I teach, and work in a restaurant. I’m middle aged. So I don’t cheer or compete on any athletic team. But tall compression socks don’t work in hot and humid spring and summer heat (I’m often outdoors or in non-climate controlled spaces.) (Tall socks have always lead to skin irritations when warn in hot humid environments for a full day.) These socks are great! Obviously they don’t offer as much compression as a knee sock but they do the job well enough that I have energy and no pain at the end of the day (which I’m very thankful for as a single mom who does not get to rest at the end of her work day.)
I have been suffering from the effects of nerve damage on my ankle, foot, and toes. These socks give my foot a stability I didn’t think possible. I’m very happy and I’m going to order a few more pair.
I bought a few pairs because I have problems with my foot/ankle. These hold my foot and ankle very well and provide comfort.
y daughters tried the Apolla Turning Sole socks and fell in love immediately. First thing they noticed? The bright pink color. As a dance mom I can confirm that color absolutely matters to a seven year old and these delivered.
Beyond the look they are genuinely functional. We have been using them as a replacement for jazz shoes during home practice and conventions and they work perfectly. They are comfortable, easy to throw in the dance bag, and my girls said they felt more secure and confident turning in them.
If you are looking for a practical and fun alternative to jazz shoes for conventions or home practice these are it. My daughters are converts and honestly so am I.
My 16 year old son loves these....and he generally never loves anything his ballet teacher-mom suggests. I expected the usual eye roll after I bought these for him to help with ankle and foot pain he experiences playing basketball and tennis, but instead I got, "mom, these are terrific. Buy me another pair please." His hypermobile ankles are getting the extra support he needs and also allowing him enough freedom of movement for his sport. Terrific product
I have worn these socks for my dance competitions and conventions and have been grateful for their support in protecting my feet and ankles on long dance days.
Great for on the go all day. No achy feet. Will look at other compressionsocks with Apolla.
I have plantar fasciitis and these are the best socks I’ve found. So comfortable and made my feet feel better. I’ve bought 4 pair and will buy more.
My kiddo has chronic ankle pain, but using the Joules has helped her ankles handle color guard practice and competition with ease. I’m so glad we saw an ad and decided to give these a shot! Even her physical therapist and coach are now fans.
I love the support these socks offer! It took me a bit to get used to them, but they provide excellent support and I love that they are crew length! However, they IMMEDIATELY pilled and got loose strings! These socks come at such a high price point that I am honestly disappointed. I wore them once to work and even before washing them, they look like I’ve worn them for months! 4/5 of the pairs I bought have had this issue! Lower the price point, or improve the longevity of the product.
My 10 year old loves how it keeps her ankles protected. Will be purchasing more pairs.
I absolutely love my joule shocks! Returning to ballet after many years, and now with an old ankle injury and plantar fascitis, these give me the perfect amount of extra support and light compression while dancing without being restrictive, and they fit easily into my ballet shoes. Highly recommend, wish I found these sooner!!
I purchased the black socks for my daughter and she absolutely loves them!
These socks feel really great all day! I will get more eventually.
These are the best compression options I have found. I am 5’ 9” and 120 lbs. I have stick legs and all the compression socks I tried did not go up high enough and slid down pretty quickly. I used to be a ballerina back in the day and figured compression leg warmers built for ballerinas would fit me better and they do! They have just the right compression and are not itchy at all. I do get overwhelmed by clothing sometimes and these worked out perfectly. My only complaint is the weird hard seam by the foot. Would be even better without that.
I recently got diagnosed with POTS and hyper-mobility and these give me the perfect support!
I originally purchased these socks for my daughter who is a competitive dancer and on her feet constantly, especially in tap. I decided to try a pair for myself as I have high arches and frequent muscle cramps when I wear shoes for many house. These socks are awesome! I cannot give enough praise for how they have helped ease the daily pain I feel at the end of the day. They are so terrific that I bought some for y husband to try. He was skeptical at first but the end of the first day, he was sold. Now he tells everyone about how great they are.
I'm a veterinarian, so I'm on my feet most of the day. The AMP provides the right kind of support for my feet so that by the end of the day I still feel like I can do other things.
