Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the difference between open toe and closed toe compression socks?
  Open toe compression socks do not cover the toes – the fabric ends at the ball of the foot. Closed toe compression socks cover the toes.
• Why is compression good for feet?
  The pressure these stockings put on your legs helps your blood vessels work better. The arteries that take oxygen-rich blood to your muscles can relax, so blood flows freely. The veins get a boost pushing blood back to your heart. Compression socks can keep your legs from getting tired and achy.
• How many hours can I wear compression socks?
  Wear your compression stockings during the day and take them off before going to bed. Put them on again first thing in the morning. You should be given at least 2 socks or 2 pairs if you’re wearing them on both legs. This means you can wear 1 stocking (or pair) while the other is being washed and dried.
• How should compression socks fit?
  Fit the top of the sock where you would like, typically right below the crease of your knee. If they fit a bit long, simply slide your thumbs inside the cuff and walk the material down to a comfortable height and smooth out any wrinkles.
• How do I know what size compression socks I need?
  Whenever you are choosing between compression sock sizes, just measure the circumference of your calf and the circumference of your ankle. But if your measurement falls in between sizes, try smaller sizes that are closer to your measurements; don’t opt-in for sizes higher than you.
