Relieving pain? 🤔 I would have expected the marketing to be about the anti microbial properties…

I don’t give a damn about the pseudoscience bull about copper relieving pain; but I figured it’s stronger than cotton and it hasn’t let me down in the wear and tear department.

Yep. It’s been years, but I remember seeing ads for and being sold on store shelves these copper bracelets that were like those medical alert bracelets, but copper, as well as copper threaded compression socks both being advertised as relieving pain, curing sickness, removing toxins from the body, and all that other snake-oily bull that’s been perpetuated about copper since mankind has been using the metal.

Yeah I assume compression socks would be there. They’re useful for people with circulation problems

Anyone sitting or standing the whole day at work is very prone to get circulation problems later in life. I don’t know how good these socks are for prevention though.

Try Darn Tough socks, they have a lifetime guarantee.
If your socks ever wear out you can send them back and they will replace them for free, no receipt or anything else needed.
The extra initial cost has been worth it for me

100% worth it. I got my first pair 3 years ago and only just wore a hole in them. Gonna send them in for my new pair soon.
