Size

To find your perfect size, please measure the circumference of your:

• Forefoot (cA on the diagram below)

• Ankle (cB)
• Mid-lower calf (cB1)
• Mid-upper calf (cC)
• Below your knee (cD)

Mid-Lower Calf and Ankle Measurements

Mid-Upper Calf and Below Knee Measurements

Knee and Mid-Thigh Measurements

Length

Next, check if the length of the stockings will fit you properly by measuring from your upper thigh to the bottom of your foot (the measurement IG on the sizing chart above). This should measure between 70 - 80cm.

Who Can Benefit from the JOBST Classic Compression Stockings?

The JOBST Classic Compression Stockings were designed to offer versatile everyday wear for both men and women. With a plain, discreet appearance and a tough yet flexible composition, they can gently relieve lymphatic and venous conditions, and are perfect for wear on busy days.

What Conditions Are the JOBST Classic Compression Stockings Suitable For?

The JOBST Classic Compression Stockings have a Class 2 compression class, and can therefore be used to treat a range of mild to moderate venous and lymphatic conditions. These indications are listed below.

Indications

The JOBST Classic Compression Stockings are suitable for the following applications and conditions:

• Chronic leg pain or fatigue
• Varicose veins
• Swelling caused by mild oedema
• Alongside certain surgical procedures (e.g. sclerotherapy)
• To aid in the treatment of orthostatic or postural hypotension

Why Should You Choose the JOBST Classic Compression Stockings?

• Unisex compression stockings with a subtle, elegant appearance
• Made without seams for improved fit and comfort
• Suitable for both males and females
• 'Active Comfort' elastane yarn enhances flexibility
• Higher level of flexibility improves comfort and allows for easier donning
• Available in six different sizes and two lengths

How Do the JOBST Compression Stockings Work?

If the valves in your veins malfunction, blood and other fluids may not flow through your limbs correctly, potentially leading to pain and swelling. By applying pressure with increasing intensity from your ankle upwards, the JOBST Classic Stockings can mobilise the fluids in your leg to effortlessly alleviate your symptoms.

What Colour Are These Stockings?

These stockings are light beige colour which allows individuals with fair skin to achieve a nude, natural look. This range also includes a darker beige colour called 'pearl', which is suitable for those with slightly tanned skin.

What Is the Benefit of the Open Toe?

If you don't require compression on the entirety of your foot, you may find an open toe garment more comfortable. This is because they offer improved air flow to and from your feet, and won't squeeze your toes.

What Is the Purpose of the Dotted Silicone Grip?

The dotted silicone grip of this garment helps to keep the stockings in place during the day so they don't slide or bunch on your legs. While their textured band helps to hold stockings up more securely, some find them slightly irritating and prefer to use stocking adhesive instead.

How Do I Put the JOBST Classic Compression Stockings On?

Compression garments can be difficult to get on due to their snug-fitting nature, but the enhanced flexibility of the Classic Compression Stockings can make the process a little easier. It can also help to put your stockings on first thing in the morning when there is less swelling, and to turn the stockings inside out beforehand.

How Comfortable Are These Compression Stockings?

Unlike some compression garments, the JOBST Classic stockings provide a high level of breathability so you won't have to worry about perspiration or overheating. At the same time, their elastane 'active comfort' construction ensures your movements are never restricted for unparalleled comfort, making them the perfect pair of stockings for full on days.

Which Level of Compression Do I Need?

These stockings have a compression level of RAL Class 2, meaning they apply 23 - 32mmHg of gradient pressure to your legs. This is considered a moderate level of compression, suitable for addressing mild to moderate conditions such as varicose veins, mild oedema and severe fatigue.

Check with your doctor before purchasing these garments to ensure these stockings are right for you.
