"Because I am not a standard fit, it is difficult to find compression stockings that fit without creasing at the ankles or behind my knees. These are the best I have had. The Silicone Grip is great."
"Love these! I’ve had two knee replacements and also both hips and these are the easiest of all my sigvaris to get on. The larger tops are more comfortable and do not roll."
"I love these! Although these are not sheer and seem thick they are cool and comfortable. I love the silicone band. The socks stay up and the tops never roll so there is never a constricted feeling."
"The most comfortable pair of knee highs I have worn. The wide silicon band is the difference. I plan to buy another pair and toss out the old uncomfortable pairs that I now have!"
"Great stockings. Easy to put on and off."
