Knee-High & Over-Knee
From classic knee-highs to compression socks thigh high, this is full-length comfort - gentle support from ankle to well above the calf.
About our knee-high & over-knee
Length matters with compression. Knee-high is the classic for a reason - support the whole calf and you have covered the muscles doing most of the standing, flying and running work. But sometimes you want more leg in the game, which is where compression socks thigh high and over-knee styles come in: the same gentle, graduated squeeze carried further up, with soft silicone-free grip tops that stay put without pinching. Over knee compression socks are a favourite for travel and for anyone who feels the cold, while compression socks above knee length work brilliantly under skirts, dresses and winter layers. Every length in this collection starts snuggest at the ankle and eases as it rises, so compression socks over the knee feel supportive rather than restrictive. Sizes run to wide-calf and plus-size, with free UK delivery over £20 and our 100% money-back guarantee as standard.
Knee-High & Over-Knee - FAQs
Knee-high or over-knee - how do I choose?
Knee-high covers the calf and suits most people most days. Go over-knee or thigh high if you want warmth and coverage further up the leg, or simply prefer the feel.
Will over-knee styles stay up?
Yes - they use soft, wide grip tops that hold with gentle friction rather than tight elastic, so they stay put without leaving deep marks.
Where should a knee-high actually sit?
Around two finger-widths below the crease of your knee. If it sits higher it can fold and feel tight, so size up if you are between sizes.
