CEP Men's Achilles Support Short Compression Socks

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Did not help. Made it worse

These socks are amazing! Definitely give you the much support needed for the achilles area!

I’ve worn this several times on longer walks. I feel like it misses the mark, literally: the padded support does not go low enough down the heel. Rather than protect the tendon, it seems to irritate it. I love CEPs low cut light weight socks, but the Achilles support sock a bust for me

I am a USSF/High School/D1 College football (soccer) referee with nearly 30 years of officiating who regularly runs 40 miles per week and well over 1,500 miles per year. Yearly, after the challenging fall season, my Achilles tendons we're inflamed until an MLS referee and close friend recommended these socks swearing that they would eliviat the pain within a week. I skeptically trusted him (not lack of trusting him... but paying $40+ bucks for any socks is a leap of faith!) and now I own 4 pair and I am virtually pain free year round for several years! I am only writing this because I just purchased a new pair and they asked me to provide a review. I just turned 62 and still get top level USSF centers (NYC Cosmopolitan League... more USA National Champions then any other league in America) PSAL (NYC Public HS) Championships and D1 College matches as I am free to put the pedal to the metal without concern as I am confident I will no longer have the intense pain I was forced to withstand several years ago (And they are durable... I still wear my original pair on rotation!) before purchasing these miracle pain relievers. I am not saying it is guaranteed to cure everyone's pain but it certainly did mine (and several others I shared with) and allowed me to continue being involved at a consistent and top level in the sport I adore!

I wasn't sure what to expect, but the socks made a noticeable difference in terms of making my achilles feel more comfortable to run on!

Did not help the achiilles pain.

I very rarely get blisters, but did a race and in less than 20 miles I had hot spots all over my feet. I took them off and was able to cover my feet with KT tape, but they were uncomfortable until I was able to get to a drop bag and change into some different socks. They’re amazing for my Achilles, but not worth the blisters.

ok

Great product. Socks fit well, are comfortable and hold up well over time.

Amazing how a silly little sock can transform a career! I have been refereeing soccer matches for decades and thought I was finished because of terrible achilles tendon pain but these expensive little socks are worth every penny as I have absolutely NO PAIN!!! Sounds crazy but it worked for my friend who recommended them to me and they have remarkably worked for me as well!

Good Achilles tendinitis supported

used during softball, ankles were really sore - but with these support socks was able to grind thru a bunch of games with no problem

I feel it gives me the support I need.

Great support

About a month ago I purchased the Achilles Support Short socks together with the low-cut socks and together they seem to help with my Achilles Tendonitis I have played a couple of rounds of golf without issues

Bought as a gift for my husband. He has several pair. Loves them!

I wasn’t exactly sure this was what I wanted when I first tried them on. Maybe my injury was a little too fresh. I didn’t feel like they were supportive enough. Now that I’ve been rehabbing for a few weeks I see that they are in fact supportive and really offer me a little confidence that I don’t otherwise have yet with my tendinitis still bothering me. I’ll probably be using these once I’m ready to start running again along with my CEP calf sleeves. These have been great.

Awesome support - I highly recommend!!!

Have helped reduce pain

Great product, still recovering from Achilles tendonosis. I would like a similar support that was over the calf.
