How Do the Sigvaris Socks Work?

Venous conditions such as lymphedema can occur when blood does not flow from your extremities as freely as it should. To combat this, Sigvaris Compression Socks apply graded compression to your legs, which helps to encourage the flow of blood from your feet and legs.

What Colour Are The Socks?

The Sigvaris Socks are available in two colours. These socks are a professional black colour.

  • Black
  • Nickel

To shop the various colours, please see our full range of Sigvaris Initial Compression Socks.

How Comfortable Are the Socks?

Not only are the socks highly comfortable, but they are also extremely convenient. The socks are easy to pull on, and are very durable thanks to the specific construction of the top seam of the sock. The heel is reinforced for a cushioning effect as you walk, and the finely ribbed design will fit effortlessly with any of your outfit.

Which Level of Compression Do I Need?

These socks have a compression level of Afnor Class 1, which equates to 10 - 15mmHg of pressure. This is a light level of compression and may not be suited for more severe conditions. If you are unsure of which level of compression you require, we strongly suggest referring to a medical professional.
