I've been wearing leg compression for quite a long time now, and thought it might be time to share what has worked for me. Its' a bit long winded, so I'll put the details in a link that I will update as I learn more.
Short version: custom prescription compression rules, if it is fitted by the right person.
In tights of Zoots, Sugoi, Skins, 2XU: Zoots have the best compression, but are a bit annoying. Sugoi and Skins are easy to wear and have noticeable compression.
In sleeves/socks of Zoots, Zensah, Skins, CEP and Sugoi: I like Zensah and CEP best and won't wear out the Skins.
I'm an active guinea pig for these, so I'll try any suggestions.
Here's the link
