hi - I'm 5'5" and 112 lbs with proportionally bigger legs. Also, looking for vein support. Will these help - and what size? Thanks!

Hi these tights will help you for vein support and I think you should order a small size because of you height. I'm 5'4" and 100lbs and the XS was the right size for me but for your height a small will be ok for you

You might want to go to their size breakdown. These are compression tights. They are for running so muscle and joint support. No idea about veins. I am 5' 3" 109-110 lbs and wear XS.

I got these for my daughter who is on a track team. She is 5'6" and about 140 lb with about 17% body fat and the bulk of her wt. in her legs. I got her size medium - they fit her great. She loves these tights. So, my best guess would be for you - a size small. I do not know about vein support, but I do know that the design is for specific muscle support.

Im 53" and 112lbs and bought the XS which fit perfectly. Probably you should go for a S due to bigger/longer legs. Best if you consult the size chart on the web page.

Hi- I am 5'7" and weigh approx 130-ish, my hips are 36" and thighs at the widest are 20". While the tights take a bit of an effort to get into, they are comfortable once on. I am really glad that I ordered the medium size- as a small would have been to tight for me. I honestly do not know how they will work for your vein support, but can tell you that I am very impressed with the general leg and knee support when I run or snowboard. Overall, I am very happy with the tights and am considering getting a 3/4 length pair for the summer.

I can't speak to the vein support but I can definitely recommend that you use the sizing chart on CW-X. Their recommendation for me was a S and while I would normally have just figured myself a medium I went by the chart. So glad I did! The tights fit perfectly (that is - tightly!) and offer great support for my knees and lower back.

David, I ordered the size according to the height and weight chart and they ended up being too snug and actually ran so I returned them. Unfortunately, I can not answer the benefits of wearing these hose. My intention was for circulation support and not cramping. In the future, I would probably order Jobst brand.

I got mine 6 weeks ago, last week the Velcro started losing its stickiness. I tried a fabric shaver but with no luck. Keep in mind, I have large legs and strap the strap to the front of the braces because of that; if they fit around my legs as proper braces for my legs would, I am sure the Velcro would be holding up nicely as it seems high quality. Short answer: if these are appropriate for your leg size, they will be fine; if not, you my want to find more appropriate ones

They are one size fits all pretty much... They should look fine might just go up a little higher on the leg. Enjoy!

My thigh is large dand I've had no problem with XL, which is what I have. OK? I'm 5'10 and at 296lbs t would seem we have the same circumference. Not bad for a 7 footer(heh)zit stays put, gives warmth and is easy on/off. Don't go to any smaller ones, too much pressure in one jplace.

the ones I got and had to return ran very small for their size. I would say go up one or even two sizes... but they also run more toward lean kid... if got any kinda size that's not thin, you might have a problem... going up in size to fit body will prob make legs long....

Hi Karen, I went to the store and bought the first pair. They measured my legs and gave me one of about 5 sizes that these come in. I then went to amazon and bought two pair at almost half the price that I paid at the store. I have found these stockings to be comfortable and have noted that they do not roll down or crease much if at all. I think if you follow the sizing chart correctly you should be happy with them. I cannot say that my calves are unduly large, but I started wearing these after vericose vein surgery last year, I am still wearing them. Please feel free to contact me if I can be of any other help.

I can't say for sure. I wear them because I have leg pain. I'm not sure if its from poor circulation or not, but they help tremendously. I would recommend you try them, it may help in your situation. I will say they run a little tight, so you might have to go one size up. Good luck!

The question cracks me up because here I am in a leg cast...anyway, back to how firm it is. It is just about perfect if you are looking to elevate legs in a cast, or if you have circulation issues. Would be great for people with varicose veins. There is minimal give; enough to put your legs on it and not have them roll, but enough firmness to make them remain elevated. I am a 5 foot 9 inch tall woman and it is just what I needed. I would not get w/out a cover as the material gets easily frayed. We had an old laundry bag and that worked perfectly as a cover so we didn't need to purchase one. The question cracks me up because here I am in a leg cast...anyway, back to how firm it is.

I'm on my feet 8 hours a day in a pharmacy and they keep my legs from getting tired and my ankles from swelling just like the ones my cardiologist prescribed. I showed them to her and she ok'd them. I'm a larger woman and they fit me very well. (felt I needed to add that after reading the other answers)

I've used a single set of these for well over a year and I'm 5'11" 300 pounds. As an amputee, I'm using them often. They hold up extremely well.

they are not one size fits all. I went to a medical supply store and they will measure your leg for the correct size.I started buying thru Amazon after i knew my size because they are much lower the medical supply store.

My legs are average to slightly smaller size. I am 5' 4" and weigh 145 lbs. Small size would have been ok but, I do not find tight fitting socks or stockings comfortable. I chose medium and they were perfect. When I first put them on they seemed a little stiff and thick but in a short time I realized they were so comfortable that I did not notice that I was wearing them. They were just as comfortable after my 14 hour flight. Hope this helps.

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.

Small would be just fine for you. I did not think these were too short. They are very comfortable and I plan on buying another color or too in the future. When I bought these I was 122 pounds and I am still 5'2. I think you will be very pleased with these. I certainly hope so.
