5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product used in hospitals all over the USA for years.
I am quite familiar with this product as a nurse. Hospitals have used this product in one variation or another for years. Nurses wear them all the time for support while they are on their feet for hours at a time.

This gives excellent support to your feet, ankles, and your legs, without being too restrictive and hard to tolerate like some other Futuro stockings.The toe room is generous and does not compress at all. A winner of a product, especially at the lower Amazon price, compared to other sites.

5.0 out of 5 stars Compression socks, October 15, 2008
After working on concrete for 25 years, my legs and feet HURT.

I then became disabled. My feet and legs still hurt. Now I had an additional problem. My lower legs swelled because I spent to much sedentary time. While seeing a doctor for another problem he remarked about my legs. He suggested that I find a drugstore that carried this product. They were a bit pricey, but I decided to try them.I purchased a single pair. I liked them. While wearing them I didn't even notice that I was wearing something different than my standard tube sock. My aching legs almost entirely disappeared. I searched online and found this product at a much better price through www.Amazon.com I purchased several pair and am happy with the product and Amazon.com.

The futuro anti-embolism stockings are perfect. They are the right solution to the problem of lower leg swelling.

5.0 out of 5 stars my legs feel so much better, June 23, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
These are a compression stocking that look like just about any plain white knee-high. They fit well and make my legs feel great.

I initially bought this pair of compression stockings for a long plane trip (on the advice of one of my co-workers who is an RN). My legs felt so great when wearing them I've bought several pairs now.

I did not think I had a problem with lowwer leg swelling but at the end of the day when wearing these stockings I can tell the difference.

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS REALLY WORKS!, November 7, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I developed a blood clot after a flight last month and have been on blood thinners. Walking was difficult and my feet were always swollen. Acting on my doctor's advice I purchased compression stockings made in Europe. But the stockings were waist high, thick and virtually impossible to get on. They were more like some Victorian contraption and quite expensive but were the only things available locally. Needless to say I wore them twice and just could not tolerate them afterward. Then I saw these Futura stockings on Amazon and with some hesitation ordered them out of desperation. To my surprise and joy they really work! They are very easy to slip on (it takes about 2 minutes) and even more comfortable to wear. My swelling has gone down at least 50% and I can walk without pain.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for air travel, February 7, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought these stockings in hopes that they would help the swelling in my ankles and calves on long-haul flights. I have just arrived in Germany from the West coast of the USA and am extremely happy to report that I can see my ankle bones! These stockings are a miracle!

5.0 out of 5 stars My experience, April 8, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I erronously thought the item never arrived. When I asked about it, they sent a replacement order without any questions, thus I wound up with a free item(s). Because of the no nonsense approach, I told them to bill me for the second (and could have been free) set of socks. Customer service supreme, what a concept!!

This review is from: Futuro. Anti-Embolism Stockings, Medium Regular, White, Knee Length, Closed Toe, 1 Pair (Health and Beauty)
I was going to be on a 9 hour flight 2 weeks after my abdominal surgery so I was advised to be careful as blood clots are common after surgery and on long flights.

I ended up using these after the surgery as they were not as tight as the one the hospital gave me. They were comfortable enough that I could wear them for the entire 9 hour flight (each way) and thankfully no blood clots.

5.0 out of 5 stars Relife for my legs, December 24, 2007
This review is from: Futuro. Anti-Embolism Stockings, Medium Regular, White, Knee Length, Closed Toe, 1 Pair (Health and Beauty)
These are the best Anti-Embolism compression stockings for the $$$ I have used. I used them on a resent cross country driving trip and they worked great.
I recommend them to others.
