Second Skin Soft Diabetic Knee High 8-15 mmHg — Mild Below-Knee Support

Second Skin Soft Diabetic knee highs deliver 8-15 mmHg mild graduated compression from ankle to below the knee, held in place by a non-binding top. Full-cushioned acrylic yarns that wick moisture and carry an anti-microbial finish. Available in X-Small to X-Large. This sits in the mild compression class, indicated for tired or heavy legs, mild puffiness in the ankle, leg or foot, long hours standing or seated, flights and long drives.

  • 8-15 mmHg Mild Gradient: Graduated pressure greatest at the ankle, decreasing along the limb.
  • Fabric: Full-cushioned acrylic yarns that wick moisture and carry an anti-microbial finish.
  • Non-Binding Top: A non-binding top.
  • Latex Free: Contains no natural rubber latex.
  • Eases Heavy, Tired Legs: Addresses the heaviness that builds through long periods on your feet or seated.
  • Limits End-of-Day Puffiness: Helps keep mild fluid build-up in the ankle and foot under control.
  • Assists Blood Flow: Gentle ankle-upward pressure works with the calf muscle pump to move blood back toward the heart.
  • Useful Before Symptoms Start: Mild compression is widely worn preventively rather than only once problems appear.
  • No Toe Seam: A linked closure removes the ridge that rubs over a long day.
  • Below-Knee Coverage: Pressure is concentrated over the calf and ankle, where lower-limb fluid gathers first.
  • Tired or heavy legs
  • Mild puffiness in the ankle, leg or foot
  • Long hours standing or seated
  • Flights and long drives
  • Swelling that stops below the knee
  • Varicose veins in the calf and ankle

Second Skin Soft Diabetic is our great value compression range. This style is a unisex knee high knit in full-cushioned acrylic yarns that wick moisture and carry an anti-microbial finish, finished with a non-binding top, delivering 8-15 mmHg mild graduated compression. Browse the full Second Skin range.

The numbers are the pressure at the ankle in millimetres of mercury, decreasing along the limb. 8-15 mmHg is the mild class, indicated for tired or heavy legs, mild puffiness in the ankle, leg or foot, long hours standing or seated, flights and long drives. Our compression therapy guide explains each level.

Compression sizing isn't standardised across brands — a Medium in one brand is often not a Medium in another, so go by your measurements rather than the size you wore last. Measure first thing in the morning before swelling builds, against bare skin with the tape snug but not constricting, then match the result to the chart on this page. Our measuring guide walks through each measurement.

Turn the garment inside out to the heel, work the foot in first, then roll it up the limb in stages rather than pulling from the top, which stretches the band. Rubber gloves or a donning aid make it easier. Full instructions are in our guide to putting on compression stockings.

Wash after each wear in cool or lukewarm water with a gentle solution — never fabric softener or bleach — and air dry away from direct heat. Most people rotate two pairs so a clean, dry pair is always ready. Full instructions and washing solutions are in our care guide.

I need compression stockings for

"I need compression stockings for my lower leg issues, these stockings are the best of many, many tries of different styles/fits. These stockings are put on without the need of FIXTURES that are needed for other stockings. I put them on by hand, the compression is fantastic, they stay below the kree all day and the DO NOT BOTHER MY BUNIONS. Cannot beat the price and free shipping--they arrive very quickly."
