Compression knee stockings are made of micro fiber and Lycra. They are knitted by a LONATI circular knitting machine, ensuring high quality, durability and utility.

Micro fiber is a polyamide fiber which consists of a great amount of thinner fibers. Stockings with micro fiber are delicate, soft, velvety, warmer and much stronger than those made with more common materials. Additionally, they do not rub at heels to make them sore.

Lycra was invented and is produced only by Du-Pont. Stockings with Lycra perfectly fit the leg, do not stretch out and are prevented from laddering. Additionally, they are soft and elastic, guarantee freedom of movement, have massaging effects and have a subtle shimmer.

Your doctor may prescribe compression socks to:

• boost circulation in your legs
• support veins
• prevent blood from pooling in your leg veins
• diminish leg swelling
• reduce orthostatic hypotension, which causes lightheadedness or unsteadiness when you stand
• help prevent venous ulcers
• prevent development of deep vein
• thrombosis in your legs
• help lessen the pain caused by varicose veins
• reverse venous hypertension
• improve lymphatic drainage
