T.E.D. Thigh Length Anti-Embolism Stockings

I bought these after knee replacement surgery to replace a pair the hospital gave me that were hopelessly too small. These are sized perfectly for a man 6'4" with a large (12-14) shoe size. They are obviously better built than those the hospital provided to me, and I especially liked the extra strong front panel and built-in rubber backs that keep them from slipping down on the leg. They have a reinforced heel which makes it easy to visually determine where the heel is supposed to be. What I most liked is that they came with instructions about how to correctly put the stockings on. I've worn support stockings (durable ones from Ames-Walker) for 49 years and have never heard of or personally discovered the best way to put support hosiery on, especially when the leg is damp, like after a shower. Anyway, these come with instructions how to best put them on, a technique I shall hereafter apply to all my permanent support hosiery.That said, these are not intended to last a long time, maybe a month or so with five or six washings. They're a post-surgical stocking that probably isn't designed for use beyond the average recouperative period. The low price seems to reflect that. After about five washings, the fabric begins to pill and you start to get holes and runs in spite of the proper technique for handling them mentioned above. The extra long size is good for tall people and they last as long as you'd expect them to after surgery. For the long run, you'd need better constructed ones in black or brown to go with street wear, and you'd expect to pay double what these cost for hosiery that is expected to last through many wears and washings.

I had knee replacement on my left knee 12/1/21. The tighs I used then did not stay up and were very uncomfortable. Then I had my right knee replaced on 5/9/22. I was given these thigh and they were wonderful. They stayed up on my legs, they did not pinch or rolled down. I loved them. Great fit, very user friendly and very comfortable to wear. Both times I have had to wear them 6 weeks. This time the experience has been great! I have another 3 weeks to wear them. I wish I would have had this brand for the first surgery. I would recommend these to everyone I know!

I had knee surgery and was told to wear embolism hose for six weeks. My legs are long and these are the only ones I have found that fit me that are long enough for my thighs. They fit great, they stay up, they are long enough which gives me a great fit.I’m 5’8 with long legs, I tried other hose and they were too short. If you need these embolism hose after surgery and you have longer legs, I highly recommend this brand.

The stockings the hospital sent me home with were too short and kept rolling down, so I measured my legs and found these. I’m 5’8” and have chunky thick legs, these fit all the way to the top. I give 4 stars because the seam tore where the stocking meets the grippy bit at the top and they’ve started to snag. They also seem to have bands of compression, so it’s more compression around my knee and a little less mid thigh. I’m not sure if that’s intentional or a flaw. They are comfortable and did the job after my knee replacement surgery.

Got these for my mom who had knee surgery and needed these for post op, very good quality and comfortable.

These fit better than other manufacturers products.

These were too long for my elderly mother who is 4’11”. Probably better for someone taller.

Product meats and exceeds expectations great price too as well.
