Putting on graduated compression socks doesn’t have to be hard. In fact, we bet you’ll master the process in one sitting. We recommend trying this first with moderate compression socks and building your way up to firm compression.
Insert your arm all the way into the sock grab the heel of the sock with your hand.
Grab the end of the sock and fold the sock back until the heel of the sock is visible: the sock is now partially inside out.
Put your foot into the sock and place your heel exactly into the heel of the sock.
Roll back the sock over the ankle and calf and enjoy the comfort of True Compress socks all day long.

Whether you’ve worn knee high compression socks for years or you’re taking a crash course in compression socks 101, learning how to put on compression socks the right way will save you from a lot of stretching, pulling, and wondering why your heel didn’t make it into the heel pocket.
We recommend following the four-step process above when putting on compression socks in knee high. With the sock right side up (heel pocket pointing down), simply stick your thumbs down both sides of the sock, slide your toes down to the toe pocket, and pull on, ensuring your heel is snuggly situated within the heel pocket. Voilà!
