Hi hi,
I've curious too! saw it at watsons. $47 bucks or so. Any reviews so far? It says Compression so i'm wondering if it means that it's mainly "compressing" the fats hence once u stop wearing it'll "bounce" back?

[dovespaniel]

Bounce back? Oh no i hope not!

I've seen NRWZD shared about this before (but dont think it was Scholl). But at almost $50, kinda steep isnt it?

[retrosixties]

am also interested to get it! seems like a wonder product ... or too good to be true? anyone tried it? how does it work?

[veraclari]

Hi Dovespaniel, yes, i thought it was pretty ex to give it a try... bought lots of slimming nonsense but didn't really work... soemtimes it's coz i'm too lazy to continue hahahha sadly.
any cotters have reviews please share?

Woah, that's expensive. Was planning to get it after seeing the ad for improving blood circulation.

[elvellon]

I just bought 2 packs last wkend to try out since they were on 20% off~
not too sure how long will it take to see the effects..
Will take the before & after measurements and update ...

I don't think the Qtto socks is for compressing the fats, more like improving blood circulation and reducing water rentention and other causes of swelling in your legs. I remember reading a number of blogs on this. :3

I got a pair from Watsons few days ago, here are my measurements of the widest part of my calves so far (rounded up to nearest 0.5cm):

29/05/10 (PM) - Left 35.5cm, Right 35cm
30/05/10 (AM) - Left 35cm, Right 34.5cm
30/05/10 (PM) - Left 35.5cm, Right 35.5cm
31/05/10 (AM) - Left 35cm, Right 35cm

The immediate effect is obvious (0.5cm), but so far the effect doesn't seem to last. Will continue monitoring...

i quite interested too but i got musular calves, don think will work , more ofr water retention

[SweEetZ]

Anyone tried it yet? Apparently, it's the hottest item in Japan.

[dovespaniel]

Actually i dont expect it to do much to the fats in our legs. To reduce water retention sounds good enough for me. Keep the reviews coming

i search it in taiwan web also, quite highly raved! And saw it being featured in jap magazine..so i Got one pair to try and because my feet were always aching , after taking it off in the morning , my feet don't feel pain anymore compared to when i don't wear it..

And its not very tight either, very comfortable to wear (:

i bought these on my trip to Japan last August for 2,000 jpy cos i got tired achy legs from all that walking, been wearing them since. didn't know that they are supposed to make my legs look slimmer so didn't measure them (i bought them blindly in japan, lol). after a few months they stretch out a little though, i got them in 'M' and now they're a little loose. the only thing i don't like is that the fabric is a little rough for me.

[tangtang]

we can only wear them to sleep?

suitable to wear out?

[tiggercheeze]

dont think u can wear out. it would be rather warm...
material quite thick
