Overview

Staying up on the thigh without extra help is the job of the silicone top band on this Mediven stocking. The knit is soft and smooth, the toe is closed, and the listing says it is easy to put on for everyday wear.

Reason to consider it is the stay-up band and everyday comfort in a thigh-length style. Limitation is that the finish is not clearly described and the page has no size table beyond the label.

Who it's for

Adults with the conditions the seller lists, such as spider veins, varicose veins, edema or tired and heavy legs, who want thigh coverage. Those seeking free toes, a shorter sock or tumble-dry convenience should consider another option.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Silicone top band
  • Smooth stay-up fit
  • Soft durable fabric
Cons
  • Must hang to dry
  • No size table
  • Finish not described

Performance notes

A silicone band creates friction at the top of the thigh, which is how the stocking resists rolling down. Washing in the machine on a warm setting is allowed, but the band should be hung to dry rather than tumbled.
