Choose your stocking style
For thigh highs and pantyhose: We highly recommend using the gloves provided to help protect the fabric and avoid damage.
Turn the stocking inside out
Reach inside, hold the heel, and turn the upper portion inside out while leaving the foot section ready.
Position the foot and heel
Slide your foot in gently and make sure the heel is seated correctly before moving upward.
Work upward gradually
Use both hands to ease the fabric up the leg in small sections. Avoid pulling hard on the top band.
Smooth—not roll
Smooth wrinkles and make sure the garment lies flat. Never leave the top folded or rolled.
Check your comfort
The stocking should feel firm and even. Stop and contact a healthcare professional if you experience pain, numbness, or unusual colour changes.
Helpful habits
- Remove rings and be careful with long or sharp nails.
- Consider application gloves or a donning aid if gripping or bending is difficult.
- Follow the washing instructions supplied with your garment and allow it to air dry.
- Contact us if the stocking slides, bunches, pinches, or feels different from your usual fit.
