Tips for Flat Knit Compression Garments  

Picking a custom made flat knit garment is not always easy… There are many garment choices, and it can be very confusing to both you and even your fitter or therapist to decide on the right garment. JOBST tries to make that choice a little easier by having 3 different knits for containment.

 

JOBST Elvarex, JOBST Elvarex Soft, and JOBST Confidence are flat knit materials that work to contain swelling from lymphedema.

  • JOBST Elvarex flat knit is the most containing garment. This is:
    • for moderate to severe swelling
