Activa® Class 1 Thigh Stockings

Thigh-length Class 1 compression, worn with a suspender or body glue

Support that carries on above the knee. Activa® Class 1 Thigh Stockings run from the foot to the top of the thigh and give light graduated compression, UK Class 1 at 14-17mmHg, firmest at the ankle and easing up the leg. They are designed for the management of varicose veins and tired, aching legs. This is not a hold-up style, so you may need a suspender belt or body glue to keep the top band in place.

Compression and knit

  • May help ease tired, aching legs during daily wear
  • UK Class 1 British Standard compression, 14-17mmHg, light
  • Graduated knit, firmest at the ankle, easing up the leg
  • Ultra-fine nylon and Lycra Soft blend, from Lohmann & Rauscher
  • Latex-free

Sizes, colours and washing

Closed Toe and Unisex, in four sizes and three colours. Measure both legs before you order, as one leg is often a different size from the other. Thigh stockings take more work to pull on than below-knee ones, so an application aid is worth having if bending or gripping is hard.

  • Sizes: Small, Medium, Large, X-Large
  • Colours: Black, Honey, Sand
  • Machine wash at or below 40°C
  • Do not tumble dry or iron

It's important to get the right fit when it comes to compression garments. That's why Daylong Shop recommends that you contact a nurse, GP or pharmacist to ensure that compression hosiery is appropriate for you. If so, you will then need to be measured in order to obtain the correct size which will ensure that the garment works correctly and feels comfortable.

My full length stockings are excellent for flattening my extensive varicose veins - just not so good in the heatwave we are currently experiencing (June 2026), which Daylong unfortunately can't control.

Excellent product help my legs circulation a lot , i am a type 2 diabetic and have worn these for years but you need suspenders to keep them in place , i wear a six strap corsellette for this purpose although i am a man.

Excellent product does what it says helps my painful legs a lot.

Richard Leighton

I bought this to wear while I'm waiting for my measured compression garment to arrive. It has helped but it doesn't stay on at the top very well. It slips and causes fluid to build up around my knee. It could do with something to grip to the leg at the top. Otherwise it is comfortable to wear and easy to put on.

Peter Moores

Excellent for my oedema in both legs which is worse at the knees and thighs.

William Murray

I've been buying these for several years now to help with varicose veins. They're good quality and reasonably priced. Delivery is good - they are sent via Royal Mail in padded envelopes that fit through the letterbox, so no need to be at home for the delivery.

Alice Jones

Great Stockings. , but i need to wear a girdle to hold them up.
