Washing Compression Stockings

You bought compression stockings and want to maintain them as well as possible. It makes sense, and it's advisable. Proper maintenance / washing of your compression stockings ensures that they will last longer. However, you can't treat these like normal socks. 

 

Washing machine 

Compression stockings can be washed in the washing machine. We do advise you to wash them in a bag. It's important not to set the temperature above 40 degrees. Use hand wash to let the compression stockings air again. Note! Rinse the compression stockings properly!

 

Drying your compression stockings

To properly dry your compression stockings, it is best to do the following things. Roll the compression stockings in a towel and let them dry. It is very important not to wring it out. Also, you should never put the stockings in a dryer. Compression stockings are provided with elastic. This elastic can't withstand the heat of a dryer. You can't let the compression stockings dry out in the sun. So rolled up in a towel only.
