Whether you’re an active runner, work on your feet all day, or suffer from a condition which causes swollen or painful legs or feet, you may find much needed relief by wearing compression hosiery.
Compression hosiery, socks, or stockings are specially designed with extra firm material such as elastic to help reduce swelling and improve circulation. Here at Dream Products, we offer a variety of compression leg-wear to choose from. One in particular, Zippered Compression Stockings, is a favorite of one of our very own staff members, Linda, who shares her personal experience:
For years I have suffered with ankle swelling, particularly in one leg. No doctor has been able to determine the cause of the swelling. Over the years I have tried many products, but it seems that the only thing that really helps to control the swelling is when I wear compression socks or stockings.
Problem is, by nature of what compression stockings are, they are so tight and difficult to get off and on! Then I discovered we carry Zippered Compression Stockings here at Dream Products! What an ingenious idea! You still have the tightness for the compression benefit as you wear the stocking, but because you can zip it up, it takes the struggle out of putting them on and taking them off!
These Zippered Compression Stockings can be worn with shoes and/or socks and you can wear them all day long! They even have an open toe, so if you want to wear sandals no one needs to know you are also wearing compression stockings!
Doctors recommend compression support to help increase circulation, reduce swelling and fluid retention, support aching muscles and ease the pain and discomfort of varicose veins. With all these great benefits, and now that the zip up feature allows for easy on/off, you won’t find a compression stocking you will like more!

These are a great idea. However they need to be available in PLUS SIZES, wider and longer.

I ordered these and they did give me some relief. BUT the lock on one of the socks broke and of course the sock then would not stay up. I would buy another pair if I thought the zipper lock would stay locked Mary Meikle
Thanks for your feedback Mary, we will pass this to our Quality Assurance team. We appreciate it!

I agree enthusiastically with Sheila!. I do NOT have swollen and/or large legs or calves, but when putting on these stockings for the first time, I could not get the zipper to come all the way to the top, only about 2/3 of the way up, and then it broke, WITHOUT a lot of pulling from me! My first thought was that these stockings were the most “cheaply” made stockings that I had ever tried on! I was so disgusted with them that I threw into the trash immediately and swore never to buy another pair! I would be willing to try another pair, provided there was a free return policy if the stockings do not fit on this second try.
I really like the concept of these stockings -having a zipper- because I have a bad back and arthritis in my knees, and is the stockings fit, I believe that they could help relieve some of the discomfort/pain involved when putting on any kind of stockings.
Hi April, thank you for your feedback! There is a really good way of zipping them up, and it’s by slowly holding the zipper parts close together as you zip up. We’re sorry to hear it broke and would like to send you a replacement as soon as we verify some information. Keep an eye out for an email from one of our Customer Service Supervisors!

I haven’t tried the socks but am thinking about it because after sitting at a desk all day my feet and legs are so swollen.
