Description
These mid-thigh stockings are designed to manage the symptoms of varicose veins by providing controlled, graduated compression to the legs. This helps to squeeze the veins, supporting the normal backflow of blood toward the heart and preventing the pooling of blood in the legs, which is a primary cause of varicose veins. Made from advanced microfibre, they offer a smooth finish for comfortable daily wear. The Class 1 compression (18-21 mmHg) is suitable for mild varicoses and feelings of heaviness in the legs.
Graduated Compression: The stockings apply the highest pressure at the ankle, which gradually decreases up the leg towards the thigh, promoting upward blood flow.
Class 1 Pressure: Provides mild compression (18-21 mmHg) suitable for addressing early varicose veins, mild swelling, and tired, aching legs.
Microfibre Material: Constructed from advanced microfibre for durability, elasticity, and a smooth finish for comfortable daily use.
Mid-Thigh Design: Offers compression and support extending from the ankle up to the mid-thigh area.
Durable Construction: Made with German machinery and imported raw materials, these stockings are designed to retain their compression effectiveness over time with proper care.
