Compression Stockings are knit in a special way using elastic yarns.
They gently compression and squeeze your leg the most at the ankle, and lightens up towards the top. That’s what makes compression stockings “graduated”. Graduated means that the amount of compression changes gradually from the ankle to the top of the stocking.
Compression socks squeeze your legs and help increase circulation from your feet back up the legs to your body.
Veins that are worn out or damaged have a harder time returning blood back to your heart from your feet. That causes swelling, skin changes, infections, blood clots, and leg ulcers.
Wearing compression stockings helps prevent and manage those kinds of symptoms caused by poor circulation.

IMPORTANT SIZING NOTE:
These compression socks provide firm support and are significantly tighter than regular socks. To ensure a comfortable fit, we recommend ordering ONE SIZE UP if:
1. Your measurement is between sizes;
2. You have wide feet or a high instep (difficult to pull over heel);
3. You are wearing compression socks for the first time;
4. You simply prefer a less constricting fit.
Unsure about your size? Please contact our support team before purchasing for expert advice.
Measure circumference at the narrowest part, just above the ankle bone.
Find the widest part of your calf and measure around it.
Measure the widest part right under your buttocks.
Stand straight. Measure distance from buttocks to floor.
We maintain strict quality control to ensure every product is perfect. However, we are humans, and occasionally mistakes happen.
If you are not 100% satisfied, we've got you covered.

Compression stockings are a great source of relief for leg swelling and circulation issues. To ensure they last and maintain their medical effectiveness,it is imperative to wash them after each use.
Why wash daily?
Washing restores the garment's elasticity, ensuring you get the proper compression and preventing them from rolling down. It also removes built-up oils and sweat that can cause fibers to tear.
Fill a basin withcool water and add a mild detergent. Dip the stockings in and let them soak for 5 to 10 minutes.* Note: Never use hot water as heat damages the elastic fibers.
Gently rub the stockings to remove dirt and oil.Do not pull or stretch the fabric excessively while wet, as this can result in an imperfect fit later.
Rinse until water runs clear. Gently squeeze out excess water.Do not wring or twist them. Lay flat to dry or hang in a cool, ventilated place away from direct heat or sunlight.
Have questions about compression socks? We've got answers. If you need specific advice, please feel free to contact us directly. Here are the most common questions from our customers.
Sizing is the most important part of buying compression socks. Unlike regular socks, they are sized by leg measurements, not just shoe size.
Pro Tip: Measure your legs first thing in the morning when swelling is at its lowest.
For Knee Highs: Measure your ankle circumference at the narrowest point and your calf at the widest point.
For Thigh Highs & Pantyhose: You will also need to measure your upper thigh circumference and the length of your leg from the floor to the crease of your buttocks.
Check our size chart in the photo gallery to match your measurements.
If your doctor prescribed compression socks, please follow their specific recommendation regarding the level (mmHg).
Generally speaking:
Mild (15-20 mmHg): Great for travel, standing all day, mild swelling, and fatigue.
Moderate (20-30 mmHg): The most common medical grade. Ideal for varicose veins, edema (swelling), post-surgery recovery, and moderate symptoms.
Firm (30-40 mmHg): Usually for severe swelling, chronic venous insufficiency, or DVT management. Use under medical guidance.
The rule of thumb is: The compression must cover the area where the problem exists.
Knee Highs: Best if your swelling or pain is located in the ankles or calves only. This is the easiest style to put on and fit.
Thigh Highs or Pantyhose: Necessary if you have varicose veins or swelling above the knee, or if you need full-leg support.
Rolling typically happens for two reasons: the size is too small (too tight at the top) or they are pulled up too high.
Placement is key: For knee highs, the top band should sit 1-2 finger widths below the crease of your knee. Do not pull them into the joint. Smooth out any wrinkles with the palms of your hands.
If they still roll, double-check your measurements against our size chart. If your legs are wider at the top, consider a style with a silicone dot band for extra grip.
To maintain the elasticity (compression), we recommend washing them daily or after each use. This removes skin oils that can break down the fibers.
Best Practice: Hand wash in cool or warm water with a mild detergent and air dry. Never use hot water or bleach.
If you must machine wash, use a "delicate" cycle and a lingerie bag to prevent snags. Avoid machine drying, especially for stockings with silicone bands, as heat can damage the grip.
Therapeutically, there is no difference in compression performance. It is purely personal preference.
Open Toe: Great for larger shoe sizes, people with toe conditions (like bunions or ingrown nails), or for wearing with sandals in summer. It keeps feet cooler.
Closed Toe: Feels more like a standard sock and offers full foot coverage.
Yes! All our compression socks and stockings are sold as a pair (left and right leg), unless explicitly stated otherwise in the listing title.
Absolutely. You don't need a medical condition to benefit from compression.
Travelers: Wearing them on flights helps prevent "Economy Class Syndrome" (DVT) and keeps legs fresh.
Workers: If you stand or sit at a desk all day, compression prevents blood from pooling in the legs, reducing evening fatigue and heaviness.
Athletes: Many runners use them to improve circulation and reduce recovery time after workouts.
With proper care (hand washing and air drying), compression garments typically maintain their effective medical compression for 4 to 6 months.
Because the elastic fibers gradually relax over time, we recommend replacing them every few months to ensure you are getting the full therapeutic benefit.
While safe for most, compression is not recommended for certain conditions. Do not wear if you have severe arterial disease (ischemia), uncontrolled congestive heart failure, or untreated septic phlebitis.
If you have skin infections, neuropathy (loss of sensation), or are unsure, please consult your physician before wearing medical-grade compression.
