JOBST Relief 20-30 mmHg Compression Knee High Socks (Closed Toe, Black, XL Full Calf) - 1 Pack Review

Jobsta worn for many years. They are shorter, lighter, thinner and are made in Mexico, not Germany. Explains the low price.

I ordered these because the standard knee length compression stockings are too long causing me to roll the top down causing extra compression on my veins . This is the correct length but needs to be held in place with the JOBST It Stays product. When I wear them, they look more like regular stockings.

They're harder to put on than some other brands I've tried, but they get the job done. They definitely help. I have lymphedema and swollen ankles and feet. They help reduce swelling so I can relieve pain and stay on my feet. Sometimes they can cut into the knee (back of the knee) and at the end of the day it can hurt me. They work better than some of the other brands I've tried, but I have a few that ended up working. In general I recommend.

I am a waitress with edema problems. I bought these to keep my feet from "blowing out" like the Marshmallow Man from Stay Puft. Even after a 9 hour shift on my feet during pregnancy, my feet are not full of water. You want to make sure you aren't dehydrated or they swell up within an hour of removing them, but they help my legs avoid cramping and give me energy. Costs money. I will buy more.

I work in retail where I stand more than 8 hours a day. My toes, feet, ankles and calves started to swell. My vascular surgeon prescribed them to reduce swelling and prevent blood from draining and pooling in my legs. They work wonders! They are graduated compression, with the first strip starting at the balls of your feet and going around the top of the foot. I carry most of the weight on my feet so they are very big. These socks are designed for people with large calves.

I've finally found a compression hose that really fits. When I was picked up at the hospital they told me I need Medium, Short but at the end of the day my legs looked like balloons because I couldn't fully straighten them. They go just below my knee, don't pinch at the top, ride down or get too tight at the bottom of my leg. I'm 5'3" but seem to have very short legs. Very happy with these stockings and have already ordered another pair.

I was chosen compression stockings for varicose veins during pregnancy. It became too difficult to put on full length tights and my feet and calves were very swollen. My doctor gave me two pairs of tights and I found the Jobst tights to be of better quality. So I order knee-length tights. I measured as accurately as possible with a sewing tape. I was very happy with the fit of the tights and that they offered a small size. They're also not too tight around my lower legs, which helps reduce…

I was a little nervous about getting them, they only fit a 24 inch drumstick and one of mine is 23 and the other is 24 but I bought them and they fit perfectly! They even had some space! I needed them to reach my knee because I have varicose veins just below my knee on the back and I was worried they wouldn't reach that far but they do reach that point. They are comfortable and feel like socks, not tight or loose, they've been wearing all day. The only downside I can think of is that after a…

I paid a little more than I wanted BUT you get what you pay for! This is the perfect size, and when it comes to compression stockings, size matters! My doctor wrote a prescription for them and I went to the pharmacy/health care center and paid over $60 for my first pair. Decided to check out Revain to find the best deal on the second pair. Well I had to return two pairs before I found these. Don't buy cheaper stockings when you already need them. (Some people wear them to prevent circulatory…
