Very soft, stretch is perfect
Love this tubing. I got it for my senior shepherd, who has to wear a boot to keep from scraping his claws and back paws till they're bloody because he drags them. I cut a long piece and fold it over on the end to form a sock and it works great. I also use it to protect his front paw from skin irritation when I put a brace on to support his wrist joint from hyperextending. And I use it on my own wrist when I wear a brace. It's super comfy and I think stretches just the right amount.

I did a better job than the actual Doctor go figure...
I purchased this product to apply a synthetic cast to a friend's hand. She punched a wall which resulted in her having a boxers fracture to her pinky knuckle. The photos show the plaster cast that was put on by an actual doctor at a nearby Urgent Care Clinic (too bad I can't review his work on Amazon lol) and the second pic is the synthetic cast I applied for her. No I am NOT a doctor, nurse, physicians assistant or any type of medical professional. Just someone that knows how to watch a YouTube video and wanted to help a friend out.Back to the product (sorry)... Anyway, this cast stocking was perfect. It wasn't too flexible but flexible enough as to not put too much pressure on the hand while casted. I chose to use some organic moleskin attached to the cotton undercast padding and wrap that around her bare skin first before applying the cast stocking over her hand. I did this to have a way to draw any moister that may get into the cast and/or between it and her hand away from her skin and reduce the potential for a fungal or bacterial infection on/in the skin. The cast stocking still fit nicely and not to snug over her hand even with the Undercast padding and moleskin.I'm sure this stuff has many other useful purposes but I used it for its intended purpose and was please with its quality and ease of use. My only suggestion would be that the box have a way to allow the cast stocking to be pulled out and cut without having to remove the entire roll.In closing I want to say that I do not recommend other ppl trying this. I had her sign a statement that I did not charge her to cast her hand and that if anything went wrong she would not sue me or hold me accountable in any way. She's a close friend and honestly, I don't think anyone could've done a worse job than the doctor at the urgent care clinic did. Yes his is the PLASTER cast and mine was the blue fiberglass cast.

Excellent. Just what my broken hand needed. A great price, compared to local.

The Actual Measurements
This Medline #4 tubular covering comes in a giant roll, 4 inches wide before cutting. The circumference of my leg below the knee, i.e. the calf, is 13 inches. On my calf, the tube is neither loose enough to fall off, nor tight enough to remain secure, i.e. no elasticity whatever. if you stretch it out it stays stretched. Assuming it was cotton, I tried to shrink it in the dryer, but it's polyester and it didn't. So I'll have to cut a section lengthwise as it if were a piece of gauze, stretch it around my leg and secure it with that white medical adhesive tape. Incidentally, that medical tape is so sticky you can hardly get it off, and is incredibly versatile for securing or repairing anything made of cloth. I also bought some real elastic tubular netting to secure wounds, but I wanted the cloth type, so I can also use both together.• • • UPDATE: Experience shows this tubular T-shirt material is even better than gauze (speaking as a user, not a medical professional). Laterally it stretches up to 21 inches, without fraying or tearing, and works perfectly with that grippy medical tape. I'm very happy that my ignorance became a great discovery.

Midline Tubular Stockinettes are versatile and of good quality
purchased the Medline Non-Sterile Tubular Stockinettes to cover my pet's surgery area on his neck, as the hospital only sent one home for post-surgery care. Fortunately, they no longer send pets home with cones, which is a positive change. Although I didn’t need such a large bundle, I bought it anyway because I needed to change his stockinette regularly. It worked perfectly for this purpose.Additionally, I was advised to apply a warm compress if his incision area swelled. When it did, I bought hot/cold compresses from Amazon. Initially, I used a washcloth between his tender skin and the compress, but it kept falling off. The Tubular Stockinette worked perfectly as a cover, functioning like a pillowcase around the compress.I didn’t realize how versatile these stockinettes are until now. Initially, I bought them to cover my pet’s neck after surgery to keep the wound clean and prevent him from scratching. I knew they could be useful in my first aid kit for covering arms, casts, wounds, etc. However, I discovered they also work wonderfully as covers for hot/cold compresses when used on sensitive skin.Overall, these stockinettes have proven to be incredibly handy and versatile and of good quality. I’m very pleased with this purchase.

good value but could have better packaging!
The product is good for the price and the amount you get but the box was partly opened when I got the item and inside the first layers of roll had a bit of dust/dirt or stains.

After Ankle Fusion Surgery - Perfect for use under Orthopedic Boot
After Ankle Fusion surgery, this was perfect. Tried other products ….all had way too much compression and stretch. This was perfect. It is 89% cotton, so very cool next to skin. I use a long length, fold top over to keep toes covered, and have a few inches at the top folded over.Washes extremely well.
