Mixed feeling
"Don’t stay up very good"
The Mediven Sheer & Soft are the sheerest medical compression stockings on the market. In addition to being the sheerest, independent studies found them softer and more durable. Unlike many sheer stockings, these stockings do not utilize silicone on their yarns permitting added breathability and improved moisture regulation making them cooler and dryer than the leading competition.

"Don’t stay up very good"
"I was so excited as the fabric was sheer and I thought these would be great for humid hot weather. It took 20 minutes to get them on. Then once I stood up, they started rolling down to my knees. Once thigh highs rolls, they won't sit correctly until they are washed and dried. So 30 minutes of my life wasted and I never got to feel them in hot weather. This is what happens when I try a new brand."
"The color was much darker than the description. I'm going to keep them because it's too much trouble to return them."
"I’ve used these Sheer and Soft stockings for 20 years. They work for me."
"I love the Mediven support hose! They are very comfortable to wear and I would highly recommend them to anyone."
"I found I’m allergic to latex but these did not make the top of my legs break out in hives and blisters. I’m tall, 5’11”, and these fit well and weren’t pulled so tight to be slipping down at all during the day. Legs felt good all day."
"I like them very much"
"They are by far the best on the market, leaps and bounds above the rest."
"Needs more room in the toes."
"I need compression for painful CVI. These are more comfortable, as the banded silicone in the top doesn't cause skin breakdown like the beaded silicone did. The top band is thin enough to attach a garter clasp to help hold them up, which is not the case with the beaded top compression stockings."
