I’ve been wearing them for a few years after it was suggested to me by a senior captain. Recommended to me to start wearing sooner than later as more of a preventative measure. I’m definitely a fan and notice a difference. I’ve been wearing the Travelsox brand but tried the SB Sox recently.

It takes some time getting used to putting them on. However, at the end of the day, I really notice the difference.
