Key Features

• Open Toe Chap Design: A specialized compression sleeve that provides firm therapeutic pressure from the foot to just below the knee, with an open toe for superior ventilation, comfort, and medical access.
• Targeted Firm Compression (20-30 mmHg): Delivers therapeutic graduated pressure specifically to the foot and calf area, ideal for localized swelling, post-procedure care, or conditions confined to the lower leg.
• Unilateral Therapy Solution: Designed as a single sleeve for treating one leg, making it a cost-effective and practical choice for unilateral conditions without purchasing unnecessary bilateral garments.
• Enhanced Breathability and Ventilation: The open toe design significantly reduces heat and moisture buildup, improving comfort during extended wear and promoting skin health.
• Accommodates Toe and Forefoot Conditions: Allows ample space for toe deformities, sensitive nails, or the application of dressings on the toes without compromising lower leg compression.
• Durable, Comfortable Fabric: Made with a 78% nylon, 22% spandex blend that provides firm support while remaining gentle on the skin for all-day wear.
• Eliminates Knee Constriction: Stops below the knee, avoiding the discomfort of knee bands for those with knee arthritis, wounds, or sensitivity.

Consult your physician before use if you have: arterial disease, severe peripheral neuropathy, massive edema from congestive heart failure, or a known allergy to any material in the garment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a "chap" style compression garment?
A chap is a specialized compression sleeve that covers the foot and calf but stops below the knee, leaving the knee and thigh free. It's used for conditions isolated to the lower leg and is often chosen for its targeted approach and easier donning compared to full stockings.

How do I measure for a chap compression garment?
Focus on ankle circumference, calf circumference, and foot measurements. Measure in the morning when swelling is minimal. Please refer to our detailed compression stocking sizing guide for specific step-by-step instructions.

When should I choose a chap over a knee-high compression stocking?
Choose a chap if you do not need compression at or above the knee, if you have a condition (like a knee wound, recent knee surgery, or arthritis) that makes wearing a knee-high band uncomfortable, or if your symptoms are confined to the foot and calf area.

Who should wear 20-30 mmHg compression stockings?
This firm compression level treats moderate varicose veins, persistent edema, aids post-surgical recovery, and helps manage chronic venous insufficiency. See our compression therapy guide for comprehensive details on compression levels.

Can I wear this with regular socks or shoes?
Yes, the chap design stops below the knee, allowing you to wear regular socks over it if desired. The open toe accommodates most footwear styles comfortably.

How do I put on a chap compression stocking?
Turn the chap inside out to the heel pocket, insert your foot ensuring the heel is properly positioned, then gradually roll or pull the sleeve up your calf to just below the knee. Use donning aids if needed for easier application.
