Perfect hug around my legs

The socks feel smooth when putting them on. They are able to be pulled up with ease but then feel tight enough as a compression sock. The design feels perfect. They don't bunch in any specific place and are able to come up right behind my knee so they don't feel out of place there either. These socks, compared to other compression socks, don't feel as bulky. They don't feel too thick in the toes as some others tend to feel. I also noticed as I wore them throughout the day that they felt cool. They didn't feel hot, bulky, nor itchy. These socks feel like they have the perfect amount of compression to enhance circulation in the legs, which is good for long shifts or when on your feet for an extended amount of time. Honestly, they feel like a perfect little hug around my legs! :)

Great feeling but a little warm

These socks feel good and do help over a long day on my feet. I find them a bit warm after a while which might work better in winter but a bit much in warm august and September. That said, I will definitely be using them at work during the cooler months! I’m a size 9 and the small/med size fit great!

The comfiest compression socks I've ever worn.

Coming home from a 12 hour shift in the ER, I am a huge fan of the socks. They are super comfy. The cushioning at the bottom is wonderful.

Cute, funny and cushiony

Post a 12 hour shift at the hospital, these might be some of the best compression socks I've tried. They're really cushiony, so my feet feel supported and comfortable. My only critique is they might need to be tighter. They survived a 12 hour shift and kept me comfortable the whole time.

Nurse approved compression socks

I've been a nurse for over 25 years, worked shifts of 8 and 12 hours for many years. I have tried shoes and socks along the years to alleviate my pain after working the floor. I used compression socks in the past and they worked but they were synthetic and made my feet feel cold .

Dr. Socko's socks are different and much better, they are very soft and compressive, plus they're funny! I'm definitely buying more pairs for myself and as gifts for my nurses friends. We can all use a good laugh during those long shifts!

Soft and warm compression

Loved how soft they were and the reinforced heel. Amount of compression is the same as my other socks, but these are softer and thicker. Which, the thicker part might not be ok for some as it does make them warmer but my Raynauds really appreciated it.

Felt a lot nicer on my skin

I love love LOVE the extra support on the heel. It made a world of a difference for me. The thickness of the socks overall is just right. Overall, I found these compression socks to be the most comfortable ones I have worn. The thickness, softness and compression are just right. I would definitely recommend these to any healthcare worker or anyone who is on their feet most of the day.

Easy to Wear, More Compression Needed

I was thrilled to try Dr. Socko’s compression socks! They were much easier to put on than the Crazy Compression socks I usually wear—I could actually put them on myself, which is a huge plus! Dr. Socko socks have a comfortable, traditional sock feel, but I’d love to see more fun designs and medical-related sayings like on their hospital socks. As someone who wears compression socks daily, it would be amazing if Dr. Socko made versions with their fantastic grippy bottoms to prevent slips at home. I think they’d be a great fit for healthcare workers and even flight attendants looking for both practical and fun compression socks!

Thick socks, hilarious designs

Cons:
1. They are a thick material. I work 12 hour shifts as a nurse and my feet get hot. That's just me.
2. They only give 10-15 mm of support.
I like 20-30 mm of support.

Pros:
1. Super cute/hilarious design
2. If you like thicker socks - great

I will def be wearing these socks again, but probably just not for work.

Firm support and all-day comfort

Compared to other compression socks I’ve tried, like the Scholl’s brand, Dr. Socko’s socks stand out for their softness and overall comfort. The Scholl’s socks have a rougher texture and tend to leave red marks on my legs after a long day, which makes them uncomfortable to wear for extended periods. In contrast, Dr. Socko’s socks feel gentler on the skin yet still provide strong compression without feeling restrictive or heavy. I also noticed they didn’t dig into my calves, a common issue with other brands. These socks strike an outstanding balance between firm support and all-day comfort, making them a superior option right from the moment I put them on.

