A guide to getting the right compression socks/tights.
In order to get the right compression you need to get the right size on your support socks/compression stockings.
Different models have different measurements.
When you look at a specific article you will find the correct size table among the pictures. Most often it is the last picture.
Knee-high compression socks/support socks
For knee-socks you always use your ancle measurement and sometimes the circumference of the calf. The size chart can be found among the pictures of every specific model.
Stay-up, compression tights/support tights
For stay-up, compression tights and compression tights length and weight are used to make sure they fit in length as well as circumference. The size chart can be found among the pictures of every specific model.
Compression tights for pregnant woman

Then look at length and weight in the diagram below to see if the sizes correspond. If the sizes are the same the compression tights/stay-up will fit you.
If your ancle measurement have one size and your length/weight measurement have another size it means that you can not get the right compression with that model.
