Medical Compression Stockings

The FITLEGS AES range also offers a grip version which provides enhanced grip on the sole to give extra confidence and help reduce the risk of falls during injury rehabillitation and for those with reduced mobility. Available in a wide range of sizes, styles and colours. Explore our full range of FITLEGS medical compression stockings below.

Our AES medical compression stockings are available as open and closed toe versions for your convenience. Made from cotton and with no latex, these medical socks can be worn by anyone, and the four-way stretch in the material helps with easier application and increased comfort for long-term wear.

What level of compression do medical stockings come in?

Medical compression stockings have a higher level of compression than regular compression socks. For example our Fitlegs 2 range has a compression level of 23-32 mmHg whereas our standard AES range has a compression level of 18mmHg.

Are Anti-Embolism Stockings the same as compression socks?

Yes and no. Everyday compression socks and medical compression stockings share the same design features and work in the same way. They both provide graduated compression from the ankle up the leg to increase circulation and reduce the symptoms of DVT, oedema and other aches and pains. However, FITLEGS Anti-Embolism Stockings conform to the Sigel compression profile, specifically developed to reduce the incidence of DVT in patients with significantly restricted mobility in hospitals and immediately after discharge. Typically Anti-Embolism Stockings are worn post-surgery in hospital whereas standard compression stockings are typically worn for everyday use and prevention.
