Zeta WearZeta Sleeves XXL Wide Plus Size Calf Compression, Soothing Comfy Gradient Support, Prevents Swelling, Pain, Edema, DVT, Large Cuffs, Stretch to 24 Inches, Unisex, for Nurses, Seniors, Flights (Black)

I have terrible swelling in my legs and feet due to kidney issues. These stockings are the first compression hose to be right for me. They seem well made, thick, and very comfy. The support is medium strength, not too tight. They were easy for me to get on, and I did not feel like my fingers would tear them like my last pair, which cost three times more. I feel my legs have reduced in size wearing them, and they seem to get more comfortable each day. They were shipped in one day, and very reasonably priced. Very pleased with my purchase.

I can't take knee bandages, with a lose body floating about in my knee and some hamstring injury any pressure on the back of it is just too much. BUT, these sleeves not only fit firmly on my rather sturdy calves, they are also long enough (32"inside leg, didn't measure my calf length) and don't leave any cut-off marks after wearing them all day. I could walk with my knee feeling more stable just with more support from below, almost comfortably, and definitely not in pain. I am not keen on compression in general, and I am feeling a bit of shooting pains now after having taken them off, almost like vein pain, so would only wear them when out walking, but overall I'm thrilled that they even fitted and help so much. The quality is lovely and they don't look depressing (see what I did there?)

I've been disappointed with various other compression sleeves - I have large calves, and it's very hard to find a decent pair of sleeves that actually fit the size they say they do. These are no different.If the model in the images is wearing a compression sleeve, it isn't this one. There is no way this item will stretch as wide as it does in the images. These are no different too any of the other brands I've tried - just another rebranding of the same product that all the other 3rd party sellers seem to be offering, and make no attempt to properly cater for the larger sized people.Too much hassle to return these - I'll just take them for fabric recycling.

I bought the XXL size for my 19 inch calf. I suffer with oedema. The material was good and didn't make my legs hot. They are comfortable to wear and the top isn't tight so doesn't embed itself into your skin which is a worry with some types I've bought. They certainly work for me. Would certainly recommend these if you are hesitating like I was.

I bought these as a stop gap. I've been measured for medical stockings and was told that it would take a week to get them, but that was over a month ago. My lymphoedema is from the knee down. I sit all day for work, so it doesn't take long for the fluid to pool and then my legs get sore and painful. I've still got good shape to my legs, puffy as they are, so my condition isn't severe. Once I put these stocking on, I felt instant relief. They control the swelling and my legs feel supported and I no longer feel the associated pain that the swelling brings. If your condition isn't severe, you've still got good shape to your legs - these stockings will work for you. I can't speak to how they compare to the medical stockings as I've not received mine yet - but for now - these are providing me with much needed relief and support.
