#compression garments

I don't wear them myself so I can't recommend any but I'm putting this out to the community (and I'll reblog on @disabilityaidpositivity as well to hopefully get you some answers).

I also found these articles:

Immediate positive note was how quickly they were delivered, by the next morning. They came in a resealable plastic bag and a paper receipt of my order which had a note from the shipper that said “keep ruling!” which I thought was a sweet touch.

#1: the package #2: the socks #3: the stitching

Now, I was apprehensive about getting these because I wear a size 4-4 1/2 in women’s/kids. Many compression socks I’ve seen don’t work well under a size 5-6.

They are marketed as autism and sensory friendly. They do not have a feel-able seem or texture from the decal on the sole of the foot or the stitching on the top. They fit snugly around my foot itself and calf, don’t fall down, and don’t pinch or irritate my skin or leg hair as normal socks do. They are incredibly soft and thick but breathable. I could wear these comfortably for hours in shoes.

what they look like on

The only thing I worry about is how well the stitching holds up to wear & tear and washing.
