Overview
Long shifts on a hospital floor, a shop counter or an office chair are where this waist-high JOBST compression hose earns its place. An opaque knit hides varicose veins, a wide waistband smooths lines, and a silicone softener in the yarn eases putting it on.
Opaque fabric covers veins and scars while the waist-high cut spreads compression along the whole leg. Reinforced heel and toe zones help them hold up to daily wear. Firmer graduated compression takes effort to put on and is usually chosen with medical advice.
Who it's for
Nurses, retail workers and people with vein problems who want firm support and full coverage can wear them through long shifts. Those after a light everyday stocking will find the compression and the opaque knit heavier than they need.

Performance notes
Graduated pressure is strongest at the ankle and eases toward the waist, which helps blood return from the legs. Putting them on early in the day, before swelling, makes the fit more even. Moisture wicking yarn reduces heat buildup on long wear.
