There are lots of good quality comfortable hose that help you stay on your feet with less pain and inflammation. Best brands I have encountered are JC Penneys, Donna Karan, Calvin Klein. Don't bother with the cheaper stuff. Much support hosiery is not that comfortable over the long term. Be sure to buy at least your size if not one size larger, or else it feels constricting. The good stuff really does help you on your feet and you feel a lot less tired at the end of the day, a secret women no longer can keep just for themselves.

Go to your doctor and have him write a prescription for support hose. This way you can wear pantyhose and the government will reimburse you for them at tax time. You may even be covered under your health plan. These panty hose are far sturdier and will last a long time without running or tearing. Hope this helps :)

you are a guy? and thinking of wearing pantyhose to work? for the support? where do you work La Cage De Fal? or the Bird Cage?
go get a good pair of men's shoes like Rockports that are cushioned and support your feet
as far as the hose - i prefer WOMEN in thigh highs

Women don't like wearing pantyhose, then why should you. Whoever told you that is not your friend but is just setting you up for something, don't do it, the pain and humiliation will kill you.

they are lying to you...pantyhoes don't help anything besides smoothing out fat and making your legs look tanner than they are. I used to do front desk at a hotel - get those cushy insoles for your feet, that's about the best thing you can do.

There are medical support 'hose' for people with circulation problems. Check your pharmacy.

They are VERY uncomfortable. I refused to go to a college because they were part of the daily dress code.
