I sprained my ankle and needed some support/compression that was easy to wear regularly. I was between sizes, and per the seller’s instructions I ordered up. Got the socks and put one on… and it wasn’t quite tight enough. It was tight, as they are compression socks, but I was hoping for more support. I emailed the seller (they included a little card to reach out with questions). Their customer support was amazing… quick response and detailed information. I ended up ordering the smaller size to compare.
The smaller size was much tighter, and a little shorter. This ended up being great for longer times on my feet (walking, grocery shopping, working out, etc). The shorter sock fit really well with the flip flops I usually wear. The larger sock is good for general wear around the house (I work from home), and quick errands. If you’re between sizes, I’d recommend smaller if you’re looking for great compression, you walk or stand a lot, or if you’ll be wearing shoes often. The larger sock will be lighter compression, but still good, and an easier wear when sitting, and very light walking.
By the way, the pink is gorgeous. A true hot pink. I hand wash nightly and they wash very well. Dry overnight.
These are my measurements so you have something to compare: 22cm arch (least important to me), 23.5cm ankle (most important due to desire to compress ankle swelling), Usually wear a wide width shoe Size 38 (between a size 7 and 8 in US sizes).
