Do not put the sleeves on over your socks. You can put socks on over the sleeves, but make sure that the socks are not so thick the that combination of the sleeves and socks does not make your shoes so tight that blood flow will be restricted.

To put the sleeve on, scrunch the sleeve together and begin to slip it over your foot. Let the front end of the sleeve go right after the base of your pinky toe and pull the rest of the sleeve over your foot and ankle. Adjust the sleeve as needed. The front end of the sleeve can be between 1-4 inches of the base of your pinky toe depending on comfort and the size of your foot.
