Wow! Wish I'd heard of these 10 years ago
I've had these for about a month, and my longstanding achilles tendonitis and plantar fasciitis went away after 4 days. Once you find out how to wear these comfortably, they totally rock. The keys for me were: 1) not to tighten the calf straps too much, 2) to keep the calf straps at least an inch away from your knees so they don't pinch, and 3) to tighten the toe strap so your foot is at a right angle from my calves, not tighter. That way you can walk to the bathroom in the middle of the night without taking them off. The socks really only work if you can wear them all night. I won't go to sleep without them!
