Top band too constrictive, otherwise excellent
"I am new to compression stockings for myself, but I had my measurements from my doctor and bought a few different socks to try out different styles/brands. This pair of socks (size Large / Pink) were the first I tried on, and this review is being written about a month later. They were neither difficult, nor easy, to put on - about typical difficulty from what I can tell by witnessing my husband put on his compression socks (different brand and seller), and from what I've experienced in trying out the other socks in my order. These felt very comfortable at first, and when I took them off after about half a day of wearing them, the compression appeared to work very well - and in fact appeared to have the best compression of all the pairs I purchased. My problem with these socks, however, is the band at the top is too narrow and as the day progresses, starts acting/feeling like a tourniquet. I believe if the manufacturer would give these a wider band, it'd help prevent that binding feeling and make these a 5-star comfortable sock."
