Key Features

• Petite/Small Calf Proportioning: Designed with reduced circumference and length dimensions specifically scaled to fit smaller legs correctly, providing full therapeutic compression without excess fabric bunching or wrinkles.
• Silicone Dot Band for Smaller Calves: The secure-grip silicone band is proportionally positioned to prevent slippage on more tapered or slender calf shapes where standard elastic bands consistently fail to maintain grip.
• Firm Therapeutic Compression (20-30 mmHg): Delivers the full medical-grade pressure gradient in a size that correctly maps to petite anatomy for safe, effective, and comfortable compression treatment.
• Eliminates Excess Material Issues: Prevents the loose fabric, wrinkles, uneven compression, and improper pressure peaks that commonly occur when a standard size garment is too large for the wearer's leg dimensions.
• Improved Aesthetic Fit Under Clothing: Appears sleek, smooth, and discrete under pants, skirts, or professional attire, as it is specifically designed to contour properly to a smaller leg without folding or bunching.
• Durable, Scaled Fabrication: Made with the same robust 77% nylon, 23% spandex blend as standard sizes, specifically engineered to provide firm therapeutic support in the petite size range.
• Proper Compression Distribution: Ensures the graduated compression gradient is applied correctly from ankle to calf on smaller leg circumferences for optimal therapeutic effectiveness.
• Reinforced Heel Construction: Features reinforced heel pocket for durability and proper foot positioning, scaled appropriately for smaller foot and ankle dimensions.

Therapeutic Benefits and Use

• Ensures Correct Compression for Petite Individuals: A proper size fit is the absolute foundation of effective compression therapy; this petite size delivers the intended 20-30 mmHg therapeutic pressure precisely where it is needed on a smaller leg structure.
• Solves the Chronic "Slippage" Problem for Small Calves: The combination of a proportionally smaller size and medical-grade silicone band provides a definitive secure solution for those who have never found a compression stocking that stays up throughout the day.
• Reduces Skin Irritation from Poor Fit: A well-fitted garment minimizes friction, eliminates pressure points, and prevents the chafing and discomfort that commonly result from oversized compression stockings sliding or bunching.
• Provides Confidence and All-Day Comfort: Wearers can be fully assured their compression therapy is both therapeutically effective and physically comfortable, which significantly improves long-term treatment adherence and outcomes.
• Manages Moderate Venous Symptoms Effectively: Correctly applies firm graduated compression to support weakened vein walls and reduce swelling in individuals with smaller leg dimensions who have been underserved by standard sizing.
• Ideal for Petite-Framed Men and Women: Addresses the specific therapeutic needs of a patient population often overlooked by one-size-fits-most compression ranges, ensuring access to proper medical treatment.
• Prevents Therapeutic Complications: Proper sizing prevents tourniquet effects, uneven pressure distribution, and other complications that can arise from wearing incorrectly sized compression garments.
• Enables Active Lifestyle Maintenance: The secure fit allows petite individuals to remain active, exercise, and move confidently while receiving consistent firm compression therapy throughout the day.

Important Medical Notice

Consult your physician before use. This petite size is specifically designed for smaller leg dimensions. Do not size up from your actual measurements to fit a standard size chart—this defeats the purpose of the petite sizing. Accurate measurement per our sizing guide is critical for therapeutic effectiveness. Contraindications include arterial disease, severe peripheral neuropathy, congestive heart failure, or known silicone allergy. Compression garments are a medical treatment and proper sizing is essential for both safety and efficacy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need a petite or small calf size?
If standard compression socks are consistently loose, wrinkled, baggy, or constantly slide down despite following correct measurement procedures, you likely need a petite or small calf size. Compare your actual ankle and calf measurements to the specific petite size chart provided with this product. If your measurements fall within the petite range, this is the correct size for you.

Is the compression level the same in petite sizes as standard sizes?
Yes, the 20-30 mmHg therapeutic pressure is identical to standard sizes. The petite garment is proportionally smaller in circumference and length to apply that same medical-grade pressure correctly to a smaller limb surface area, ensuring you receive the full therapeutic benefit.

Where can I find the petite size chart for accurate measurement?
The petite-specific size chart is available on this product page and in the product packaging. It is imperative to use this specific petite chart, not a standard sizing chart, as the measurement ranges are different. Our general measuring guide shows you the correct technique for measuring your leg dimensions.

What if I'm between petite and standard sizes on the chart?
Always choose the size that corresponds to your largest measurement point (typically the calf circumference). If your calf measurement is at the top of the petite range, the petite size is correct. If it exceeds the petite range maximum, even slightly, choose the standard size to avoid over-compression. Our compression therapy guide explains compression levels in detail.

Will the silicone band work as effectively on smaller calves?
Yes, the silicone band is proportionally positioned and engineered specifically for petite calf dimensions. It provides the same secure, non-slip grip on smaller calves as standard sizes do on average calves, ensuring your compression stays properly positioned throughout the day.

Can petite sizes accommodate very short leg lengths as well?
Yes, petite sizing typically includes shorter overall garment length in addition to smaller circumferences. This ensures proper knee positioning and prevents excess fabric at the top of the calf. Check the specific petite size chart for length measurements to ensure proper fit.
