The first thing you will notice when you open the package is the bright and colorful pixel design. The soft weave fabric is a blend of 80% nylon and 20% spandex and the stockings have a graduated compression and each sock can be worn on either foot... no L and R to get mixed up!
The first thing I loved about them is that they were easy to put on... so many times I have ordered compression stockings in what I think should be an ample size, only to really struggle with getting them on and then off, too. Not these. They go on with relative ease... are comfortable for even a full day's wear and then roll off quite nicely. They are snug, but not overly so.
I have worn these stockings several times... while on my feet all day doing errands and shopping, and I have worn them while I run and then for a couple of hours afterward to help with recovery. I will likely wear them on my travel day this weekend where I will be on a 4.5 hour flight and then a 1.75 hour flight shortly after. I have that much confidence in them.
It is recommended that you hand wash these stockings and hang them to dry. I normally hand wash my workout gear anyway so this was not a hardship for me. But the label does say that they can be machine-washed in cold water with a mild soap or detergent. You choose.
These Stitch and Flow compression stockings are now available on Amazon and I am pretty sure you will be happily surprised with the price, too.
What do you think? Do you wear compression stockings?
