Essential Opaque for Women 30-40mmHg w/Grip Top

Why Choose Sigvaris Essential Opaque Thigh High 30–40 mmHg with Grip Top

Thigh-high compression at 30–40 mmHg is prescribed when venous conditions extend above the knee and lower compression classes or shorter formats have proven insufficient. The Essential Opaque line delivers this in the most clinically practical thigh-high format: durable opaque nylon/spandex knit that maintains compression integrity through the frequent daily laundering that extra-firm compression requires, Sensinnov® grip-top band that holds the stocking at the correct thigh position without rolling or creating a constriction band, and an opaque finish that conceals varicosities, post-surgical discolouration, and skin changes while providing a professional, non-clinical appearance for daily wear. The grip-top format eliminates the need for garter belt or waist attachment systems — the sole retention mechanism is the thigh band, which Sensinnov® technology holds reliably during daily movement, sitting, and standing activity. Multiple size configurations — Short and Long lengths across multiple circumference ranges — provide the accurate fitting that extra-firm thigh-high compression requires. Size and length accuracy is non-negotiable at this compression level; incorrect sizing at 30–40 mmHg creates either ineffective therapy or harmful pressure concentration. Prescription required — confirm size, length, and toe style by exact SKU.

Usage & Care

Don stockings in the morning before rising — 30–40 mmHg requires application when oedema is at minimum. Use a donning glove; extra-firm thigh-high demands controlled application technique. Smooth evenly from ankle to grip-top with no bunching or folding. Confirm Sensinnov® grip-top sits flat at the thigh. Machine wash on gentle cycle in cool water with mild detergent; hang or lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry, bleach, or iron. Replace every 4–6 months or when compression or elasticity diminishes. 30–40 mmHg requires prescription — confirm correct size and length with accurate thigh circumference, calf circumference, and leg length measurements before dispensing.
