, I ordered a pair. I wore the sleeves to school the next day and by lunch, my shin actually felt BETTER. And by the day's end, instead of the nagging pain, I was experiencing only moderate irritation; a far cry from what the previous two weeks had been like. I decided to wear the sleeves to bed that night with the rationale that if a little treatment was good, a lot would be even better. In hindsight, I'm not sure that made a huge difference, but at that point, I felt like I was turning a corner in getting back to running. At the very least, I found them comfortable enough to not disrupt my sleep. Long story short, after wearing them for five days, I was on the treadmill for 20 minute run/walk intervals by the weekend. This continued for another week with three subsequent and more demanding workouts (distance/time). By yesterday, I was back on the road again with my first "real" quality run in more than three weeks. My shin felt great during the run and, though I have the expected day after mild irritation, that's what the Ibuprofen is for, right? ;) At any rate, these sleeves are well-made, comfortable, and most importantly, hastened my recovery from shin splints and put me back on the road and running again. Yeah, YMMV, but you might want to get some.
