How Do the Sigvaris Stockings Work?

Conditions such as lymphoedema can be occur when blood does not flow from your extremities as freely as it should. To combat this, Sigvaris Compression Stockings apply graded compression to your legs, which helps to encourage the flow of blood from your feet and legs.

How Easy Are These Stockings to Put On?

By their nature, compression stockings can be a little difficult to put on. However the double-covered inlaid yarns used in the Sigvaris Style Stockings allow them to glide on and off with ease.

What Is the Benefit of Open Toe Stockings?

You may prefer wearing open toe compression stockings if you want to avoid excess pressure in your toes. They are also more suitable for wearing open toe shoes and for use in hot weather as they improve air flow to and from your feet.

Which Level of Compression Do I Need?

These stockings have a compression level of RAL Class 1, which equates to 18 - 21mmHg of pressure. This is a light to moderate level of compression and may not be suited for more severe conditions. If you are unsure of which level of compression you require, we strongly suggest referring to a medical professional.

What Materials Are the Stockings Made From?

  • Polyamide (61%)
  • Elastane (39%)

Please note that this may differ slightly for different styles and compression classes. All Style Semitransparent Stockings do NOT feature any latex, making them suitable for latex-allergy sufferers.

I have been wearing these stockings ever since I was changed to them from 3 layer compression bandages. I don't have any lymph nodes in my left leg and need compression to help the blood flow properly. So much easier and more comfortable to wear. A big blessing for my healthier leg

These work extremely well in stopping your legs from swelling. Very comfortable to wear. A bit difficult to put on at first but learning how to do it better each day. I will never go back to three-layer bandages now I found these.
