Tips for putting the stockings on
Put on the stockings first thing in the morning after getting up, as long as your legs are
free from swelling. Please do not pull the compression stockings up by the edge or the
grip top, instead, slide it upwards with your hands. We recommend wearing household
rubber gloves to make it easier to put on the stockings and to protect the knitted fab-
ric. Jewellery and long fingernails can damage the stockings. Please also pay attention
to regular foot care and proper footwear. Ask your medical retailer about Ofa Grip spe-
cial gloves and Ofa Fit Magnide, the practical dressing aid for compression stockings
from Ofa Bamberg, available with open and closed toe. Ofa Fit Magnide is made of
very smooth canvas material and enables the stockings to slide easily over the foot.
Otherwise, the adhesive strength of the grip tops
could be permanently impaired (leg hair and dry
skin can also limit the function of the grip tops).
Store the stockings in a dry place away from sun
and heat, in the original packaging if possible.
Wash inside out and do not use
fabric softener!
Wash on a delicate or gentle cycle
Do not bleach
Dry gently and carefully
Do not iron
No chemical dry cleaning
Material composition
Polyamide (Polyamid), elastane (Elas-
tan) and, for some products, cotton
(Baumwolle) is used. Please refer to
the textile label sewn into your stock-
ing for the precise details.
To put the stockings on, turn
it inside out as far as the foot.
Slip the foot section over your
toes and then over the instep.
Now carefully pull the leg
section over your heel. Please
avoid pulling up the stockings
at the end or grip top.
Pull the rest of the stockings up
evenly without overstretching it.
Finally, adjust the stockings on
the leg until there are
no wrinkles.

Putting on your open toe com-
pression stockings is much
easier with the supplied Ofa
dressing aid. Slip your foot
into the dressing aid so that it
reaches just above the heel.
Now pull the stockings on
until the heel is in the right
place. This is very easy with
the Ofa dressing aid.
To take out the dressing aid,
pull back the forefoot section
of the stockings.
Pull the dressing aid out over
the tip of your toes.
Then carefully roll back the
forefoot section of the stock-
ings again. Then pull the rest of
the stockings up evenly with-
out overstretching it. Finally,
adjust the stockings on the leg
until there are no wrinkles.
