TruformTruform 30-40 mmHg Compression Stockings for Men and Women, Knee High Length, Closed Toe, Beige, Large

They are great and they never disappoint. They are tight and last a relatively long time for the price. I usually have about 3-5 pair I rotate through and end up replacing a single pair about every 3 months but I'm on my feet ALL DAY and cant have them wearing out on me. I could probably use them for longer but decide not too For the price you cant beat them. They do what they say they do.

"Compression" is an UNDERSTATEMENT! I have had "rogue" swelling in my right ankle and foot for 10 years now due to an old softball-related knee injury and no matter which compression hose I have ever purchased for it, either it took DAYS UPON DAYS to help, or it did not help at all. At the advice of my Physician - WITH PROPER MEASUREMENT - she told me to TRY 30-40 mmHg stockings to see if they would help. These stockings, managed to dissipate the swelling within 10 hours where for the first time in said 10 years, both of my feet and ankles looked the same! Please remember, this mcg is at the HIGH end of compression therapy (only 40-50 mmHg and 50+ mmHg being higher) and SHOULD ONLY BE PURCHASED WITH THE RECOMMENDATION/CONSULTATION OF YOU PHYSICIAN AND WITH PROPER MEASUREMENT! You can harm yourself once you go above 25 mmHg, ESPECIALLY if you suffer from advanced peripheral obstructive arterial disease, heart failure, septic phlebitis, oozing dermatitis and advanced peripheral neuropathy. When it comes to the sizing - you MUST BE MEASURED CORRECTLY FOR THIS LEVEL OF COMPRESSION! Should I have done my own measurement or went by what I thought to be correct, I would have purchased a larger size, when, in actuality, I was only an X-Large. Incorrectly fitting compression stockings can cause a new set of health issues. Now, I am 42 years old and LUCKILY, I do not have any issues with strength in my upper body . . .because STRENGTH IS NEEDED to put these on! It takes me Five(5) minutes to get ONE on correctly (I only need for my right ankle/foot) and I cannot see how ANYONE who was older than say 50 or someone that has compromised strength in hands/arms would EVER be able to get these on without the aid of a device. Truth be told though, if they are easy to get on, then you have the wrong size (again, CORRECT MEASUREMENT IS VITAL!). If you are in need of this mmHg grade of stocking, then this is the right brand for you! The quality is awesome and I foresee them lasting a VERY LONG TIME (with proper laundry care!) . . . and the price beats any medical supply house by A LOT! If your physician has recommended/advised this grade, and you have been correctly measured, you cannot go wrong with this purchase.

Let me begin by saying I am overweight and have back issues which make it difficult to put socks on or take them off. I needed to use a butler device to get these on; there is no device to help get them off. I followed the sizing chart and they seemed to do me rather well... until one ripped while I was pulling it up. But, still, I managed to get them on and wore them. The tear should not have happened. The compression seemed okay. What did happen and was much worse is the top band of the sock felt like is was cutting into my flesh. I think it rolled and the darn thing hurt. I think if the top band was made differently, wider band with less compression up there so it didn't cut into my flesh, it would be better. So, this thing is "cutting" into my flesh and I try and take them off. Between my weight and back issues, I could only bring the sock part way down my calf. So this compression sock was now doubled over on itself and really tight. The band was now lower on my calf and cutting into me even worse. (No, it did not cut my flesh, but certainly felt like it might, it hurt that much. Not good. I managed to get home and had to cut the damn things off because they were so difficult to remove. So, do they compress? Yes. But, if you have difficulty reaching down to the very end of your foot so you can put them on and take them off like a woman does with her nylons, you may face the struggle I did trying to get them off. No fun and you may want to reconsider. Certainly not for me. Amazon sells a graduated compression vital sock that I found to be a good balance of compression and ease of dressing or removal.

These are good quality stockings and seem to help with circulation. My only question is about the ribbing in the weave which I believe has caused calluses on my feet(it's still a theory). The open-toe version aren't a solution for me because they cut off circulation just behind the toes. So, if you try these just be aware of the callus issue. These are not just your garden variety calluses you get on your hand from using a hammer. They could require professional intervention. If the socks were not of such high quality, durable(I do wash mine by hand; they have lasted for YEARS) and effective I might experiment with others. I'm in my late seventies so a younger person may not have the callus issue. One last thing, if you're new to pressure socks, the 15-20 mmHg type can be a bear(probably impossible) to get on if you don't learn the technique. There are YouTube videos that will help. Of course, there is the Stocking Donner which Truform offers, but I'm still strong enough to do without that.

La punta es muy suave se agradece muy cómodo .. pero no es amigable con las uñas … se rompió en la primera postura

These were incredibly hard to get on when I ordered my size + 1 size up according to the chart. I got them on with some fighting so a second size up might have worked. BUT then these socks were nonsensically long. The heel part came up past my ankle, and the socks were so tall that they came up to my thigh and then rolled down in a very uncomfortable way, or I would have to bunch them down which just doesn't work for compression wear. I'm 5'5" and wear size 10.5 shoes lol. I ordered the largest size 3x despite my calf measurement being in the 2x range.

Works great and helps with my swelling in my legs.
