Which Size Is Right for Me?

To ensure you find the right size stockings for you, there a few steps you need to perform first. These are as follows:

1. Measure your upper thigh circumference
2. Measure your calf circumference at its greatest point
3. Measure your leg length (distance from buttocks fold to heel)

If your upper thigh circumference measures at 91.4cm or more, we suggest choosing knee length compression stockings.

Once you have your measurements, you can match them to the tables below.

How Do the TED Anti-Embolism Stockings Work?

The TED stockings are crafted to prevent the development of blood clots in the leg following surgery or during periods of immobility. This happens through compression, where these stockings are positioned over the leg and upper thigh to help increase and maintain blood flow through increased pressure.

These particular stockings are designed with something called 'graduated pressure', which especially effective for treating venous conditions.
