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.

Compression pantyhose are a specialized hosiery designed to help prevent the occurrence of, and guard against further progression of, venous disorders such as edema, phlebitis and thrombosis. Compression stockings are elastic compression garments worn around the leg, compressing the limb.

Opaque: The term “opaque stockings” is used to describe hosiery that tends to be non-translucentOpaque stockings are usually about 50 deniers or higher in weight, thus achieving its thick appearance. Opaque stockings can be made from a variety of material, 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. 

Microfiber:  This complex fiber composed of polyester and polyamide has a very soft touch and adds an extraordinary comfort to the final product. Our microfiber flight stockings are a fine example of these characteristics.

Fiber Content: 85% Nylon / 15% Spandex

To help muscles recover after sports, compressions socks and stockings are usually for 15-20 mmhg. Low compression levels such as 15-20 mmHg is an excellent choice for daily wear of compression stockings to help with mild swelling and leg fatigue from long periods of travel, sitting or standing. Particularly if you have a sedentary job, wearing compression garments of 15-20 mmHg dramatically helps minimize leg swelling and subsequent discomfort versus not wearing them. The lowest level of compression is helpful for mild to moderate swelling and pain, and may also help prevent varicose veins (especially during pregnancy). Light compression helps prevent swelling, leg pain and deep vein thrombosis and is a popular choice for frequent flyers.
