"I've purchased these same stockings since 2021 and will continue to do so "forever ". My favorite pair."
"The stockings fit very well and worth the money."
"I have spinal stenosis, and I love these cotton thigh, high stockings however, one of the stockings keeps rolling down off my thigh. Brand new I’m disappointed I really need it for my left leg so I use only one disappointed that the other leg is rolling down from the top like somethings wrong I don’t know. I have to glue it, and I don’t have to go to the good one"
"These compressions feel so good, they stay up, don't pinch your skin, breathable"
"They are ok"
"So much more comfortable then the traditional material! And come in tall sizes!! The best I have worn."
"This product runs a little smaller that the other products from the same brand."
"Excellent product but I Would prefer to have more choices as to the coloer- a lighter choice of body color, would make it perfect for me. in Europe they have the option."
"I ordered the open toe because the continual use of the closed toe were causing a sore big toenail. I will still be able to wear the closed toe and appreciate the relief that both sets bring instantly. Thankful to get these ones on sale and shipping was quick especially in the busy Christmas season."
"EXSPENSIVE, BUT I LOVE COTTON & GOOD QUALITY OF THIS PRODUCT."
