Pros: Well made

Cons: Good luck getting them over your heel- may need one of those shoehorn step on tools
I can't necessarily discuss longevity, and I don't think I could wear a large as a daily sock, however these are fantastic for running. I have pretty large calves and was worried about tightness, however during any kind of physical activity these perform wonderfully. The socks are well made symmetrical length, as well as moderately adjustable (pinch and twist around) to get a perfect fit. Then they stay where you put them. If I had these when I ran my half marathon a few weeks ago, I would have felt much less beat up afterwards. Looking forward to my next half wearing these.
Considering my upper leg girth and moderate difficulty putting them on, I wouldn't want to wear them every day, but they are indeed extremely comfortable once they're in place and don't feel like some of the cheaper banded socks that can cut into your leg.
They come to just under my knee joint which is perfect for lower leg pressure needed during long study sessions or running that is getting more abusive to my body as I age. I bought a couple of different brands to try out when I ordered these, and these seem to be the most well made throughout, as well as most supportive for physical activity. I did opt for another brand for my 18 hour study sessions to prevent ankle edema just for ease of wearing over multiple days.
I'm a fairly restrictive buyer. I also don't review many products because they simply do what they say they will, which they should. These impressed me, so I'm reviewing them. Hope I helped someone make a decision

Overall Good, Some Issues
The photo is what the inside of the sock looks like. I should post a pic of the pressure marks caused by all of this unnecessary seamwork in the pressure socks - not a pretty sight, and very painful for some time after removing the socks. However, while wearing there was no discomfort and only minor irritation of them becoming too tight around my toes. Turning them inside out eliminates the issue of pressure sores but leaves you with unsightly fuzzy seams all over your socks. The price is right though, so if appearance doesn't matter they are still a good buy. I am also concerned that the material is so thin. Will it develoo an exit for my big toe the second time I wear them? Will the pressure socka lose their pressure when I was them? Time will tell. To be fair, they did boast of thin, beeathable material but my black socks are almost translucent - not typical of athletic garmets.I do have to give credit where it is due also. These socks perform as well as one of the major brands commonly prescribed by doctors, which I have used previously, and are both far cheaper and far more comdortable than said name brand. They also use standard sizing, unlike some of their competitors, which is a nice touch.Overall, I give them three stars and assuming the pair I bought holds up reasonably well and their price remains low I will probably purchase again.
