LipoCare® Strong Class 2 Leggings

Flat-knit Class 2 leggings with an adjustable waist strap

LipoCare® Strong Leggings are flat-knitted for high containment, in EU Class 2 (23-32mmHg) compression, designed for the management of lipoedema, lipolymphoedema and lymphoedema. The yarn is a soft microfibre, so a firm garment stays comfortable next to the skin. They come from Cizeta Medicali, an Italian maker of medical compression garments.

Compression and knit

• May help contain adipose tissue and ease the feeling of heavy legs during daily wear
• EU Class 2, 23-32mmHg
• Flat-knitted structure, built for firm containment rather than fine everyday hosiery
• Microfibre yarn, soft against the skin and breathable for longer wear
• Lightened weave through the groin, so the leggings are easier to position
• Latex free

Fit, sizes and colours

The waist fastens with an adjustable Velcro strap, so the fit can be set at the waist instead of relying on the knit alone. Compression is reduced at the ankle to avoid a tourniquet effect. Unisex sizing runs 1/XS, 2/S, 3/M, 4/L, 5/XL and 6/XXL, in Normal and Short lengths, in Black or Havana. Flat-knit fabric at this class is firm to pull on, and a donning glove gives a better grip.

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. Compression hosiery may not be suitable for everyone. If you have diabetes, circulation problems, reduced sensation, fragile skin, heart failure or a diagnosed vascular condition, speak to a healthcare professional before using compression.
