Description
Although often thought of as purely for people with circulation issues, increasing evidence shows that there could be health benefits in routinely wearing graduated compression socks all day and every day – particularly when those socks are Milkteds® Everyday Compression Socks. Unlike other compression socks, Milkteds® offers a set of unique innovations, including the use of pure milk fibre yarn, a 3D knit design and micro massage technology woven into the sole of the foot all providing a previously unattainable level of luxury in compression.Milkteds® are designed by a UK doctor who saw the need for a better compression sock, and manufactured to the very highest standards in Italy using fibres actually made from milk protein, and containing natural amino acids to actively nourish and care for skin. The soft, glossy-looking milk fibre fabric is antibacterial, anti-fungal and hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs and evaporates moisture, helping keep legs and feet dry and free from irritation.Wearing Milkteds® graduated compression helps to boost circulation and increase blood flow through the veins in your legs, which could help prevent unsightly thread veins and varicose veins developing for people who spend extended periods sitting or standing. Wearing them can leave legs feeling more energised at the end of a hard day’s work. Again, unlike most compression socks, Milkteds® are easy to pull on and off without having to put in special efforts. While seated, roll each sock on, with your thumbs inside, working progressively up the foot, pulling upward past the ankle, and towards the knee. Milkteds® can even be worn over the knee if you choose to.Milkteds® Everyday Compression Socks are available in a range of colours, all working silently in the background to keep your feet, ankles and legs invigorated. They offer graduated compression to 18-22 mm Hg, British Standard Class II. Milkteds® Everyday Compression Socks have stay-put, non-restricting cuffs and hand linked toes for smooth seams, along with reinforced toes and heels.As for maintenance, Milkteds® benefit from regular washing, as it helps restore the elasticity and the compression factor, prolonging the lifespan of this luxury milk-fibre. Milkteds® should be hand washed, in a wash bag and in cold water, using a gentle soap, or machine washed at no higher than a 30° gentle wash cycle and using mild detergent. Air dry or use a low heat in a tumble dryer. Avoid using fabric conditioners and bleach, and do not iron or dry clean.Milkteds® recommend that ideally, compression socks should be replaced after three months of regular use, or six months of occasional use, to maintain the correct level of compression.(04/15)
