Bioflect® Capri Compression Leggings with Bioactive Fibers and Raised Massaging Knit for Support and Comfort

More comfortable for those of us with Lipedema. Easier to put on.

These fit perfectly, and the wavy texture feels so good! I'm 5'6" and they hit me at mid-calf. They're also a lot less difficult to put on than compression hose. I wanted compression to my calf because I have some mild vein issues and lipedema from the knees up that I don't want getting any worse. These put pep in my step without requiring 15 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous exercise to don. They're also very sturdy and breathable. Not for outerwear, folks - the seams make it clear they are an undergarment - so opacity (or lack thereof) is not an issue. N.b.: these are not good for people who get swelling in their feet. If you try to wear them, you risk fluid backing up below the calf. Kind of the opposite of what you want in a compression garment. Oh, I will add that they are very high waisted and might compress you a little tighter around the abdomen than is comfortable, esp. when you sit down, because they can roll. I find that I can fix this with a little adjustment.

I had tried other brands of compression leggings- only to break out in a sweat trying to get them on, followed by being miserable wearing them, having them get a snag on day one, and seeing no difference in how I felt or looked. An OT suggested trying these as an affordable alternative to the brand they order (for patients with better insurance.) I bought a pair months ago and have gradually been purchasing more because I am very satisfied with them. I find all of my Bioflect garments to hold up very well in the laundry (washed on cold in a mesh laundry bag and then hang to drip dry.) One pair did accidentally go through the dryer once, but they survived. I have not had any issues with seams tearing so far- but my oldest pair are only five months old. They fit comfortably and they are a whole lot easier to get on than any other compression legging I have tried. I wear them to help with my lipedema/lymphedema and find they are making a difference in terms of helping move the fluid. I needed to order one size down after a month of regular wear and I was delighted to rediscover I have ankles. They do have a bumpy weave, so probably wouldn't be appropriate for under a skin-tight "body con" style dress, but I wear them under all my clothes (dresses, jeans, dress pants). I am at the point now where I am uncomfortable if I am NOT wearing them. I have not experienced the waist band rolling down. Very pleased and will purchase more when these wear out.

I got these on the recommendation of my lymphedema therapist. The sizing chart showed that I could either get a medium or a large, so I went with the large. Even so, I had a lot of trouble getting them on. They did make me look noticeably slimmer. My pants felt almost too big. After the second washing, they were slightly easier to get on. Washing also made them less scratchy on my very sensitive skin.

I battle Lymphedema and Lipedema and I will not wear anything other than Bioflect garments. I absolutely loooooove them. The quality of the material is second to none. They are the most comfortable compression garment I have ever worn, and like I previously stated, I will not wear any other brand of compression....they are my go-to and I depend on them daily to keep me mobile and functional for myself as well as my family. I would also like to share that I buy the Capri length because it gives full leg coverage for us shorter ladies and it helps us save a few dollars too, lol. I have gone from wearing a 4XL to currently wearing an XL....I'm sooo proud of myself and the journey that I have been on and Bioflect has been with me every step of the way.

I love this brand and own multiple pairs, but the capri model fits completely differently than the others. There is no compression at all in my usual size. I missed the return window, so I'm stuck having to order another one a size down.

I want to review these higher, and I am thankful for the help when I do wear them. I have to rank them a one as I have had them just over a month and I wear them maybe 3 days out of the week as I rotate with other compression leggings. And just like the other bioflect pair I have, they have ripped at the seam in the backside. I wash gentle and hang dry. I just am really sad as I missed the return date by 4 days and they are so expensive just to by a third pair that likely will not last 2 months.

I received these today and put them on immediately. As a person with very intense chemical sensitivities, I was worried about the chemical smell noted in numerous reviews, but there was no notable smell to the pair I received. I normally wash anything new after trying it on but before wearing, but I didn't this time. I tried them on... and they are still on! I am so impressed with them that I am writing this review just one hour later. The benefits derived from these leggings were noticeable literally as soon as I put them on my body. I had to keep sitting down because my legs were feeling like they were in constant motion and it was a foreign sensation to me! I can feel them working; moving lymph fluid up, up, up to where it needs to go for drainage. The fit is very comfortable... very tight, but I don't feel like I am being strangled, which is how I felt in other leggings I've tried. They almost come up to my bra line and are not too restrictive for my ribs to be comfortable, which has been the biggest problem for me in other brands. With that said, I am not overweight and if I was, that could possibly be an issue. I am a former ballet dancer and even at 64 years old, my calves are still well developed. These capris come to the thickest part of my calf, making them cut in too much there. I folded them up an inch and that resolved the issue. I typically wear athletic (low) compression leggings most of the time... literally like 95% of the time, and sliding those over these have added slightly to the compression value while maintaining my fashion aesthetic, all while enjoying the benefits that these capris offer. Another surprising element to this order was how quickly they arrived. I was given a delivery date of more than two weeks from the date of order, but they arrived in just two days. I am one happy camper and have just ordered the shorts and ankle length leggings.

Delivery was terrible and cost was $188.00 Canadian. Way to small.

I would like an exchange please. Broke the first day that my wife try

As a regular users of Bioflect compression wear we have found them as a very effective in managing our conditions. They are easy to put on and wear for long hours of the day, especially compared to some alternatives. However I did notice that this pair were a smaller fit than I normally would wear, so you may need to order a larger size.

Fit and feel great!!
