There are support hose that are supposed to help with circulation, relieve tired legs, etc.

Some regualr pantyhose claim this also.

I did not like the Smart Support at all. The Sheer Energy is OK for comfort but I am not certain it really gives any "revitalizing support".
It will only cost you $3 to find out for yourself.
Good Luck!

You should try simple support socks first. If those do the trick, then stick with them. If not, then maybe pantyhose might be an option, but support ones and not regular ones. If you go the support pantyhose route, there are ones that are made for a man. Do a Google search and I'm sure you'll find something.

They do offer leg support but are by no means comfortable. If you want to try something like it, get sliding pants. They are the pants that the baseball guys wear under their uniforms when they slide. They'll give support and will be way more comfortable than any nylons.

That person was pulling your leg - literally. Seriously, buy some support trouser socks. My second job is a stand-up job and I wear them all the time. I buy them from a catalog called Foot Smart. They are a little expensive, around $12.00/pair but well worth it. You can wash and dry them over and over and they never lose their shape. They come in black, brown, gray, tan and white. Check out the website - http://www.footsmart.com.

So maybe you just want to wear pantyhose but are looking for a 'reason'?
Just go for it.....who cares what people think!

Someone definitely lied to you....or maybe they were joking. Pantyhose are very uncomfortable and will be extremely itchy on hairy legs.
Try dr. scholls for your feet they work great.

They also make support socks for men. You could also try the diabetic support socks- they are good to help with circulation.

get a pair of fish nets, get some garters to hold them up. Some tight black panties and a corset would be dashing with it. oh... and maybe some pumps too, no, stiletos.
