Very comfortable stockings, great quality
I have swollen ankles and ordered the bamboo compression peep toe stockings. Tried for the first time and felt so comfortable on my legs and feet. A little struggle to get them on. I left them on for around 4 hours and hardly any mark left at the sock top on my legs. I will do this daily and see if the stockings helps with the swelling but they did make my legs and swollen ankles feel comfortable. Great quality, nice and soft to touch.
A guidance on best way to put the stockings on would have been very helpful.

Excellent quality and value
Wearing elastic stockings with shorts in summer used to feel quite embarrassing but the variety of styles and colours, along with the excellent quality mean that this is no longer the case, I am quite happy to wear them when I need to (most of the time currently. The bamboo mix is also much cooler on the legs than the traditional elastane and consequently much mor comfortable to wear. The price means that they are excellent value for money too, which is always a bonus.

Stockings relatively easy to put on and take off again. They provide good support and help with circulation and help reduce swelling of ankles, without being too tight! Although, it's important to take the necessary measurements beforehand to ensure the correct size is ordered! Excellent quality and comfortable to wear. Have purchased these in the past and can highly recommend!

Best compression socks by far
I have been wearing compression socks for some time but finding they caused excessive sweating and discomfort. My doctor told ne about Bamboo mix compression socks and explained to me that they would probably be a better option for me so I looked up the Compression sock shop website. I found the sizing easy to follow and ordered 2 pairs to try for myself. They are so much more comfortable than anything I have worn before that I would heartily recommend them to anyone.

Great socks
I was a little surprised to order these and to find they were dispatched from Demark.
However, although they took a bit longer to arrive(partly Royal Mail's fault), I am pleased with the quality, the colour and that they are made with bamboo which will make them more comfortable than any that are available in the local shops.
An added bonus is that they are made in Europe although I am unclear as to which European country that is.

Mother of invention
The quality is excellent but The open toe rides up the foot, I was continually pulling them back towards my toes. I cut the cuff from an older stocking to make a narrow piece to fit between the big toe, ie from front to back. I no longer need to adjust, they don’t ride up ar all.

Comfortable and supportive compression socks
I ordered a pack of five bamboo compression socks as that was the most cost effective way of ordering.
Lovely socks as compression socks go. Comfortable, supportive and they stay put.
I think I would have liked more choice in the colour combination, not really a fan of brown but that's personal preference.
They were delivered within a reasonable timeframe too.

I’m really pleased
Overall I’m really pleased to find compression socks that perform so much better than what I’ve experienced before. They stay up over the course of the day. They are a little big on the foot for me.
Very comfortable to wear and the designs are great.
I am working up to compression level 2 as that is what my hospital recommends but need to ensure I have the right size first. The minus point was due to a free rucksack with purchase not arriving.

Good quality socks and priced reasonably. The class 2 medical socks has stopped my husband’s varicose veins from worsening as well as the varicose eczema. He was advised to wear them in 2014 and has done since. They also last a long time and stop just below the knee.

After lots of research on various sites I decided on Compression leggings from Compression.co.uk , making sure I used the useful size measurement guide as this is crucial when deciding which items to purchase as they are expensive ( discount code and free postage were helpful)
The leggings are rally hard to put on so make sure you put them on straight but really help with my painful thigh whilst I wait for an operation soon .

Late order but arrived in time!
I realised quite late before my trip abroad that I needed some more compression tights, so ordered some on a wing and a prayer. Coming from Denmark, I knew they might not arrive in time - but they did! They were sent on the day I ordered them, and I was so glad I had them with me - quality tights are expensive, but comfortable ankles are priceless.

Very impresssed
To date very impresssed with customer service and despatch - item comes from Denmark, and gets to me quicker than some items i order in the UK . Very easy to do and Compressions socks responded very quickly, not worn the socks as yet as i ordered the wrong size - so had to return.

Good prices - better than those from UK stores
Good prices - better than those purchased from UK based stores. Prompt delivery and wide choice of products.
My favourite brand of support tights (Relaxsan the nylon version - not microfibre) is only stocked in black. If you could supply the skintone tights that would be great for the summer months.

Great compression socks
The socks are soft easy to get on and off and very comfortable. I bought two pairs, one footless because I have varicose veins and already after a few wears they have reduced slightly. The flight socks are also much softer and easier to get on than my traditional ones. Also Ilove the bright colours.

Great compression socks
It's really hard to find moderate compression cotton-based knee high socks which are comfortable, but these do it for me. There's an excellent choice of design, and they arrive promptly although they come from Denmark. I've shopped with them a number of times now, and have always been very pleased.

Excellent quality but very difficult to put on
The quality and instructions are excellent, but I found them extremely difficult to put on.
I am not sure whether this is my fault, although I measured my legs very carefully and decided that Medium was the right size (had even considered small!)
I received a pair (not your make I think) from the NHS but felt that I should not request another toeless pair for use in the summer.
I literally cannot put these socks on unaided, but in every other respect they are excellent quality.

Good Quality Product.
This is the third order I have had and very satisfied with my dealing with the compression sock company. I cannot think of anything that you could any better, I like the products and although a little pricey I don't mind paying for Quality. Very happy with my purchase.

1st class website, description & garments!
Website was clear & easy to use. The description of the compression socks was accurate. Have not worn them yet as ordered in advance of upcoming holiday! I did briefly try them on & they seem comfortable! Delivery was quicker than I'd anticipated! Thank you!

The range is excellent and the descriptions aided decisions. The pricing is competitive. Despatch was swift and delivery, by Royal Mail, is usually reliable with communications helping to determine receipt

Feeling lighter from the first day
Making the order was very smooth with clear instructions about size. I received regular updates about the delivery and they arrived as expected. They are extremely comfortable to wear and from the first day I noticed that my shoes did not feel tight anymore and my legs feel lighter at the end of the day.
