Overview

About Absolute Support

Absolute Support provides high quality, medical grade compression at value pricing. Made in the USA, all Absolute Support socks are designed with your health and comfort in mind. Identical to high end brands, we take 4-6 compression measurements at precise intervals between the ankle and end of garment. Multiple measurements guarantee our garments are comfortable and deliver an accurate distribution of the pressure gradient.

Apparel Attire

Compression knee high socks are specifically made to reduce swelling and promote blood circulation between your heart and your legs. By applying pressure to your calves, these socks provide comfortability and health benefits in a versatile and customizable way. Stockings that rise to just below the knee help limit lower leg swelling due to fluid buildup. They may also help prevent venous ulcers and can prevent the development of blood clots in the leg — especially if used after surgery or when you may be inactive for a while.

Material

Opaque: The term “opaque stockings” is used to describe hosiery that tends to be non-translucent Opaque stockings are usually about 50 deniers or higher in weight, thus achieving its thick appearance. Opaque stockings can be made from a variety of materials, including nylon. Opaque stockings combine outstanding functionality with an especially soft and pleasant feel. Their refined opacity discreetly hides blemishes while effective moisture management and ease of donning support everyday comfort. As you might imagine, a sheer is going to be a bit more breathable than an opaque stocking. An opaque is wonderful for cooler months when you want the extra warmth. An opaque stocking will effectively hide very pronounced varicosities or unwanted sunspots, while the sheer will cover your legs, but still mildly expose your skin. 

Fiber Content: 65% Nylon, 35% Spandex

Available in Plus Size

At Discount Surgical Stockings, we stand behind size-inclusivity for all categories and we proudly offer a variety of options for every style, shape, and budget. Our plus-size compression garments are designed to provide the medical compression support for extra wide sizes. These strong, surgical weight compression socks give you the graduated compression doctors recommend, especially for lymphedema patients.

Compression: 20-30 mmhg (Firm Support)

If wearing a lower compression does not seem to be minimizing the swelling in your legs enough, higher-grade (or medical grade) compression may be more effective. Usually, people who suffer from swelling can benefit from 20-30 mmHg socks. These can help them alleviate symptoms of moderate to severe edema and varicose veins. Compression stockings 20-30 mmHg may also help after surgery on the advice of a doctor and reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) from sitting for too long. They are specially formulated to relieve pain in the legs and calves, venous ulcers, edema, and other diseases of the lower extremities. The 20-30 mmHg compression stockings from Discount Surgical Stockings have medical-grade standards and beautiful designs that are designed to fit any aesthetic. These socks can help reduce swelling, relieve leg pain, and prevent venous ulcers. These socks are recommended for people with mild to moderate conditions. The range of 20-30 mmHg compression socks features many styles that can match any wardrobe or personal style.

    Excellent sheer support socks 0 people found this helpful
    Overall

    Fit

    Based on the lack of swelling at the end of the day. These are true 20-30mm compression socks. I prefer the sheer thin material tear round over the thicker socks for everyday non-athletic activities, particularly in warmer weather.

    Comfort and support for lymphedema
    They stay put, do not slip or roll.
    The thin material is endurable and keeps feet and legs cool, sweat free.

    Overall

    These beige stockings look better on my very pale skin and my knees don’t swell as much at the end of the day. I do, sometimes, have a bit of toe pain with the toe seam.

    Overall

    I gave these stockings 4 Stars because they're made of great material and is exactly what I needed for support but they were a bit tight even though I measure my legs accurately. I bought a 3 pack of Tan and a 3 pack of Black. I would've loved to exchange them for the next size but I believe they are not returnable. I recommending to order 1 size larger. Otherwise, I like these stockings.

    Order 1 size up. The toe area also is a close fit.

    Fit

    Overall

    For everyday wear with running shoes, I need some cushioning. The fit, support and material is closed-toes version of this A501 is so great, I bought three pair of the open-toe version to wear with cushioned running socks. These are identical in fit, support and comfort as the closed-toe version. I have very sensitive feet. The bottom band is so smooth and flat - just like the top band - I don't even feel it under my foot. The 'foot' of the sock stays in place, the smooth top band doesn't roll. and pants don't cling the material of either version. I love these socks!
    Was this review helpful?

    So smooth, great fit for me, great support at the lower leg where I need it most, ALL-day comfort, and the top band does not roll. They're cooler in summer than the thicker knee-highs, obviously.

    They're kind of pricey considering I have to buy good running ankle socks to go with them. I've never worn the sheerer styles before, only the thicker MOJO athletic socks. Fingers crossed as to durability, because these feel so good on my legs.

    Overall

    I've been buying the Mojo athletic support socks for years. I needed a sheerer material for an outing, and tried these. The fit is is superb for me. The top band is so wide, soft and comfortable I was afraid they'd slide down while wearing them. I wore them for over eight hours, walking, driving, etc and they didn't budge. The compression is perfect, exactly what I need. I wish I could get this fit in the Absolute Support athletic socks. I just ordered three more pairs of these A501s. Oh, and these are cooler in summer weather, too.

    Great fit, perfect level of compression, very smooth and comfortable, top band doesn't roll or slide down. Just perfect for me.

    I can't think of any, when you need a sheerer sock. I need cushioning under my feet, which of course a sheer sock doesn't provide. So I just ordered 3 pair of the open-toe version, to wear under regular socks in my running shoes.
