Does anyone make Compression Socks in Saigon? Buying off the rack is not as good. I fly a ton and my friend just had a stroke relating to DVT.

Thanks in advance

Amazon would be a safe bet.

Thanks but that is off the rack...the best way is to have your foot/ calf measured then custom mzde

Cool idea. Anyone know where to get custom-made runners (not dress shoes)?

In virtually all cases, the measurements point toward sizes that can be purchased off the rack, or ordered pre-made from a company.

I have over 45 years of health care experience, and I've never known of a case where support hose were custom made for anyone.

The important part is having the custom measurements for a custom fitting.

Amazon may very well be the best source for a special size that's not normally sold over the counter.

Amazon and Vietnam is not a great option. Below is where I seen the information.

That's a good link.

Thanks.

If you can't get Amazon direct, there are middlemen who will ship for you

Very useful and detailed information. I would recommend it to friends who are looking for it, thanks Kooler for the input! Being cautious, I would recommend my friend to choose the degree of compression based on the doctor's advice.
