Why buy regular dress socks when you can have dress socks with compression? Because your legs will thank you for it. Ease Men's Trouser Socks feature high tech, ultra stretchy, ultra soft yarns for premium comfort and ease of donning. Multiple color options are sure to match your slacks and short & long lengths mean the best fit. Having the option of short or long length plus a soft, comfortable band results in a non-restrictive fit while staying in place all day. Lab-tested true gradient compression gradually decreases towards the top of the stocking to promote blood flow. Moisture wicking CoolMax fibers provide dry comfortable coolness and a smooth, rounded toe seam is reinforced for durability.

Those who have never worn gradient compression before may feel that these garments are difficult to put on or tighter than traditional hosiery. It is this "snug" fit that provides the graduated pressure. It is very important to measure the ankle, calf, and sometimes thigh to ensure a proper fit and to receive the benefits of the graduated compression. If pain, discomfort, or areas of binding occur, the stockings should be removed immediately.
