Compression Socks

What are the benefits of wearing compression socks?

Compression socks help improve blood circulation, reduce swelling, and alleviate discomfort in the legs. TheRY’s 15-20mmHg graduated compression socks provide moderate pressure, making them ideal for relieving tired, achy feet, by promoting better circulation, which can also help prevent conditions like varicose veins.

How can compression socks help during pregnancy?

During pregnancy, blood volume increases by up to 50% and the heart and veins must work hard to pump blood to you and your baby. Circulation can be compromised leading to increased fluid retention, which can cause swollen feet and legs. Graduated compression socks work to support the veins and help improve circulation to reduce swelling, and lower the risk of varicose veins. TheRY’s 15-20mmHg compression socks are designed for easy wear for pregnancy and made with premium yarns for all-day comfort.

Is it safe to wear compression socks while flying?

Yes, compression socks are highly recommended for flying. Graduated compression socks help reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), prevent swelling, and improve circulation during long flights, where sitting for extended periods can lead to leg discomfort and health issues.

Apart from flying, any time you are sitting for more than 4 hours, compression socks can help.

How long can you wear compression socks?

Compression socks, like TheRY’s 15-20mmHg graduated compression socks, can be worn comfortably all day. They are designed to be worn for extended periods, especially during activities like standing, sitting, traveling, or any time you're prone to leg swelling or discomfort.

How do I know which are the best compression socks to buy?

For everyday use, 15-20mmHg compression socks are ideal for improving circulation, reducing swelling, and relieving tired legs—perfect for pregnancy, travel, and long periods of sitting or standing. For more serious needs, 20-30mmHg may be recommended and are tighter socks.

Fit is key to getting the most from your compression socks. TheRY offers 5 sizes to ensure a perfect fit, maximizing the benefits of compression. Brands with fewer sizes may not provide the same level of support or comfort.
