Reviews

THE SOCKS

"I bought (2) pair crew socks and (2) pair knee high socks. I absolutely LOVE them! They’re comfortable and are able to keep my toes warm. A SUGGESTION- Create a knee-high length for shorter people in the petite size. I’d like to get my 91 year old Mother a pair; who would appreciate a knee high length, however at her 5-foot height, the knee high length you offer would go clear up to the middle of her thighs."

Great Multi Purpose Socks

"I received a pair of Warrior sock Christmas of 2024 and it was a sock awakening. Since then and moving forward I will only purchase alpaca blend socks. These alpaca wool works socks are brilliant. Warm toes, they breathe and remain odor free. From here on out it's alpaca for me."

— SHAWN S. (5/5)

I love these socks!! They

"I love these socks!! They are so soft and warm. The knee high compression socks are probably too long for a shorter person. . . I am5'7 and they come over my knees. The work socks are fabulous. While they look bulky I had no problem fitting into my boots and shoes."

— ELIZABETH G. (5/5)

Perfect!

"The weight, thickness, and compression of the socks is perfect! Great value for the money. My feet don't get cold in snow, nor sweaty in the shop, and my calves don't have constriction rings when I take them off. DEFINITELY going to be buying more."

— AMY B. (5/5)

Great compression!!

"I LOVE these socks! I had previously tried compression socks and the left me with smelly feet, which has never happened to me, so I stopped wearing them. A friend had talked about these alpaca socks, so I thought I would give them a try. They are warm, compression is great as I am on my feet all day as a nurse & now my feet do not stink!"

Q&A

What is the compression rating in mmHg?
Thank you for reaching out regarding our compression socks! Our Warrior Compression Socks are designed to provide everyday compression at a level of 8-15mmHg. This means they offer the perfect amount of pressure to support your legs and feet. If you're looking for an everyday compression option, these socks are ideal. These compression socks are incredibly versatile and can be worn for various purposes, including running, work, pregnancy, traveling, and daily use. For optimal support, knee-high compression socks are recommended as they provide excellent support for the calves, ankles, and feet, effectively manage circulatory and swelling issues. If you've never worn compression socks before, it's important to note that they may initially feel tighter than what you're accustomed to. However, they should not be uncomfortably tight or feel like any ordinary pair of socks. The level of compression is subjective, but if you follow our size guide, you'll find a perfectly fitting pair that will effectively alleviate leg and foot discomfort at the end of the day. Prior to wearing medium compression or above, it is recommended to consult with a physician. We value your health and want to ensure that you find the right compression level that suits your needs. If you have any further questions or require additional assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.
What are the differences between your women’s compression work socks and the swell compression socks?
HI! We have two types of compression socks, well, in actuality only one, our SWELL Compression. These are true compression. The WRK2 and WRK3 - our Work Socks, are light compression and not the rated version that are recommended by health professionals, like the SWELL. Hope this helps! Warrior Alpaca Socks.
