Duomed Soft (BS CCL 2) Compression Stockings Below Knee Open Toe Beige Medium

Excellent product. First of all you need to remember that this is a medical device, not a comfort item. A number of advantages against others on the market: Graded compression from ankle (most important compression part) to calf; Soft and stretchy but exceptionally strong material - thicker and stronger than others; Open toe - much easier to put on than the closed-toe socks, and eliminates sizing issues (no foot length to consider, leaving you free to find the best size for your ankle and calf circumference); A donning aid (soft nylon "slipper") is included - you put it on your foot like a slipper, pull the sock on over it, - your toes will be sticking out through the open toe sock part - then grasp the slipper by its toe part and pull it off from under the sock. I however have found that the socks are easy enough to put on without using the slipper; The socks are long enough for long legs and have plenty stretch in them not to shrink back down, eliminating slipping down from the calf; The top band is extremely soft, stretchy and not at all constricting while managing to hold the sock up all day with zero slipping; They are machine-washable and suitable for low temperature tumble drying; The price is nearly £8 cheaper than other medical grade socks and the quality is far superior; The support is strong without being constricting - I do not feel I am wearing them once they are on. Important points to remember - Socks must fit well over the heel in order to be stretched properly up the leg; You must allow 2-finger widths below the crease of the knee to be left free of sock; Smooth the sock up and down on your leg with your hands once it's on, don't pull (a pair of clean DIY gloves is great for this). For a 173 cm tall person with slim calves I got a size S and it fits perfectly - observe the size guide and go smaller if you are in between sizes to ensure adequate compression. Do not dry them on the radiator, even a warm one - if you wash by hand, roll them in a towel then "stomp" on it to draw out excess moisture, then dry overnight on back of a chair and they will be ready to wear in the morning. Do not put them on over skin on which oils- or silicone-containing creams have just been used, as those will cling to fibres eventually ruining the stretch.

These are really good . Nice and soft. Quite tight, but with very good stretch. Reduces swelling but you can tell where they end as it gets very tight sometimes around my knees where there is still a lot of swelling. Great to wear all day, but after 10 hours or more, they get a little tight wrinkle around the ankle. (Possibly due to extra swelling at night)? Really good & much better than the ones you can get from the NHS. Much softer and not quite so hard to put on.

Have bought this item before. A bit pricey but very good !! Comfortable too 'for a pressure stockings!!!

I have had to wear class 11 for medical reasons for about 12 years. Medi Duomed soft arrived on time and well packaged. I tried wearing them yesterday. They felt soft and toe area was well seamed. Even with their handy gadget to enable me to put them on it was difficult.. My midday I knew something was wrong. My left ankle had swelled out sideways. When I tried to take them off it was extremely difficult. The material would not stretch enough to slip over my ankle even though I had sat with both up for an hour to try and reduce swelling. I purchased two pairs and will keep them not for the support under knee stockings but for gadget. I will now be searching the web again to try to get my usual brand in a medium size. Aslong as I live I will be required to wear support stockings. Today wearing my 3 month old normal brand, my ankle is held firmly in place. I am comfortable again.

Perfect stockings for flights - comfy and easy to pull on

Brought to wear as flight socks due to my ankles swelling. Easy to get on, comfortable and worked very well.

It says pack of 2 but only came in 1 pair. I thought it means 2 pairs! If it only comes in 1 pair, it’s not necessary to write pack of 2. So misleading! If you didn’t mention pack of 2, I would have bought the black colour! The nude colour one looks terrible. I wouldn’t want it to be seen by others.

Quality pair of compression socks Slightly expensive but worth it.

Nice product

consegnato 15 gg. dopo su sollecito, ma il prodotto non è uguale come % di elesticità allo stesso acquistato in negozio . in pratica sono meno comprimenti .

Appena decenti prezzo buono ma inefficace la compressione
