Choosing Your OS1st Socks or Compression Sleeve

Compression Bracing Sleeves
OS1st bracing sleeves target particular areas of the body. Select the model designed for the area you need to support, rather than assuming one sleeve provides the same support as another.
For example, the KS7 Knee Sleeve combines mapped compression with a slim, breathable construction designed to support knee stability while maintaining mobility. os1st.com
Check the Size and Compression Details
Use the size chart for the specific product. Different models may require different measurements, and OS1st recommends choosing the larger size when you fall between sizes. os1st.com
Check whether the product is supplied individually or as a pair, and whether it requires a left or right option.
Caring for Your OS1st Products
Follow the care instructions for your particular model. OS1st’s instructions for compression bracing sleeves are to hand wash with mild soap and air dry, avoiding bleach and fabric softener. Sock washing instructions can differ. os1st.com
