Ultrasheer Medical Legwear For Women

The Jobst compression stocking collection includes medical legwear for women that offers high levels of compression in fashionable designs. UltraSheer support hose looks similar to regular stockings and is barely distinguishable by most people.

Unlike regular stockings, support hose uses elastic to create pressure that wraps your leg with graduating support stemming from the ankle. This reduces swelling and increases circulation. However, the elastic does not dampen the look or feel of the hosiery. The nylon and spandex yarn is combined with a silicone blend to make Jobst stocking easy to put on and comfortable with extended wear.
