Allegro 20-30mmHg Essential 9 Sheer Compression Stockings - Thigh High, Open Toe, Compression Stockings for Women

The good: They are sheer, and the support level is pretty good. They were also easy to put on, if you are used to compression hose and know the technique. They also stayed up well without rolling.The not-so-good: They do not come all the way up the thigh. I am 5' 4" and they hit me about mid-thigh. This means that if you need full leg compression for lymph-edema, your thigh will have a muffin-top. Also the color, "nude", is more of a reddish-brown "suntan" shade, based on the typical hosiery colors.Bottom line, I will wear them for short durations only, to avoid the effects of the lack of upper leg compression.

I have tried many brands of compression hose but this one is absolutely the most comfortable. Of course, they're hard to get on as all compression hose, but once they're on, fabulous! And they STAY UP! I have found my favorite brand!

Had my spider veins worked on. This is a great option to full support hose.

Not sure the open toe yet

When my doctor told me to start wearing compression hose (varicose veins), I inwardly moaned and put off buying them. These were, however a very pleasant surprise. #1. They really work. After long days of traveling, my ankles/lower legs were neither swollen nor achy. #2. Yes, it takes some effort to pull them on properly, but once they're on, they stay in place and are comfortable. #3. They are much cheaper than the Jobst brand, but the quality is every bit as good. I'll be buying more pairs.

Arthritic thumbs cannot put these on. Legs felt better for a while but after a couple of hours they started hurting.

The hose were exactly as I had hoped. Color great with a nice sheer. I did have quite a bit of trouble getting them on No problem with hosiery but they were purchased to wear over prosthesis, which has no bend or give So, I definitely can't wait until last minute to put on. Very nice, snug fit. I will purchase more
