I was prescribed black stockings by the clinic, as I previously would have worn black or other dark leg coverings. Some receptionists and pharmacy assistants have looked surprised at my requests.

Are you in the UK - or perhaps in America? Very difficult to get coloured compressions here in England.

App8440 is in the UK. Beige is the standard colour of the knee high compression socks I get, made to measure, I always choose black, but there is a range of colours.

There are actually a lot of compression colour options available on the NHS prescription tariff. Some clinic nurses are not up to speed on this whilst many are very knowledgeable about colour options
