Product Description & Benefits: The Truform Men's Support Socks (15-25 mmHg) are recommended for conditions such as tired, achy legs, leg/ankle pain and discomfort, mild ankle swelling (edema), and for people who are standing and sitting for long hours. These support stockings are also recommended for preventing and treating venous symptoms and for reducing the progression towards varicose veins. These support socks feature knitted-in-heel and toe pockets for wearing comfort. The socks are made of 87% nylon and 13% lycra spandex.

These graduated support socks help promote better blood flow and circulation and relieve tired, aching legs due to reduced circulation and long periods of standing and sitting. In addition to reducing leg pain and discomfort, this graduated support stocking garment also helps reduce mild ankle swelling (edema) by lessening the build-up of fluids. The support stockings support and compress veins, which helps get your blood moving up the legs and back to the heart for better blood circulation. By increasing blood flow back to the heart and reducing pressure on the veins, these stockings help prevent and treat venous symptoms and varicose veins.

Compression Levels: This garment is available in 15-25 mmHg compression levels.

Measuring Myself Correctly & Getting The Right Size: The size of the support socks is determined by the shoe size.

Garment Care: Proper care will increase the life of your garment. You can hand wash or machine wash your garment with warm water and mild soap or detergent. The Easy Care Kit sold in our Store includes a bottle washing solution made especially for this type of garment, a pair of rubber gloves for handling the garment, and a laundry bag. Daily washing can extend the life of the garment. Avoid chlorine bleach, fabric softeners, or products such as Woolite. If you're using a laundry machine, placing the garment in a mesh laundry bag will help protect it while it is in the machine. To rinse off, you may use warm water. You may roll the garment in a towel to remove excess moisture and lay the garment flat or hang to dry. However, you should not wring or twist the garment. While dryers are not recommended, if you must use a dryer then the garment could be dried on a delicate setting or low heat. Avoid ironing or dry cleaning the garment.

The garment is usually replaced every 3-6 months depending on how often you are wearing the garment and how you are caring for it. Typically, if your garment becomes easy to put on, it likely needs to be replaced.

Important Healthy Tips: As you may need to wear your garment everyday and/or frequently, it is a good idea to purchase 2 garments. Having two garments will enable you to always have a freshly clean garment, while the soiled one is being washed. When you wear this garment for the first time, you may notice that it is very tight. You may want to wear your garment gradually (or as directed by your physician), such as a few hours the first day and then gradually increasing the number of hours you wear the garment each day until it feels comfortable for you to wear the garment throughout the day. Wearing your garment consistently - everyday and/or frequently - is necessary for a variety of health conditions, as it is a therapy for a condition that you may be treating. For certain conditions, not wearing your garment might actually worsen the condition.
