No need to compromise fashion for health. These lovely, ladies sheer compression knee high stockings have a surgical grade compression, but without the surgical grade look. Offering a fashionable alternative to the usual thick, opaque surgical weight hosiery. With sheer fabric for a more refined look, making these great to wear during summer. Reinforced heel and toe areas and non-constricting, soft, topband aid a comfort fit, and a roomy toe box area does not compress the toes like that of other support hosiery.
