Is it okay to wash and dry my compression garments?
Without daily machine laundering, your garment is more likely to stretch out, over time. All Juzo garments can be machine-washed and machine- dried on a low-heat setting. It is recommended that you use a mild detergent without bleach or fabric softener.
Latex Free- Juzo only uses Lycra® compression fibers. Lycra® does not breakdown from heat and is the highest quality synthetic compression fiber.
FiberSoft™ – Our Lycra® compression fibers are covered. This protects the garment and increases garment durability.
Can I wear my compression garment at night?
No. Elastic garments are not normally worn at night while sleeping because they might bunch up and cause a tourniquet. However, you should consult your physician and follow their recommendations.
When should I wear my compression garments?
In general, graduated compression stockings should only be worn during the day while you are upright and mobile, and should be taken off and washed at night. Consult your primary care provider for specific instructions. If you need to wear your garment every day, you may want to consider purchasing a second pair so you will always have one pair to wear while the other is being washed.

Graduated compression stockings are manufactured in compression ranges: 12-20mmHg, 20-30mmHg, 30-40mmHg, 40-50mmHg, and 50+mmHg. Graduated compression means that in the stockings, the greatest compression begins at the ankle and decreases up the leg. For arm sleeves, the greatest compression begins at the wrist and decreases up the arm.

What is your return policy?
Returns will be accepted due to manufacturer defects for 30 days. Returns are made by scheduled drop off, vendors will be contacted and garment exchanged or repaired by vendor. Every effort will be made to ensure customers will be provided with an alternative garment as soon as one can be obtained. Returns cannot be made of garments that have already been worn and are not defective.
Note that compression garments are supposed to maintain compressive forces for 6 months. After that time a decreased in function is expected and garment has met its full efficacy life expectancy. This is not a default of the manufacturer and not grounds for replacement.
