The Oroblú REPOS 70 are support tights with a matt 70 DEN finish and medium compression of 10/15 mmHg. They are ideal for anyone who frequently travels by plane, stands for long hours, or has a sedentary desk job. The graduated pressure improves blood return in the veins, boosts oxygen supply and actively counteracts the feeling of heavy, tired legs throughout the day. Support features Medium compression (10/15 mmHg): Graduated support from toe to panty section — firm at the ankle, lighter at the thigh. Promotes circulation without feeling restrictive. Full-cover elastane: Unlike cheaper support tights, the REPOS 70 coats the elastane core entirely with polyamide. This eliminates the "pinching" sensation of bare elastane rubbing against the skin — exceptional comfort all day. Elasticated non-slip waistband: Designed to stay in place without rolling down or cutting in. Wide and flat for a smooth look under clothing. Seamless panty section with cotton gusset: Flatlock seams prevent chafing, the cotton gusset ensures breathability. Matt, silk-like finish: An elegant, office-appropriate look that disguises the medical-grade support underneath. Available in black and natural tones. When to wear support tights Support tights are not only for medical use — they are a daily comfort upgrade for anyone on their feet. Wear them for long-haul flights, full days at a standing desk, or whenever your legs feel heavy after a long day. The REPOS 70 is Oroblú's best-seller in the support category for good reason: it combines genuine compression with the look of a regular matt tight. Care and alternatives Hand-wash at 30°C or machine-wash in a mesh bag on a gentle cycle. Avoid tumble drying. For stronger compression, explore our medical-grade compression tights.

Women's Compression Hosiery – Support Tights and Stockings
Give your legs the support they deserve with our compression and support hosiery. Designed with graduated pressure that is strongest at the ankle and decreases upward, these tights, stockings and knee-highs promote healthy blood circulation, reduce swelling and help prevent tired, heavy legs. Whether you need light everyday support or medically certified compression, our range has the right level for your needs.
Support hosiery by type
- Compression tights: Full-length support from waist to toe. Available in sheer, semi-opaque and opaque finishes that look like regular tights while delivering therapeutic pressure.
- Compression stockings: Thigh-high support in hold-up or suspender styles. Ideal if you prefer the freedom of stockings over full tights.
- Compression knee-highs: Targeted support for the lower leg. The most popular choice for office workers, travellers and anyone who spends long hours on their feet.
- Support socks: Everyday socks with gentle compression for daily comfort and circulation support.
- Support leggings: Compression in a casual, trouser-like fit. Perfect for active lifestyles, travel and loungewear.
Understanding compression levels
Support hosiery comes in different pressure classes, measured in mmHg (millimetres of mercury). Light support (10–15 mmHg) is ideal for prevention – long flights, desk jobs or first signs of tired legs. Medium support (15–20 mmHg) helps with mild swelling, varicose veins and pregnancy-related leg discomfort. Higher compression classes (20 mmHg+) are medically certified and best chosen in consultation with your doctor.
Even within the same compression class, fit varies between brands. Measure your ankle and calf circumference and compare with the brand’s size chart. A well-fitting compression garment should feel snug but never painful – the pressure should be firm at the ankle and gradually ease as it moves up the leg.
Who benefits from support hosiery
Compression is not just for medical conditions. Office workers, nurses, teachers, flight attendants and anyone who stands or sits for extended periods benefit from the improved circulation and reduced fatigue. Pregnant women often find light compression tights relieve heavy legs and mild swelling. Athletes use compression for faster recovery after training.

Frequently Asked Questions
Stützstrumpfhosen bieten eine leichte bis mittlere Kompression und sind frei verkäuflich. Sie eignen sich zur Vorbeugung und bei leichten Beschwerden wie müden Beinen. Compressana CALYPSO 40 und 140 DEN sind typische Vertreter.
Kompressionsstrümpfe der Klasse I–IV sind medizinische Hilfsmittel, die vom Arzt verordnet und individuell angepasst werden. Sie haben einen deutlich stärkeren Druckverlauf. Unsere Stützstrumpfhosen ersetzen keine ärztlich verordneten Kompressionsstrümpfe.
Stützstrumpfhosen sind besonders sinnvoll für:
- Stehberufe: Pflege, Verkauf, Gastronomie, Friseurhandwerk – wer täglich stundenlang steht.
- Sitzberufe: Büro, Homeoffice, LKW-Fahrer – langes Sitzen belastet die Venen ebenfalls.
- Reisen: Langstreckenflüge und lange Autofahrten – Kunert Fly & Care wurden dafür entwickelt.
- Schwangerschaft: Entlastet die durch Gewichtszunahme belasteten Beine.
- Venenerkrankungen: Zur Unterstützung bei leichten Venenproblemen (bei schweren Problemen zum Arzt!).
Stützstrumpfhosen brauchen sorgfältige Pflege, damit die Kompression erhalten bleibt: Bei maximal 30 °C im Wäschenetz waschen. Feinwaschmittel verwenden, keinen Weichspüler – er zerstört die elastischen Fasern. Nicht in den Trockner geben. Flach auslegen zum Trocknen. Tipp: Besitze mindestens 2 Paar und trage sie im Wechsel – so kann sich das Material zwischen den Tragetagen erholen und die Kompression hält länger. Nach etwa 6 Monaten täglichem Tragen lässt die Stützwirkung spürbar nach.
Unser Sortiment umfasst sechs Produkttypen:
- Strumpfhosen: Stützstrumpfhosen von 40 bis 140 DEN mit abgestufter Kompression.
- Strümpfe: Halterlose und Strapsstrümpfe mit Stützwirkung.
- Kniestrümpfe: Kompression im Unterschenkelbereich – dezent unter Hosen tragbar.
- Socken: Druckentlastende Socken für empfindliche Füße.
- Höschen: Formende Unterwäsche.
- Leggings: Blickdichte Modelle mit Stützfunktion.
Vier Marken decken unser Funktion-&-Medica-Sortiment ab: Compressana ist der Spezialist – mit Stützstrumpfhosen, Kniestrümpfen und Queen-Size-Modellen. Die CALYPSO-Serie (40–140 DEN) ist das Herzstück. Kunert bietet Fly & Care Reisestrümpfe mit leichter Kompression. Glamory deckt große Größen ab (bis 62). Giulia ergänzt mit Komfortmodellen mit Baumwollanteil.
Ja. Compressana bietet die CALYPSO 140 DEN in einer Queen Size Variante für kräftigere Beine. Glamory hat Stützmodelle bis Größe 62 (4XL). Gerade bei größeren Größen ist Stützwirkung besonders wichtig, da das höhere Körpergewicht die Venen zusätzlich belastet. Weitere Plus-Size-Modelle findest du in unserer Plus-Size-Kategorie.
Funktionsstrumpfwaren sind Strumpfprodukte mit einem medizinischen oder gesundheitlichen Zusatznutzen. Dazu gehören Stützstrumpfhosen mit abgestufter Kompression, Kompressionsstrümpfe für die Venengesundheit, Kniestrümpfe mit Stützwirkung und Socken mit Druckentlastung. Im Gegensatz zu normalen Strumpfhosen haben Funktionsmodelle einen messbaren Druckverlauf: am Knöchel am stärksten, nach oben abnehmend. Das fördert den venösen Rückfluss und entlastet müde, schwere Beine.
