Moderate Compression Core-Spun Thigh High Socks Moderate Compression Core-Spun Thigh High Support Socks Designed to be easily slipped on, Core-Spun by Therafirm moderate compression thigh high support socks’s soft, ultra stretchy fibers ensure these compression socks are easier to put on and more comfortable to wear. Similar to Core-Spun casual support knee socks, Core-Spun Thigh Highs are full length gradient compression garments that help to improve circulation, prevent moderate swelling, and relieve tired, achy legs and feet. Gradient Compression True gradient compression stockings improve blood flow. Core-Spun by Therafirm Support Socks are designed to deliver a controlled amount of pressure which is greatest at the ankle of the garment and gradually decreases toward the top of the stocking. This gradient pressure promotes better circulation and helps to control swelling and leg fatigue. Core-Spun Yarns Core-Spun yarns are made by twisting fibers around an inner fiber, creating one yarn. This process is used to enhance strength, durability and stretch comfort. Core-Spun Support Socks, an innovation by Therafirm, consist of spandex as the “core yarn” with moisture wicking yarns as the “sheath” of twisted yarns around the elongated core. The result is a support sock that is ultra-stretchy, easier to put on, and more comfortable to wear. Who Should Wear Support Socks?
