activa Class 2 Below Knee Support Stockings Open Toe

Activa support socks are by far the best, and I’ve tried quite a few over the years! Activa ones are cool and comfortable and very soft. They fit well and wash really well, I always wash by hand. The toeless ones are great for the summer and work well for me. I have intermittent swelling of my right leg due to thrombosis years ago. These support socks really help with swelling and pain.

This was purchased for my elderly mother. A good tight fit but comfortable. A reasonable price

Good quality product I am happy with purchase I use the compression stocking for swollen leg

Unfortunately I've recently had DVT so am now a fully fledged member of the compression sock/tight gang! I have had one pair from the same brand via the pharmacy which we open toe and sheer in colour...not very masculine at all; so I've done some research and found that I can buy these and they're cheaper on amazon than their own website...bargain.They're better than the open toe version and look a lot better imo. One thing is that I don't find them to be thick enough and could be prone to laddering (one has already developed in my other pair!). They do work and help reduce the swelling and pain in my leg - 5 stars for that!

Very good quality

I was specting something better

I purchased these as my calfs muscles ache at the end of the day if i have been standing for a period of time. I am a district nurse so i know all about compression, therefore i have conducted a doppler on myself before purchasing to check they are safe for me and i have adequate circulation. These help massively with the aches i had.For anyone that is having problems with their legs, please consult your gp or nurse before buying.I did order open toe hosiery, but i received closed toe, however i do not mind.

These are the most comfortable and effective support stockings I have found. I'm 5'9" tall with size 8 feet and bought the extra large size. Very pleased with them, they wash well and dry overnight.*Update* - once swelling under control, I downsized to Large, and now find this the most comfortable size.I have tried a few different makes before and none of the others stayed in place, I was constantly trying to pull them back up. If you have ever experienced the painful strangulation that occurs when compression stockings slide down and gather round your ankle, you'll understand the relief in finding a pair that do actually stay in place and compress effectively. I can wear the Activa ones all day without needing to adjust them.The top cuff is really strong (the reason that these do stay up) and I have found that if there is excess material under the knee the cuff can roll down, which can be uncomfortable - so I am careful not to pull them too high up so that the cuff sits nice and flat. As class 2, the compression is quite strong and they are tight to get over your heel, but this is to be expected and once on they are really effective. I have really happy ankles.
