Full Product Description
Gentle Compression. Exceptional Comfort. Day or Night.
The Comfiwave Below Knee Compression Garment by Haddenham Healthcare offers a comfortable, innovative approach to managing lower-leg swelling associated with lymphedema and chronic edema.
Designed with a distinctive three-dimensional wave-knit structure, Comfiwave delivers gentle therapeutic compression of 15–21 mmHg while providing the flexibility and breathability needed for comfortable wear during rest, relaxation, and sleep.
Unlike traditional compression stockings, Comfiwave features a highly elastic, seamless construction that makes the garment easier to put on and remove. Its soft, cotton-rich fabric rests comfortably against the skin, making it an appealing option for individuals who require ongoing compression as part of their prescribed treatment plan.
The unique wave-knit pattern creates variations in surface pressure that are designed to support lymphatic drainage and help manage tissue changes associated with chronic swelling.
Comfiwave may be worn overnight or during periods of daytime rest, as recommended by your healthcare professional.

Who Is This Garment For?
Comfiwave Below Knee is designed for individuals who need gentle, sustained lower-leg compression but may find conventional compression garments uncomfortable during rest or sleep.
It may be especially helpful for patients who benefit from continued compression outside their normal daytime treatment routine.
A healthcare professional experienced in compression therapy should determine whether Comfiwave is appropriate for your condition.
Compression Level
15–21 mmHg – Gentle Therapeutic Compression
Comfiwave uses a specialized three-dimensional knit to provide gentle compression.
This compression level should not be considered interchangeable with traditional graduated compression stockings or stronger compression garments.
Follow your healthcare provider’s recommendations regarding compression level and duration of wear.
Size and Fit Guide
Proper sizing is essential for comfort and therapeutic effectiveness.
The Comfiwave Below Knee garment is available in multiple sizes and lengths, depending on the manufacturer’s current selection.
For accurate fitting, measurements may include:
- Ankle circumference
- Widest calf circumference
- Lower-leg length
Measure according to the manufacturer’s current sizing chart, preferably with assistance from a trained compression garment fitter.
Important: Do not select your Comfiwave size based solely on your shoe size or the size of another compression garment.
Fabric and Comfort
Comfiwave features a soft, cotton-rich fabric with a seamless, highly elastic knit.
The breathable wave-knit structure promotes airflow while allowing the garment to conform comfortably to the contours of the lower leg.
Its flexible construction is designed to accommodate movement and make application easier.
How to Put On Your Comfiwave Below Knee Garment
- Ensure your skin is clean and dry.
- Gather the garment toward the foot section.
- Gently position the foot inside the garment.
- Align the heel with the contoured heel section.
- Gradually pull the garment upward over the ankle and calf.
- Smooth the fabric to eliminate folds, bunching, or excessive tension.
- Position the upper edge comfortably below the knee.
Avoid rolling or folding the top edge, as this can create unwanted pressure.
Remove and reposition the garment if you experience discomfort, numbness, tingling, or unusual skin discoloration.

- Wash regularly using the manufacturer’s recommended method.
- Use a mild detergent suitable for compression garments.
- Avoid bleach and fabric softeners unless specifically permitted.
- Dry according to the garment’s care instructions.
- Keep the garment away from excessive heat unless permitted by the manufacturer.

Proper garment care helps preserve comfort and compression performance.
Important Precautions and Contraindications
Compression garments are not appropriate for every patient.
Comfiwave should not be used in individuals with certain conditions, including advanced peripheral arterial occlusive disease, decompensated heart disease, uncontrolled congestive heart failure, untreated septic phlebitis, phlegmasia cerulea dolens, or known allergies to garment materials.
Additional medical assessment is necessary for individuals with impaired sensation, neuropathy, skin infections, certain wounds, or other conditions that may affect safe compression use.
Comfiwave should not be used over highly exuding wounds or as a substitute for prescribed wound care.
