How much Compression?

I am a tennis player and have neoprene and ace sleeves and this feels like less compression than those since it is so lightweight but it also doesn't bother you if you wear it at night as those others do. I just found myself very allergic to the silicone bands that are part of it.

They are knee-high, and the compression goes up the calves. I could stand for the calf compression to be more and the cuff to be less. I don't know the compression value though.

Hi RD; it's to be carried in back pack or pannier etc; the straps you see in the picture have been pulled tight to produce the compression. Hope that makes sense :-)

we use a small tank compressor that get up to 60 lbs pressure. It is a light weight one that I can carry around my sewing room.

I would guess they are on the low end around 10-15 mmhg. If you are looking for higher compression these will not be what you're looking for. I can tell you myself and girlfriend wear them everyday to work and for being on our feet 10 hour shifts neither one of us have any foot pain when getting home now after wear this product.

With my head on the pillow it compresses to about 2.5 inches. I do have a pretty comically oversized head though.

It is completely compressible. Only limitation it has is how full you fill it 'cause that would determine if you could zip it !!!

its not to heavy, extremely stiff, I wouldn't think it would compress compactly.

We got the XL size and that is what we needed. My husband's legs were so swollen that we needed the XL. I thought they looked so big when we unpacked them, but when they are filled with air the compression was adequate and worked well.

I would guess about 120, maybe a few more depending how tight you want to fit them.

90 PSI on the compressor will work well. Anything higher than your target inflation number will be fine.

I can only guess, because the compression is not given anywhere online or with the socks. They feel like a 20-30 compression to me... that's the best I can tell you.

Hi, the higher the number, the more the compression. Usually your doctor will tell you what compression you need.Liz

You should be sized by your doctor. That way you are sure to get the correct size, as well as the right amount of compression. If there is too much compression, it can be really painful.

That depends on if it starts when you get it, mine had no compression when i received it. Yes it should

It's spring loaded and will compress from 11/2 down to 1 inch. Remember to reverse the adapter if it does not light up.

Compression, which works remarkably well. It compresses to the size of a football. Fantastic for backpacking.
