There are varying degrees of compression, varying materials in the socks themselves, and different calf widths available. Has your doctor or podiatrist recommended them? Initially, it might be best to talk with knowledgeable staff at a place like Home Health Care (on Victoria) or Rolling Spokes (downtown) for a good first pair.

You should have your ABPI done at your Dr office to see how many mmHg is recommended for you or if you have any contraindications. Then go to a pharmacy for proper measurement/sizing.
