What about wearing platform sandals with these hose? I HAVE to do so for a lecture I am giving and I NEED to wear something like this for circulation

Personally, I would not wear this stockings with sandals, especially if it was an open toe sandal.

I would think it is possible. Although it may be obvious you have on some sort of hose, since these are kinda thick. I was able to wear my regular shoes while I wore these.

You might want to look for a pair with no toes or heels, they do make them, otherwise, the heels and toes are very well reinforced, the toes are actually to big for me but I just tuck them under and it's quite comfy.. You can always call them, they are as I have said before, extremely helpful, and while thicker than your normal panty hose or knee highs, your legs WILL fee wonderful.

These would probably not be good with sandals because they have a reinforced toe.

probably get a med or small. I wear one, it's more about fixing my foot than fashion, and it helped!

Absolutely. If the toe area of your shoes are already tight, this might be too much. But otherwise, this is fine for any shoes.

only exceptionally light support unless you get one smaller than your arm which i do not suggest. you could cut off the toes of a tube sock if thats what you want..... :/

Matthew - the size chart at Active Ankle states you would use a Medium. http://www.activeankle.com/images/stories/rigids_sizingchart/SizingChart_t1.jpgThe bottom of the brace is plastic and quite slick on the floor. I always wear my shoe with it. Maybe in the sand it wouldn't be too bad as far being slick of course, but still not sure it would be comfortable.

Absolutely! You won't feel anything. Running or any activity shouldn't be a problem. They will just all the sudden start to peel. It isn't the prettiest process, so be prepared to not wear sandals for a few days.

Certainly. The only thing I've found I need to be careful of, is that compression hose that stretch tightly on the foot (which these do not on me) will develop holes from friction very quickly inside running shoes.

Hi Josie regarding your question. Yes.if the shoe has heel support it's ok no matter if it is high or pump.you can't use it w/sandals it slip backwards(no heel support) Orthaheel is wonderful

Absolutely not. I'm 5'2" 115lbs and it was cutting my circulation. Plus I didn't wear gloves when I was putting it on and my knuckles skin burnt off. A week later they haven't healed yet. I think I'm going to take the pantyhose back. It's too thick and uncomfortable. I had once bought great ones that looked like regular hose, but had great compression. Will look for them instead.

You can as long as your foot placement is correct. Heels only. Ive done it before. But I would still use shoes.

It depends on how open the toe area of the sandal. I find I have to wear a sock or footie when wearing the Toe Buddy, in any type of shoe, because it catches on the shoe and comes off. These toe supports work better then anything I have tried. My toes stay in place and they are very comfortable. I had to get rid of the calluses between my toes, because of discomfort when first wearing the Toe Buddies. Now I don't even realize I have them on.

Neoprene socks might be better. Foot pocket runs narrow so booties with soul might be a tight fit

These sockes are like dress socks and I read that u can use them at rest and while walking and daily activities...like my husband does. I don't see why you couldn't . I think it would help the swelling and from your legs becoming for fatigued and get better results from the compression. My hubbie sometimes wears regular socks over the compression socks to help reduce any friction. It's up to your comfort level

I love the idea of it, but mine is larger than the same type I used at therapy - stretches my socks too much, so hardly use it. I wish Amazon would stock a narrow one for women's socks. No on compression. I was able to use compression in rehab, but as I said their's was narrower.

Problem is it would require a larger shoe than the one you are probably wearing. If you are not walking on it you may be able to get by with your existing shoe but it would have to be loose. I think because there is no way to keep it from sliding you may end up with a blister. I believe they have another product that has a strap that goes around the ankle that would keep it in place and keep it from sliding but you would still run into the same problem of it being larger than a sock.

Yes. Mine is stretching a pair of Steve Madden cloth pumps atm. (Nala Leopard)

I loved this when my Achilles bothers me. Great for icing. I think you would be ok. It fits by molding around your foot so it's not by the length. Maybe your toes wouldn't be out as much but I think you would be fine I wear a 7 1/2 normally.
