Non-Compression Socks

Unlike compression socks, Mi Socks don't squeeze. They are non-compression socks: a wide, loose top band holds them up without a tight elastic ring, and the knit is made not to press on your foot or leg. They come in Crew and Knee High, in sizes M, L and XL, at $9.99 a pair.

Who looks for non-compression socks?

People who find ordinary socks tight, and anyone who wants a sock that stays up without a ring around the leg. The NIDDK advises people with diabetes not to wear tight socks. Our guide explains how the two kinds of sock differ.

Do non-compression socks stay up?

Yes, if the size is right. The top band is loose, but the knit has a little stretch, so the sock holds its place. A sock that is too big can slide, so pick M, L or XL from the sock size chart. Our guide, do loose fitting socks stay up, has more.

If your doctor prescribed compression stockings

Keep wearing those. Non-compression socks are not a substitute for a prescribed stocking. If you are not sure which kind you need, ask your doctor.
