Slide foot in, secure toes.
Slide your foot inside the foot pocket. Secure toes so they fit comfortably.
Pull from cuff up over heel and leg.
Using both hands, pull from the cuff up over your heel and all the way up your leg.
Smooth creases, adjust length.
Smooth out any wrinkles or folds and ensure the cuff sits 1-2 fingers width distance below the crease of the knee.
Some FAQs
Are these medical-grade?
Medical-grade = 20 mmHg or more
Our Everyday Cotton Compression Sock is 15-20 mmHg so they are not considered medical-grade.
*We plan to launch a 20-30 mmHg medical-grade option soon.
What does mmHg stand for?
"mmHg" = millimeters of mercury
It's a unit of measurement used to determine the amount of pressure the socks apply to your legs. Typically displayed as one of the following:
- 15-20 mmHg: medium compression
- 20-30 mmHg*: moderate compression
- 30-40 mmHg*: strong compression
The 15-20 mmHg range is recommended for everyday wear, travel, and managing mild swelling or muscle fatigue.
*Considered medical-grade compression
How do I know my size?
You’ll find a full size chart linked right above the "Add to cart" button above. Below you'll find some helpful tips:
- For best foot fit: Simply choose the size that best matches your usual US shoe size.
- For best calf/cuff fit: Measure around widest part of your calf. If it measures 16" or more, we recommend choosing one of our wide-calf-friendly options.
Email kate@modecompression.com if you have any questions.
How are they supposed to fit and feel?
Your feet and toes should fit comfortably in the footbed. The toes should never feel cramped, the seams should never bulk at the sides and the heel should stay in place.
These should feel like a gentle squeeze for your feet and legs. The compression will be strongest at the ankle, gradually decreasing in pressure as it moves up the calf.
Who should wear these?
Anyone who stands or sits for long hours for work, those who struggle with foot or leg swelling, runners, frequent travelers, pregnant women, those with chronic conditions like POTs, lymphedema, edema or diabetes.
Why MODE?
Most compression socks are hot, stiff, and designed like they are something to be embarrassed about. These are not those.

Obsessed!! I recently bought the white & black socks for my travels. They were a lifesaver on my recent trip to India! I was five months pregnant — these socks felt amazing on my very swollen ankles & helped calm them down. Love how chic and simple the branding and design is too. I never resonated with any compression socks out there until I found these — they’re actually cute, not just functional. I’m sure I’ll be wearing these a lot these next few months and on all my long flights moving forward!
comfortable and nice fabric! breathable.
Really nice socks, and i love that they came in a wash bag!
My favourite compression socks of all time!! Would love to get ones in higher compression like 20-30mmHg in the future :)
Finally some compression socks I don't have to hide! So happy with these.
So freakin comfy and cute!!! No uncomfortable digging in the skin, the ruffles don't tickle the backs of my knees, and the socks are very well-made and not too thin by the toes! I have hypermobility and rely on thicker socks, especially those with reinforced toes, so these are a welcomed addition to my collection and I can't wait for more colors (like light blue) 🩵
So cute and the compression is perfect. Definitely see them becoming a staple piece when I'm wearing EGL.
SO COMFY.
These socks are extremely comfortable (once you get them on 😭) If I’m wearing long false nails it’s basically impossible to pry them up my legs. But they definitely help my feet and legs feel better after long days of standing/walking and super cute to boot!
Super cute and just the right amount of squeeze for my POTS.
My favourites, as always!
I'm a first year special education teacher and I heard compression socks would be good for someone who is on their feet all day at work. When I went looking for compression socks, I wanted a pair that was similar to my regular socks - athletic style, padded, and made with cotton. It turned out to be relatively difficult to find socks that fit my criteria but thankfully Mode checked all of these boxes. I am a guy so I was a little nervous to buy these because they are marketed towards women in women sizing. But, I'm so glad I decided to get them. My first day wearing Mode socks was also the first day I came home without aching feet. I will be buying more!
I really love these socks. the stitching pattern feels so comfortable and the compression level is higher than my other pairs making me feel even more supported during the day. the quality is clearly high, through many washes the seams and stitches look immaculate and the fabric has a high quality heavy weight feel to them.
Loved them! Went back and bought more. Look super cute and feel comfortable.
I absolutely swear by my Mode socks. The padded soles, the breathable cotton and the colours are incredible! By far the comfiest socks I’ve ever worn!
These socks are everything I was hoping they would be! They are comfortable, feel great, and are easy to wear even when it's hot outside.
The standard unisex compressions socks I had been wearing were too long and would rub the back of my knee and cause a lot of pain and itchiness.
These socks are the perfect height for me and are comfortable to wear for a long time. For reference, I am 5'5" and I wear a 9.5 size shoe. I bought these socks in medium.
Great quality snd cute- I can’t wait for the white restock!
I LOVE THEM. I will probably get a smaller size next time but i’m still very happy about the fit especially by the top/knee. It’s snug in all the right places and the craftsmanship is flawless. And the laundry bag was such a nice surprise! It’s very good quality and I love the color scheme of pink & red. Thank you so much! I plan to buy more in the very near future💖
My fourth order of these socks. Yay, compression socks I don't hate wearing. I don't wear anything else now! Six months of daily wear and they're in great condition. Breathable enough to wear in summer too!
excellent excellent socks and delivery, so cute and comfy
These are my favorite socks! I love having compression socks that just look like regular cute knee highs so much. Ive ordered multiple pair!
I really love these socks. First of all, they are so adorable. I'm really sad the white ones were sold out and you don't ship to Denmark. I really hope you will soon! I ordered a few pairs to my friends place while on vacation. I had a bit of leg pain and irritation on my 11h flight on my way to visit, but wearing my new pair of Mode compression socks on the way home I had zero issue! These all look amazing with my J-fashion and it was actually my bf who encouraged me to get compression socks for my leg discomfort and when I landed he asked if I had changed my mind on getting some because he didn't believe the cute pair of ruffle/frilled socks I was wearing wasn't just one of my usual pairs of socks.
Comfortable & the quality is great! The ruffles are sturdy and wont come off easily
Super cute and super comfy! Love the wide leg option! I’m gonna have to try out more from this brand!
These socks are adorable!
I need the high compression socks and i found Mode on instagram! They had the cutest socks made for the compression i need! I was sick of the plain boring regular compression that didnt look good with any of my outfits! So glad i found Mode!!!
Amazing! So cute and don't even look like compression socks!
These socks are absolutely adorable and very good quality, I love how thick the material is. I sized up so they wouldn't be too tight but I still get a good amount of compression with them without it being uncomfortable!
I think the ruffles are so cute! My issue is the sizing, on me they feel abit smaller than other brands I use like bombas. There are no returns or exchanges so that is abit unfortunate!
So sorry the socks didn't fit! Our customer service team will be in touch via email to make this right :)
Wore them all day during a heavy travel day and they were super comfortable. Can't wait to style them with more things!
