BriteLeafs Opaque Thigh High Compression Stockings Firm Support 20-30 mmHg, Stay-Up Lace Top, Silicone Band, Profssional Grade Graduated Compression - Black, Medium, Closed Toe

I'm almost 9 months pregnant and these have been a God Send! I work on my feet all day and these keep my legs from feeling sore/tired. Since I gained all my weight in my belly I went with the size med (I wear size small maternity jeans from Motherhood). These provide firm, but comfortable compression throughout my whole leg. I'm 5'5" and they reach all the to my hip, so they are very high. I have had no trouble with them slipping down so I must have the right size. These are also very warm because they are so thick. Because they are compression tights they can be tough to get on. I don't roll them like I would regular tights, I just put my foot as far down as it goes then pull them up bit by bit. Works best for me. The only thing I didn't like about them was the toe. The seam faces down under your toes which would have given me blisters so I cut the foot off.

They fit perfectly and I was very surprised at how comfortable they were. I had vein treatments and had to wear them for 2 weeks and I still wear them after the 2 weeks. The stockings stay up easily and are a nice black color that I am able to wear with skirts. The compression is snug and makes your legs feel secure. Also, the price is very reasonable, since the Dr.s office wanted to charge me three times as much for similar stockings. I highly recommend them.

I'm picky, but these are great. I sometimes get rashes or irritation where the band is, but this happens with all compression thigh-highs I have found. These provide a comfortable yet solid level of compression, help stabilize my overly flexible knees, and have a roomy toebox--the dealbreaker for me in compressions stockings.Because they are black, most people can't tell that they are not just black tights in the winter, and I find them even cute.

Bought these compression stockings for my wife who is a nurse. She spends 12 hours a day on her feet and her legs would ache at night when she got home. I bought these stockings for her to help relieve some of the pain and she can feel a world of difference in her legs. They are still tired when she gets home, but they do not ache like the did before. Well worth the investment. She wants to get another set in a different color now.

The stockings arrived promptly. The stockings are very tight and hard to put on. It took fifteen minutes to put them on the first time and it was very tight around my right ankle. After my other pair from Truform came with an instruction card, the instructions helped a lot when I wore this pair again correctly and the ankle pressure lessened. The elastic band tends to fold in half. At the end of the first day with this pair, my thigh where the elastic held was very red. The second time I wore them it was not as red. Between this brand and Truform, I liked the Truform better because the band does not fold in half and Truform fit better.

I have the Jobst version of these in a small and they fit perfectly and are comfortable.This pair is suffocating. It hurts to wear them. The band at the top is so tight, I feel they were designed for a youth.

I bought these because they were required for a procedure I was having. I purchased them even though the reviews I read were poor for comfort. I strongly agree with others about the bands at the top of the stockings. They are incredibly uncomfortable and tore into my skin. At the tops is felt like they were cutting off my circulation. It was unbearable and I ended up wrapping ace bandages at the top of each one to protect my skin. They are very thick too. Even my doctor commented on their thickness. Good for winter and definitely can wear them as tights. Not something you could exercise in though. I looked forward to not having to wear these.

I'm a CNA and I work double shift all the time so I'm on my feet 18 hrs. a day. I bought the Opaque & sheer compression. They are extremely comfortable, much more so than the Jobst, and work just as well, at a fraction of the cost! They also hold up well after washing. I will be buying several more pairs of these. Thank you for an outstanding product at a reasonable price!
