Compression Socks

I have decided to bite the bullet and buy some compressions socks. I knew of 2 brands right away; InVigorators Sock and CEP Compression Socks. Those are thanks to two other blogs I read and they had reviews.

Then I started looking around. One of those two blogs also reviewed Recovery Socks and SIGVARIS Athletic Recovery Sock.

Now I'm very confused. They are, of course, all different prices.

Store links:
InVigorators $24.99 (66% nylon, 20% cotton, 14% spandex)
CEP Compression Socks $53.99 (85% Polyamid, 15% Elasthan)
Recovery Socks $34.90 (wicking material)
SIGVARIS Recovery Sock $29.21 (cotton, not good for running, post-run only)

Now while I can't say that I will or won't run in these (I'm not afraid of looking funny while running, thus the mix-match loud outfits & bands around both knees), I don't think that I want the cotton ones at all. So luckily, that's one off the list.

I can't make up my mind. Anybody out there have any information/reviews/suggestions?
