What level of compression does this offer? Medical grade is 20-30 mm/Hg is this possible with shirts and tights?

Its not medical grade. The fit starts fairly snug but loosens up after a few washes and wears

No I don't believe it compresses that well but it's a good fit if you get your size correctly

Well, it depends on what your doing and how much you sweat. I get hot and perspire. I don't think I've worn my compression thigh high and sweat really bad. I do know that water will remove that adhesive from my leg. It would also depend on what compression you wear. I wear 30 to 40. It does make me hot. Best advice. Just get it and try. Hope this helps. If you sweat a little, I se no problem.

I have 2 compression tubes on my knee strap. I have IT Band syndrome and it does help, but than my single one helps also.

I'm not sure where you live, but I wear these in Phoenix, Arizona (in the winter there) and Idaho in the summer. I've used them in 90 degree heat, and worn them under a Nuu-Muu running dress, and have been perfectly comfortable. I usually get quite a few compliments on the set up! PS...I just purchased my 3rd pair of these compression tights! I love them and simply would not go back to the regular running tights I was wearing before. If you haven't worn these before, remember that they are SUPPOSED to be tight...that is the purpose of the compression! Hope that helps!

according to http://www.compressionstockings.com the Zensah Ultra Compression Leg Sleeves are 20-30mmHg

Yes they are but not the kind of compression that requires 2 people to put on & off. I bought large just becaue I didn't want to deal with that & these really fit the bill, they give support, they give relief & best of all I can actually put them on myself & they don't cut off circulation @ the knee cap. I love them, they are not PRETTY, but they do the job & I would never take a long trip by car or plane without wearing them & they don't make your skin sweat or itch. Highly recommend

The socks I purchased are not Zip Socks; however compression level is the amount of tension in the sock in various areas to give your feet and legs support keeping them from swelling. The standardized level of compression used as follows: 15-20, 20-30 , 30-40 and 40-50 mmHg.

I'm not sure; they are smaller than you would think, though, so if you really don't like the thought of a super-tight compression sleeve, I might go up a size from what you think your size is.

Hello-Thank you for your question. Before I answer your question please let me recommend a different machine to you. Please see the link below:Gradient Sequential Compression Therapy - Full Leg Complete SetWe do not recommend to you the Doctor Life LX7 pump. Unfortunately, it has had many problems. As for the sleeve size, a regular size sleeve will be find to use. Thank you,Cristina

Compression as in tight sticking to your body and showing every parcel of your body. Thanks for asking.

I can only guess, because the compression is not given anywhere online or with the socks. They feel like a 20-30 compression to me... that's the best I can tell you.

If one has varicose veins, a doctor's prescription for support docks is advisable. A friend of my loves them, my experience with them wasn't great- had to return them. Your physician will tell you what compression is needed in your situation Andorra often than not, Amazon will have them, or your local medical supplier. Hope this helps.

I have both, and I prefer the ultra. The regular barely feels like any compression. It's much more comfortable, but it doesn't make a big difference for me. I should mention I use them primarily because I have low blood pressure, instead of solely athletic reasons. The Ultra makes a big difference, and the regular maybe makes a slight difference, but really just feels like I'm wearing snug leg warmers. I agree with the first reviewer though, the top band of the ultra does bind.

I had the same question, but I was able to find it on the Shock Doctor website. https://www.shockdoctor.com/knee-compression-sleeve S 12.25-13.25 M 13-14 L 13.75-14.75 XL 14.5-15.5 XXL 15.25-16.25

The 2XU running socks are compression socks with a compression of 30. I have had blood clots in the past & need the 30 compression. I don't know the compression rate of the recovery sock. Sorry. If you need 30 compression go with the running sock, or check with your doctor. He/she should be able to tell you.
