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.
