Description

The Sigvaris Opaque 860 Series Thigh-High Compression Stockings combine therapeutic effectiveness with exceptional comfort and style. Designed to provide 20-30 mmHg of graduated compression, these thigh-high stockings are ideal for individuals seeking moderate compression to manage venous conditions or to improve leg health during daily activities, long periods of standing, or travel. The 860 Series features a high-quality, opaque fabric that offers a smooth, elegant appearance, making these stockings suitable for professional, casual, or medical use.

Key Features:

  1. Moderate Compression Level (20-30 mmHg):
    • Offers 20-30 mmHg of graduated compression, which is effective in managing mild to moderate symptoms of varicose veins, chronic venous insufficiency, leg swelling, and in post-surgical or post-sclerotherapy care.
  2. Premium Opaque Fabric:
    • Made from a blend of 69% Nylon and 31% Spandex, the fabric is soft, durable, and breathable, ensuring all-day comfort. The opaque material offers a smooth, non-sheer look that effectively conceals veins, blemishes, or other skin imperfections.
  3. Moisture-Wicking and Breathable:
    • The advanced moisture-wicking properties of the fabric help keep the legs dry and cool throughout the day. The breathable design allows air to circulate, making the stockings comfortable for long-term wear.
  4. Comfortable Silicone Grip Top Band:
    • Features a silicone grip top band that prevents the stockings from slipping or rolling down. The band is designed to be gentle on the skin, providing secure all-day wear without pinching or binding.
  5. Reinforced Heel and Toe for Durability:
    • The reinforced heel and toe design enhances durability in high-wear areas, ensuring the stockings last longer even with daily use. This also provides additional comfort, especially for individuals on their feet for extended periods.
  6. All-Day Comfort and Easy Wear:
    • The stretchable, form-fitting material ensures a snug yet comfortable fit that moves with you, providing therapeutic compression without sacrificing mobility. The flat seams reduce irritation and discomfort.
  7. Indications for Use:
    • Ideal for individuals experiencing mild to moderate leg swelling, varicose veins, venous insufficiency, or those looking for preventive care during travel or prolonged sitting or standing.

Benefits:

  • Promotes Better Circulation: Enhances blood flow from the legs back to the heart, reducing leg fatigue, swelling, and the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
  • Supports Venous Health: Effective for managing symptoms of venous disorders and providing support during recovery from surgeries or treatments.
  • Elegant and Discreet: The opaque finish allows for a discreet, stylish look, making them suitable for any setting, whether it’s work, travel, or special occasions.

Size Measurements

  • Ankle Measurement:
    • Measure the circumference of the narrowest part of the ankle, just above the ankle bone.
    • This measurement is critical for ensuring effective compression and proper fit. Make sure the tape measure is snug but not too tight.
  • Calf Measurement:
    • Measure the circumference of the widest part of the calf.
    • Keep the tape measure parallel to the floor, ensuring it is snug against the skin without compressing the calf too tightly.
  • Thigh Measurement:
    • Measure the circumference of the fullest part of the thigh, approximately 1 inch below the groin area.
    • Ensure the tape measure is parallel to the floor and snug, but not constricting, to avoid discomfort.
  • Leg Length Measurement: Measure the length from the floor to the bend of the knee while standing up straight.

Care Instructions

  • Daily Washing:
    • Wash the compression stockings daily to remove oils, sweat, and dirt that can break down the fabric over time and affect the compression level.
    • Daily washing also helps restore the elasticity of the stockings, ensuring they continue to provide proper compression.
  • Hand Wash or Machine Wash (Gentle Cycle):
    • Hand Wash: Use lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Gently agitate the stockings in the water, then rinse thoroughly to remove all soap.
    • Machine Wash: Place the stockings in a mesh laundry bag to protect them from damage. Use a gentle cycle with lukewarm water and a mild detergent.
  • Use Mild Detergents:
    • Choose a mild detergent that is free from bleach, fabric softeners, or additives, as these can damage the fibers and reduce the effectiveness of the compression.
  • Avoid Bleach and Fabric Softeners:
    • Do Not Use Bleach: Bleach can weaken the fibers and affect the elasticity and compression level of the stockings.
    • Avoid Fabric Softeners: Fabric softeners can leave a residue that diminishes the elasticity and moisture-wicking properties of the stockings.
  • Air Dry Only:
    • After washing, gently squeeze out excess water without wringing or twisting the stockings.
    • Lay the stockings flat or hang them to air dry away from direct sunlight, heat sources, or tumble dryers, as excessive heat can damage the elastic fibers.
  • Avoid Ironing:
    • Do not iron compression stockings, as the heat can destroy the elasticity and fabric integrity.
  • Rotate Stockings:
    • Consider having at least two pairs of compression stockings to rotate daily. This allows one pair to rest and recover its elasticity while the other is worn.
  • Inspect Regularly for Wear and Tear:
    • Regularly check your stockings for signs of wear and tear, such as thinning fabric, holes, or loss of elasticity. If the stockings are damaged, they may not provide the necessary compression and should be replaced.
