Two layers of soft, lightweight MicroSpring Textile™ form a loose-fitting tube that stays in place to protect fragile skin from pressure, friction and minor traumas that result in tears, bruising and abrasions. Unlike traditional fabric sleeves or stockings that are tight and binding, the layers of microfilaments allow air-flow and moisture transfer.
Simply slip the tube over the leg, there are no hook and loop fasteners or tight fitting spandex. The narrower end of the tube gently rests on the ankle to keep it from falling off. The cross microfilaments in the MicroSpring Textile allows these soft tubes to be self-supporting - they won’t slip down or bunch up.
