Used by my husband to protect delicate skin following leg ulcers - it works well for this purpose
Trial order
I have yet to wear- already use travel socks and medical socks, but neither always practical. Have a problem that slightest knock to my lower right leg means it spurts water which takes about 3+ weeks to heal. Want to try out this purchase to see if the idea works
Good
Too tight
Well made product but there is a but - the top has a stretchy elastication which is rather tight … hurting the back of my knees …. I pulled the elastic to stretch it … it’s came away releasing the knitted stitches … I have another new pair to use … I ‘m hoping the 2nd pair won’t be sooo tight .. I don’t have fat legs, quite skinny … so to be tight behind my knee area is uncomfortable - well made though
Comfortable leg leeves
So far so good. Easy to put on and they allow my skin to breath. They should help to protect against minor impact damage.

Excellent - I FEEL MUCH SAFER FROM DAMAGING MY SHINS
shin protectors
Certainly nice and warm, and may be some help, but not so sure about their ability to withstand the jostling of several large dogs! I am recommending them with the above proviso
Comfortable to wear
A good quality product and thick. I haven't had any knocks since wearing them but they seem cushioned enough to protect my legs from bruising and blemishing.
Leg Sleeves
I can't review these. The idea is great as I bruise very easily but they are far too long for me, I'm 5'2, it's my own fault I didn't read the sizeing properly. C. Weller
Excellent don't slip down knocked my leg against my bicycle pedal the other day no bruising
As I have fragile skin , they have been great , Many thanks
Durability of leg keeper
I previously bought a pair of leg keepers but found that they do not like to be put in the washing machine. They have come undone at the bottom, so I have had to buy another set. This time I will wash them by hand. Disappointed.
Great
A bit long, Nora Batty comes to mind but they are extremely protective. Will recommend them, perfect!
Too thin
Not as advertised. Too thin. !!!
Really good product
So far I’ve only tried the leg sleeves on, and am yet to wear them. Love the colour. I’m unlucky enough to have vulnerable, fragile skin and am prone to severe skin tears, so if I have to wear leg protection hosiery, I say let them be bright! I will definitely use these.
Has saved me no end of bruises!
For the first time in a very long time I don’t have any bruises on my shins. These are comfortable to wear, I don’t notice I’m wearing them. Only slight gripe is that they are about an inch too long, so I have to turn the top over, otherwise they bag around the ankles, and I am not short either. I shall try some arm ones for doing my gardening in the summer.
Good experience
Very smooth set-up, all worked as expected. Hope we don't have to test them , but it is nice to feel safer !!!
Leg protectors
Very easy and comfortable
Would be great if there were more size options
They don’t fit as illustrated. Must be a tall model! I like the texture and the feel against my skin, I only wish they were a better fit. I can use them over my jeans like dancers’ leg warmers but that’s not ideal though I do at least feel a bit more protected. I would recommend them to someone taller than 5’6”
Leg Sleeves
Unfortunately I cannot use at the moment as I having treatment for damage to one of my legs. Hopefully the product will be beneficial in the future.
