It has a texture exterior for enhanced stiffness and pressure application, yet is still easy to slide on and off over the silk liner.
How Does the Zipper Aid Donning?
Compression stockings can be difficult to fit over the leg due to their tight fitting nature. When the zipper is opened however, this stocking has more give, and it can be easier pulled over the leg even if there are dressings underneath. For your preference, their is a choice of zipper on the left or right side.
What Colour Is This Compression System?
The liner of this system is white in colour, while the stocking is beige. The stocking colour is ideal for those with lighter skin tones who want to match their leg more closely to their compression garment.

Which Level of Compression Do I Need?
The liner and stocking of this compression system combine to provide 40mmHg of gradient pressure to the leg. This is the recommended level of compression for treating both active and healed venous leg ulcers, making it an ideal, non-invasive solution for such conditions.
