Why Our Socks Don't Suck!
Frequently Asked Questions
Most compression socks are stiff, clinical, and a pain to wear. NYG socks are the opposite—feather-soft, easy to put on, and actually stylish. We use real compression (15–20 mmHg) that supports tired legs, swollen ankles, and dizzy days—without the squeeze fight. Designed by people who’ve been there.
They are 15 – 20 mmHg, which means that they are a light compression. This is usually more than enough for people looking for pain relief and reduction in dizziness; however, if you have been prescribed a specific compression level you should follow your doctor’s guidance.
At the moment we only do one size of compression sock. They are between UK 3–14 (foot length 22-31.3cm). Just click on the 'size chart' button above the add to cart button.)
The maximum calf size is 15 inches (circumference). You can use the size chart to check that they will fit you.We are committed to offering inclusive, unisex compression socks but the world of sizing hasn’t yet caught up.
For the purposes of this chart we've used what would normally be referred to as "women's" shoe sizes. If you typically wear men's shoes or have wider feet, we recommend using the foot length as a guide.
If you are looking for a larger size compression sock we don’t currently have these but you can sign up to the plus size waitlist and will be notified when we increase the size range.
Yes—NYG socks are designed to be easy to put on, even with limited mobility or low energy. The soft, stretchy fabric slides on without a fight—no tugging, no wrestling, no tight cuffs. Support that works with your body, not against it.
You can wear them for long stretches—some people even wear them in bed. But we recommend giving your legs a break overnight unless your doctor says otherwise.
Don’t wear the same pair more than a day. Swap them out daily and wash before re-wearing to keep the compression doing its job.
If you’re new to compression (especially with POTS), start slow—try an hour at first, then build up. Some bodies need a bit of time to adjust. That’s totally normal.
Yes, our compression socks are perfect for long flights! They help improve circulation, reduce swelling, and prevent discomfort during long periods of sitting.
Yes, NYG socks offer gentle 15–20 mmHg compression, which is often suitable for people with diabetes, varicose veins, or mild edema. They’re soft, non-restrictive, and easy to wear, even on sensitive days. That said, if you have medical concerns, it’s always best to check with your doctor first.
For best long-term results, wash at 30 degrees, with similar colours, do not tumble try. Wash them after each use, i.e. do not use them on consecutive days without washing them first. Turn inside out before washing. Avoid bleech and fabric softner.

Not only do these socks look amazing, they fit beautifully too. I have skinny ankles and WIDE calves so I was worried they would be tight and uncomfortable at the top – but not, even my chunky legs are comfy!
Bought these for my midwife daughter as she works long shifts. She loves them and the design is so cheerful.
I’d tried compression socks before. Mostly they were boring and ugly – but I liked the feel. I found one other brand that produced cool-looking compression socks. I liked the way the fabric felt to the touch, but the quality wasn’t great.
Then I tried NYG. Game-changer. I’m in the process of replacing all my socks. I’m hoping I never have to wear any other socks ever again.
My one complaint is a small one. I’d take half a star off if that was allowed. The sizing across the patterns is somewhat inconsistent. My favourite pattern is the rainbow – but those are the smallest socks. They’re slightly too short for my long legs, meaning they end up sliding down. The dog ones are bigger than the rainbow ones, but still a bit small. The rest are perfect, size-wise.
Firstly they are adorable!! Perfect for my 12.5 hour shifts in the Emergency Department. I did 23,000 in one shift so around 11 miles. They stopped me from aching and I had less swelling. They held up well to a very tough test. I need more cute & adorable nurse/doc themed socks please @not your grandma’s.
These are great, a cute design and very comfortable to wear.
