Any suggestions for compression socks and other compression garments of similar quality to darn tough socks?

In 2018 I transitioned to wearing regular darn tough socks, and the ones the dog didn’t eat are still in good shape. It appears that at one point they did make compression socks, but they no longer do.

They have a blog entry directing people to the brand CEP https://darntough.com/blogs/the-alternate-stitch/compression-socks-supportive-socks

Any other brands worth looking into?

    I’ve been using socks from here: https://procompression.com/

    However I don’t think this type of socks is really BiFL. The elastic in them will get tired, and I have had several doctors recommend replacing them after 6 months because of it. I tend to agree with those docs as I have found that the elastic does stretch over time and they do not have nearly the compression after 6-12 months than when new.

    I ended up going with men’s sockwell elevation firm compression socks from Duluth Trading Co. So far so good, they are comfortable, didn’t fall apart on the first wash, and are helping a lot.