I wore these socks during a long shift as a veterinary assistant, and they provided a comfortable compression level without being too tight. Although the compression is lighter than I typically wear, I noticed significantly reduced leg fatigue and soreness after being on my feet from 8 a.m. to 6:40 p.m.

Solid 4 stars, for comfort, and softness

Only took one star for compression, and muted color. Great fall color, natural, calming, but I prefer bright colored socks. These will be great to relax in on your day off, or travel with.

I was hopeful

I like them, but they slide off my feet and I've lost my footiya few times. I would go one size smaller. Very comfortable and soft.

Comfortable at home and in hospital

Socks are super soft. Softer than any sock I’ve been given in a hospital. I even bought a pair as a gift.

Socks are fabulous . They are so comfy and the grips on the soles are perfectv

Thank you

Good socks - not too thin, not too thick, grip great. My sister (multiple myeloma) and I love them.

I just don’t buy them I wear them

I had a complete knee replacement today. I packed my socks a mask. The bourses are all cracking up!!

So not like hospital socks, thank God!

These socks are so thick and I cannot feel the treads on the bottoms when I walk!
I love these socks! I bought the “Boy Mom” socks for my daughter who is about to become a new mom to a boy May 19😁

Comfy and functional!

For anyone who hates cold weather and lives in a house or apartment with wooden floors, these are lifesavers!

I love these!!

I'm so happy they finally came out with ankle socks! My patient lives the frequent flyer socks I bought him last year these are cute and comfy.

Nurse approved!

Hospital socks are horrible, but these socks will make your hospital stay so much better. Theyre incredibly comfortable and warm without being too warm. There’s no seams to annoy you and you cant feel the non- stick bumps when you walk but theyre definitely non stick, just a higher end version than hospital non stick. Fortunately i ordered four pairs in the wrong size so i get to keep those and buy more to gift to my MIL for her upcoming surgery. I cant get over how good these feel on my feet. I have large calves and these arent binding at all, if that’s an issue for you.

F*cking Fabulous Hospital Grip Sock

Must haves!

I wore these yesterday for a heart Cath procedure. I'm in and out of the hospital, but these make it a bit more bearable,! The nurses thought they were funny. They are so soft and so well made. They did try to give me the standard issue socks, lol. The horrible no shape weird socks. I actually kept them for a gag gift. Can't wait to get more of these!

I Love love love these socks!

I stopped procrastinating and ordered some socks after a pulmonary embolism was discovered on Thanksgiving. I went in a couple days after I received them because I still was feeling off ( had a double ear infection at the time also so I wasn’t sure what was going on if it was illness related or PE related or blood thinner related, but Thanksgiving was enough to scare me straight for awhile). And every nurse that saw them loved them too!

Sock addiction is real

I bought these socks as Christmas gifts but now I don't want to give them out. They are amazingly comfortable. They make quite a statement piece at the airport. Thank you.

Hard to give away

What size should I buy?

What do different colored hospital socks mean?

If you look it up online, you will see different meanings for hospital grip sock colors. Generally, every hospital is different and may have a unique approach. The color that usually holds a consistent meaning across hospitals is yellow for patients who are considered a fall risk. Read the blog to learn more

Can I buy Dr. Socko if I'm not in the hospital?

Of course! We recommend grip socks for anyone in and out of the ER, in any slippery floor environment.

What are hospital socks? They don't exist where I live.

Hospital grip socks, otherwise known as non-slip/non-skid socks, are used in hospitals, clinics, and nursing homes to help patients prevent accidental falls, keep warm, and protect feet from bacteria. They are especially useful for elderly and patients in recovery. We've heard several requests for changes in the traditional hospital grip sock, like making it fitted, removing the toe seam, and creating fun designs. We've launched our own take on hospital grip socks based on this and hope you love it as much as the traditional ones!

Do you offer kids sizes?

At the moment we do not specialize in hospital grip socks for kids. In the future we hope to launch new designs catered towards children. However, our size small socks should fit youth shoe sizes 3.5Y-7Y.
