CzSalus womens Opaque

I received these compression stockings today. I am recently diagnosed with lipedema and Lipoedema. I tried another popular brand that my PT had recommended and they just did not fit my body well. I asked her for another brand to try and she recommended this brand. I am so glad she did. These stockings are so well-constructed. They feel like I am being held in well, unlike the other brand. The material is of a different feeling. Not too thick, but not so thin that you fear your fingers will go through it when you are yanking your stockings up and down when going to the restroom. I am sending the other brand back and buying another pair of these. I am very satisfied with CzSalus and highly recommend them.

I struggle with sizing due to wide hips and thighs down to a skinny calf. These leggings are of great medical compression material and give the right amount. Been suffering from pain in back of thighs when sitting… and looked for shorts and thigh sleeves that didn’t fit due to my size. I’m 5’2” and on the thick side. These have the stretch I needed.It was hard to put back on after using the bathroom and we’re in the middle of a heat advisory. So indoors with ac has been the exposure so far. I felt almost no pain while sitting down wearing these leggings. Side note: I elevate my feet due to height while I was having pain and with leggings on.. it’s a must.

These are the real deal my friends. The first few time I used them I had to literally lay on the floor to get them on and it took a solid 10 mins but now I’ve gotten them loosened just enough that they go on without me sounding like I’m losing a fight with an angry street cat.As far as compression goes, they do what we need them to!

I got the large because my other compression is large or medium. When I opened the package it was tiny but I thought ok it will stretch. And it did to a point. There was a gap in the crotch area (always wore underwear underneath). And the area for the feet were so small my feet would swell were it wasn’t covered. I don’t wear these at all anymore.

These came highly recommended by other Lippy Sisters. I am 5'1, 270 lbs. I'm not really on their chart, but others who use them said they are like me bodywise and they fit them. Well, they look like they're for little kids, then as you pull, and pull, and pull, they make their way up your legs, thighs, hips and tummy. They are sooooo hard to get up and smooth out. Because I have short legs, there is too much material so they choke my upper thighs, too much folded fabric. If you just sit without standing and moving, they're ok, but then as you walk, they start to travel down to your ankles. They gather around your knees and thighs and start to cut into your legs. Had I been a few inches taller, they would have been perfect. I'm going to keep them, because I have no other option size wise. I'm also hoping that as I work towards reducing the inflammation and swelling, they will fit a little better. I do appreciate that if I wanted to return them, they would accept it without a restocking fee like the Bioflect that is sold here on Amazon.

They looked and felt like good quality stockings that would have done the trick if I could have gotten them over my knees and up over my thighs to my hips, and then over my hips to my waist. It wasn't the stockings fault. I just didn't want to try that hard on the product, on the first try. If they weren't going to fit then, they just weren't going to fit.I'll try again another day perhaps.

Update- after looking at the label, I found that I received both the wrong style and the wrong size of this. They did not come in any kind of special packaging only a clear bag so perhaps they were returned or something else that the company messed up. Will be working with Amazon to get a refund or replacementI ordered three styles from the same brand to compare with bioflect and other name brandsPros- They arrived quicklysizing is pretty accurate, size down if in doubtFabric is comfortable and breathableDo not look like compression, Smooth like leggings- my favorite featureCons-Fit is weird. it’s meant for someone who has zero butt whatsoever, and's it’s kind of uncomfortable and one pair looks like it might rip at the crotch seam already.I do not believe they are really 20 to 30 mmhg, Compression seems to be very minimal.No compression or shaping in the stomach and they rolled down a bit.The massaging element also is nothing compared to bioflect. You feel a little bit at first, but Does not really do anything over the day. Doesn’t even leave any marks when you take them off. A side-by-side comparison shows that it’s a similar textured product, however, bioflect is more pronounced.Overall, a quality fabric and some people might like it, but it’s not for me add I regret spending so much money on this brand instead lol of sticking with a known product.

These came highly recommended by Lippy sister but I find them to be disappointing. At first they are great but with daily wear they don’t hold up.First pair came with a hole so I send them back. 2nd pair I have been wearing 5/7 days a week since December 2021. They have stretched out quiet a bit and now are bunching up behind my knees. They have also ended up with a hole along the inner thigh seam. I hand wash them in cold water and line dry. Still wearing them as I can’t afford new ones right now but will not reorder these. Looking for better quality in next ones.
