JOBST ActiveWear Knee High 15-20 mmHg Compression Socks

$56.34

JOBST® ActiveWear knee-high compression socks are a medical garment for women and men, knitted at 15-20 mmHg. The compression is graduated — firmest at the ankle and easing as it goes up the leg — which supports the return of blood from the legs towards the heart.

ActiveWear is JOBST's comfort-first line for walking, hiking and long days on your feet. Dri-Release® yarn feels like cotton against the skin and moves moisture away, the foot is cushioned with a reinforced heel and toe, and the seamless toe removes the ridge that rubs.

The knee-high length covers the foot and lower leg and finishes just below the knee. A closed toe encloses the toes like an ordinary sock. JOBST lists 15-20 mmHg for minor varicose veins, tired and aching legs, pregnancy, prevention, travel, and minor limb swelling.

This product provides mild, over-the-counter compression (15-20 mmHg), below the medical-grade 20-30 mmHg threshold. Canadian extended health benefit plans (e.g. Sun Life, Manulife, Canada Life, Blue Cross, Green Shield Canada) generally reserve coverage for medical-grade compression of 20-30 mmHg or higher with a prescription, so this item is not usually eligible. If reimbursement is a factor, please confirm your plan's terms with your provider before ordering. We're happy to prepare an itemized estimate for your insurer — use Get an Insurance Estimate for this item, or add several to your cart and request one for everything at once. No charge, and it's not an order.

Measure first thing in the morning, before swelling builds, with the tape snug but not tight.

LFC and XLFC are the L and XL sizes cut wider through the calf. Choose one if your calf is wider than the chart allows at your ankle size.

Check the size chart below. If your measurements don't fit a size on it, contact us and we'll help.

Wash daily, or at least every other day — by hand or on a gentle machine cycle in warm water up to 40°C (104°F)
Use a mild liquid detergent; do not use fabric softener, optical brightener or stain remover
Rinse thoroughly; do not bleach, dry clean or iron
Do not wring — roll the garment in a towel and press out the excess water
Dry flat, away from radiators and out of direct sunlight; check your garment's own label before tumble drying

How to put on your JOBST ActiveWear knee-high compression socks:

Turn the stocking inside out all the way down to the heel
Using both hands, pull apart the folded-in foot part and pull it over your foot, all the way to the heel
Gradually pull the stocking over the instep and heel
Work the stocking upward, returning it to a right-side-out position piece by piece
Smooth it out by massaging with both hands until it sits without creases — rubber gloves make this much easier

Wear your compression garments regularly and consistently. JOBST recommends putting them on in the morning, immediately after getting up.
