What's my size?
Committing to a life of dance can be as exhausting as it is rewarding. From rigorous rehearsals to executing your final performances, your body is subject to a lot of wear and tear, especially your legs. This means leg and ankle soreness is likely a regular part of your life.
Compression socks are an effective way to relieve achy legs, but they hardly ever work as advertised. Some are too tight, some provide inconsistent pressure, and others make it feel like you might as well be wearing plain tube socks.
At Nurse Yard, our compression socks for dancers are a cut above.
We’ve addressed many of the issues that dancers experience when trying to find quality compression socks. Our graduated pressure design ensures consistent compression from calf to toe, our cushioning materials control blisters, and our non-slip liner keeps your socks up throughout the most intense dances.
When you’re dancing, you need to know you can rely on your legs. With the help of Nurse Yard’s compression socks, you’ll be able to maintain the poise and energy required to nail the most demanding dance routines.
How Nurse Yard’s Compression Socks for Dancers Differ
The majority of compression socks don’t actually provide the support that dancers need. Whether it’s inconsistent pressure or constant slippage, other compression socks rarely ever stick the landing. At Nurse Yard, our compression socks for dancers are designed with the total comfort and satisfaction of dancers in mind.
It all starts with our 20-30 mmHg compression, which delivers consistent pressure from foot to calf. From there, our comfortable design ensures your legs won’t feel suffocated while trying to complete a demanding performance. You may even forget you’re wearing compression socks at all.
Our socks provide pain relief like few other compression socks can. Your body and mind will feel the difference during every dance routine, allowing you to focus more on your next move and less on the discomfort in your legs.
In addition to helping dancers, our compression socks also benefit basketball players, nurses, seniors, teachers, hikers, runners, ice hockey players, flight attendants, pregnant women, hairdressers, and conditions like edema, neuropathy, plantar fasciitis, arthritis, diabetes, and shin splints.

Common Questions
How Do Compression Socks Help Dancers?
Nurse Yard’s compression socks are the secret to painless legs for dancers. With the graduated pressure of our socks, you’re able to enjoy even blood flow throughout your legs and feet. This means less soreness while you dance and less aching in the days after a performance.
What Does Nurse Yard’s Compression Sock Design Hack Do?
At Nurse Yard, our design hack for more comfortable and effective compression socks can be found in the structure and support of our socks. From the durable materials we use to make our socks to our comprehensive arch support, we prioritize quality over everything else.
As a result, you don’t have to worry about sore legs or feet that ache all day and night. Move through your day with greater comfort, and take on every dance with increased energy and confidence.
How Do I Know What Size of Compression Sock to Get?
Please refer to the sizing guide below to choose the best compression sock size for you. For the most satisfying fit, measure around your calf with a tape measure and select the size that fits your measurements.
This size chart does what it can to account for all body types. If you are displeased with how your socks fit, please reach out to Nurse Yard, and we can arrange an exchange.
Like most other clothing, your ideal compression sock sizing depends on how you prefer compression socks to fit. If you prefer more room in the foot and toe area, you may want to purchase a larger size than you would for regular socks. If you prefer a more snug fit, you may want to size down.

I have been wearing these sox for two weeks now, and have been so pleased with the results. No more swollen feet and ankles, and that achy heavy feeling in my legs is gone.

The core compression socks have provided the pressure and support needed following a surgery that left me with circulation pain in my right leg. I wear the right sock constantly. The core sock seems to have a bigger “toe box” and fits better than the original. I messed up an order and the customer service department was most gracious and generous in their return policy. I now have half a dozen pairs. They wash well and dry in the dryer.

The feel firm in the right spots. I’ll be ordering more. I do wish the very top part had maybe a silk or tad more stretch

I am a 77 year old female who highly recommends these socks. I have 4 pair of the core compression socks. I love the fit, easy on & off. The seam in the toe is far enough from the bend in my toes that it does not aggravate my toes when wearing shoes, unlike other brands. They are fun stockings with the design & color selection. Most importantly, my legs feel great at the end of the day, no swelling. Easy online purchase, great price & prompt delivery.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We are thrilled to hear that our Nurse Yard CORE Compression Socks have helped with your leg swelling and fit comfortably. Our team works hard to ensure that our socks are easy to wear and have a fun design. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to continue providing you with an excellent experience.
