Overview

Putting on this mediven Plus calf high means pulling a semi-sheer, MediSilk-yarn knit up to the knee. The discreet weave is meant to conceal blemishes, spider veins and varicose veins while graduated pressure runs the length of the leg.

Firm medical compression in a soft, smooth-looking stocking is the reason to look at it. The maker also lists easier application and better breathability from the MediSilk yarn. The limitation is that the size shows only as a roman numeral with no chart.

Who it's for

Daily use under regular clothes, by men or women who want firm graduated support, is the situation. People new to this strength should check with a clinician, and anyone needing a waist belt must choose a pantyhose style.

Pros and cons

  • Semi-sheer, smooth look

Performance notes

Graduated pressure is strongest at the ankle and decreases up the leg, which the maker says stimulates the entire leg. MediSilk yarn gives the knit a smooth surface and added stretch recovery. Sizing governs the real result, so match calf and ankle measurements to the maker's table.
