Types of compression pantyhose in this collection
The pantyhose in this collection fall into four groups, listed here from the largest to the smallest.
Sheer pantyhose
Sheer pantyhose give graduated compression with a lighter, dressier look. This range has a 15-20 mmHg sheer style and a medium sheer 20-30 mmHg style. Both have a closed toe. They suit office wear, events and travel days. Browse the 15-20 mmHg compression socks for more everyday support.
Soft opaque pantyhose
Soft opaque pantyhose cover the leg with a solid, matte finish that suits cooler weather and work outfits. Most of this range is soft opaque, in both 15-20 and 20-30 mmHg, with a closed toe. Many shoppers choose the 20-30 mmHg compression pantyhose for long shifts. See the 20-30 mmHg compression socks for matching knee high styles.
Open toe pantyhose
Open toe compression pantyhose leave the toes free, which helps with sandals, open shoes and toe comfort. This range has one soft opaque open toe style in 20-30 mmHg. Shoppers who prefer a shorter length can compare open toe compression socks for the same toe style.
Maternity pantyhose
Maternity pantyhose are cut with extra room at the waist for pregnancy. This range has a soft opaque maternity style in 20-30 mmHg with a closed toe. Ask your doctor or midwife which level is right for you before you buy. For other lengths, see thigh high compression stockings.
Check each product page for exact sizes, colours and compression level before you order.
How do you choose compression pantyhose?
Pick the mmHg level
Start with the level your doctor suggests. This range offers 15-20 mmHg for everyday support and travel, and 20-30 mmHg for firmer support. A higher number means more pressure at the ankle. Do not pick a level just because it feels tighter.
Measure before you order
Measure your ankle, calf, thigh and hip in cm and inches. Then match the numbers to the size chart on the product page. Measure in the morning. If you fall between sizes, ask a pharmacist or fitter instead of sizing down.
Choose sheer or soft opaque
Sheer pantyhose look lighter and suit dresses and events. Soft opaque pantyhose give more coverage and suit cooler days and work outfits. Both looks use graduated compression, so the choice depends on your outfit and your season.
Match the toe to your shoes
Closed toe pantyhose cover the whole foot and suit most shoes. Open toe pantyhose leave the toes free for sandals or open shoes. Most styles in this range are closed toe, and one style is open toe.
Plan for pregnancy
A maternity style has extra room at the waist, so it stays comfortable as your body changes. This range has one 20-30 mmHg maternity style. Talk to your doctor or midwife about the right level first.
Where do these pantyhose work best?
Work days are the most common use for these pantyhose. Nurses, teachers, retail staff and office workers spend long hours on their feet. Graduated compression is designed to help with tired legs by the end of the day. Sheer and soft opaque styles blend with skirts and dress pants. Explore the full compression wear range for more options.
Travel is another good fit for these pantyhose. Long flights, car rides and train trips keep your legs still for hours. Support pantyhose with graduated compression can help with swelling. Many travellers pick 15-20 mmHg for comfort. If you want a shorter style, browse knee high compression socks.
Pregnancy and daily swelling also bring shoppers here. A maternity style gives room at the waist. The firmer 20-30 mmHg level is often chosen for swelling and varicose veins. Always ask your doctor which level helps with your needs. Closed toe styles are also covered in the closed toe compression socks collection.
How do you put on and care for pantyhose?
Put pantyhose on in the morning, before your legs start to swell. Gather the fabric and slide your foot in. Then ease the leg up in small sections without pulling at the top. Rubber gloves help you grip the fabric. Wash them gently in lukewarm water and air dry them away from heat. Follow the care label on each product page.

Pantyhose questions and answers
What does graduated compression do in pantyhose?
Graduated compression in pantyhose is snuggest at the ankle and eases gently up the leg. This design helps with tired legs, swelling and long hours standing or sitting. It does not replace medical advice, so ask your doctor which mmHg level suits you.
What mmHg level should I choose?
Many people start with 15-20 mmHg for tired legs, standing and travel. The 20-30 mmHg level is firmer and is often chosen for swelling or varicose veins. Higher levels usually need advice from a healthcare provider. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before you buy.
How many hours a day should you wear pantyhose with compression?
Many people put them on in the morning. They wear them through the day and take them off at night. Your doctor may suggest a different schedule for your needs. Remove them if you feel numbness, pain or tingling, and ask a professional for advice.
Are maternity compression pantyhose safe during pregnancy?
Doctors and midwives often suggest compression for pregnancy leg swelling, but each pregnancy is different. Ask your care provider before you start. A maternity cut gives extra room at the waist, so the pantyhose stay comfortable as your body changes.
How do I find my size?
Measure your ankle, calf, thigh and hip, plus your height and weight. Then match them to the size chart on the product page. Measure in the morning, when swelling is usually lowest. Do not size down to get more compression, because a poor fit can feel painful.
Who should not wear compression tights?
People with severe peripheral artery disease, serious leg infections or some heart problems may need to avoid compression. Always check with your doctor first. Stop wearing the pantyhose and call a professional if you notice colour changes, numbness or pain.
