FAQs
Are these stockings suitable for sleeping?
Yes, they are designed for day and night use, though you should consult your doctor if you have specific circulation conditions.
What does 15-20 mmHg mean?
This indicates the level of pressure measured in millimeters of mercury, which is considered a moderate, therapeutic level for daily support.
How often should I replace them?
Depending on daily usage and washing frequency, replace them every 3 to 6 months to ensure the compression level remains effective.
Can I wear them under regular socks?
Yes, you can wear regular socks over them, provided the additional layer does not restrict your circulation further.
What is the benefit of the toe hole?
The toe hole allows for quick circulation checks by a healthcare provider without the need to slide the entire stocking off.
Troubleshooting
Stocking rolls down at the top
Ensure the skin is clean and free of lotions or oils before application, as these can make the fabric slide.
Difficulty putting them on
Try using rubber gloves for better grip on the fabric, which makes it easier to distribute the compression evenly without pulling.
Leg feels numb or tingling
The stocking may be too tight or incorrectly positioned; remove immediately and check for signs of bunching or incorrect sizing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best results, ensure the stockings are pulled up smoothly over the calf without bunching, which can create localized pressure points.
- Placement: Sit down, reach inside the stocking, and gather the fabric toward the heel.
- Application: Slide your foot in, then gradually ease the material up the leg, smoothing it as you go.
- Care: Hand-wash in lukewarm water with mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach. Air dry flat to preserve the compression elasticity.
- Compatibility: These are unisex in nature and work well with most standard footwear, though open-toe or compression-friendly shoes are recommended for comfort.
