Jobst Relief Stockings

La marca relief de Jobst viene mucho más resistente, es mejor en mi opinión respecto a otras...

I am a man who is 5' 7" tall and weighs about 140 pounds. I purchased a medium size and they fit like I want them too. I went by the guidelines shown and it worked out perfectly. I have included photos of the sizes of my ankle, calf and thigh for you to go by. Sorry if some of the numbers are upside down. It looked right to me looking down at it when taking the photos! These could fit a little lower on my leg, but I prefer them pulled up high. The compression seems just right for everyday use. A note for women... these are thick stockings and not a 'fashion' type, but that is not what they were designed for anyway. I have had spider veins treated in the past and wanted these to help prevent them. In my case, nobody will ever know I'm wearing them since I always wear jeans at work or in public, even though I am wearing shorts in these photos (around the house). I am familiar with this type of hosiery since I had to wear tighter ones when I had sclerotherapy done several years ago. The higher compression ones would make my ankles hurt after hours of use. These are not quite that tight and should be much more comfortable at work when I want to use them. These Jobst stockings are heavy weight weave and have good stitching at the top as you can see from one of my photos. A tip for men interested in this type of stocking...get used to shaved legs. Not shaving looks funny through them especially the tan colored ones if you have thick, dark hair, but they do come in black. However, not shaving with support stockings can promote more ingrown hairs, so it is up to the individual taste and experience with your own hair as to which way to go. Final note: I have only had these for one day, but they have had no trouble staying in place. If anything changes in this regard after wearing them a while and even after washing, I will update. UPDATE 1: have worn these three times now for 9-12 hours each time. Have had absolutely no slippage.

Highly recommended. This thigh high style are so much more comfortable, and slip down very little. Wore them traveling by plane. Very helpful.

llego en excelentes condiciones y coincide con lo publicado, excelente calidad

Be sure to 1) measure carefully for the size, 2) watch the youtube video on how to put them on ("donning Jobst thigh high compression stocking"), and 3) put them on first thing in the morning. If you do those 3 things, these will work. I got them for post-surgery, a broken leg repair. The beige is not pretty ( looks like an old school ice skating tight), but I didn't want black for summer. The only problem is they have the care tag sewn into the thigh band and it is very annoying. It took some time to take it out without destroying the seam. These are much better than compression socks I have tro3d for travel. Those were always too tight and too hard to put on.
