A lot like these ones: https://www.jobststockings.com/products/jobst-relief-knee-high-30-40?variant=43830082535645
Very difficult to get off and on, won't lie, but they're so good once they're on!
Yep, I had those, too! Really good compression. I like these new ones, though, because you don't have to deal with the Velcro and yet you get amazing compression from them. It feels...normal? I guess, that's not really the word I'm looking for, but you get so used to it, where the Velcro was a constant reminder to me.![]()
