VIM & VIGR

I am a nurse and have worn compression socks off and on during my career. I u sweat and the importance and can attest to feeling better when I wear them. However, they are ugly. The newer version are sportier but still not fashionable to me. Vim&Vigr has found the magical combination of healthy compression and fun fashion! Wearing scrubs to work is not glamorous but my socks have always been a way to exhibit my individuality. Thank you for helping people everywhere accomplish this!!

I have noticed that my legs are less fatigued and less likely to cramp if I wear the leggings during long hikes, bike rides and strenuous workouts. I now have 3 pairs so I don't have to wash them daily. They have made a world of difference in how I feel after exercising. It feels like I haven't even worked out! I've also worn my socks on airline flights. Its supposed to help reduce the chance of blood clots when compression hose are worn. I'm quite healthy and don't have a tendency toward blood clots, but since I'm in my late 60s I also don't want to risk spoiling my travel. By wearing the socks in addition to moving around as much as possible, I find that my legs aren't as tired and I have no ankle swelling after a flight, especially international flights.

I love my “knee socks” and the fit M was fine for my size 9 foot. I bought the same size for my husband as he has thin calves, much thinner than mine, but he wears a size 10 shoe. I think I have to buy a larger size for him to get the sock on his foot but afraid it won’t be that tight over the calf. You need a size for men with a bigger foot but thin calves! A medium plus or a large small.

I received gloomily the news a few years ago that I would need to begin wearing compression sox: enter Vim & Vigr. They fit, they look great, and most important they've solved--to the extent possible--my venous insufficiency. Thank you V & V.

My compression knee socks help so much. I wish I had tried them sooner.
