"I have tried three different brands of compression socks recently because JOBST products weren’t offered in my town. I do like to support local businesses. Anyway, I went online and bought JOBST and I’m very happy with the fit and comfort."
Comfortable Fit
"I went down from 30-40 compression to 20-30 compression and these are a perfect fit. They are comfortable and less binding. It feels like I'm wearing nothing at all on my legs."
I decided to order this
"I decided to order this 20-30 mmHg compression because previously I was wearing 30-40 mmHg compression and it was uncomfortable, especially during the summer. I am glad I made the switch because they feel comfortable and they do not bother me during the hot season. I have one leg that swells and, to my surprise, it was as good for the swelling as the higher compression. One important thing, my leg does not feel heavy. The look is good but that is secondary compared to comfort. The band tends to curl a little but I think it is because I should have ordered a petit length. I am borderline in length so it is hard to decide between petit and standard."
Obviously Good Support
"The Jobst SoftFit 20-30 mmHg Compression Knee Highs are comfortable and do their job well. I had hoped I could discreetly wear these in the summer with capri pants and sandals...THAT won't be happening! :'D My next purchase will be SHEER compression, saved for special occasions."
These are great, except . . .
"I was so glad Jobst started offering open toes. I love their stockings - they don't pill like other brands, the colors are soft, they seem lighter weight but still very durable. However, these open-toe knee-highs about half the days I wear them, end up with the toe opening around my ankles. This stricture is not at all helpful to my circulation!"
SoftFit are great.
"I use Softfit because other compression knee highs (including others from Jobst) often slide down my leg as time goes on. Not with Jobst SoftFit; they stay in place all day."
Q&A
- I require a "short" sick from knee to toes! Do you carry this???
- The Jobst Opaque Women's 20-30 mmHg OPEN TOE Knee High comes in a petite but not the soft fit open toe. https://www.foryourlegs.com/products/jobst-opaque-womens-20-30-mmhg-open-toe-knee-high Thank you
