It has a silicone band that prevents the sock from slipping. The toe is open and flat, which offers greater comfort when wearing it. It is suggested that the sock is put on in the opposite direction, placing the heel in position first and gradually pulling it up. The silicone band can be moistened to increase leg support. It is not recommended to use creams or oils before putting on the stocking, because they contain agents that can deteriorate the elastic fibres.
