Made To measure Compression for Lipedema and Lymphedema

Medical compression stockings are at the heart of the treatment of lipedema and lymphedema, scars or burns. That's because only flat-knitted compression stockings offer a firm barrier against edema due to their knitting technique and the medically correct pressure pattern.

For our flat-knitted compression quality Lastofa Forte with merino wool, we consciously rely on the advantages of natural fibers. They provide us with a high level of wearing comfort: merino wool combines high moisture transport with natural odor inhibition and a pleasant temperature balance. In addition, the natural materials are characterized by their special skin-friendliness and very low allergy potential.

New fashion colours

For more individuality.

Two new colours have been added to the Lastofa Forte range: Hibiscus and Agave are available for all compression garments as of October 2024. The new colours have been created to make it easier for you to wear your compression garments on a daily basis and to integrate them into your everyday life as best as possible

Lastofa Forte with Heart

Because it depends on you. Always.

Lastofa Forte with merino wool is now available with a small heart on request – to help remind you how important you and your needs really are. We would like to encourage you to be consistent with your therapy and to shape your life in a more independent way. Below the wrist, at the end of the arm stocking or between the ball and heel in the foot area, the small therapy tool is just for you.

High flexibility

Ballet, cross-legged or splits? Sure.

Lastofa Forte offers maximum freedom of movement. Due to its special yarn construction, the material is especially soft. Its longitudinal elasticity makes it flexible and adapts perfectly to the body with every movement. Because the material is not cross-elastic, it always maintains its fit without any pressure or pinching. This means that the stockings do not have any visually noticeable functional zones, even around sensitive areas such as the knee or elbow. Lastofa Forte always ensures constant compression and a high working pressure applied over a large area.

Climate control

Cool in summer – warm in winter? Sure.

Merino wool fibres have the finest air cushions that store body heat. Thus the merino wool keeps you warm in winter and cool in the summer.
Even in humid weather, merino wool can unfold its warming properties. Just as merino wool stops body heat from escaping, it also protects the body from heat from outside. As a result, you sweat less. In addition, it has an odour-repellent and dirt-repellent effect.

Optimal fit

Designs for every demand? Sure.

Custom-fit elevation where it is necessary:
Special designs such as a lateral elevation or an upper leg elevation not only offer an optimal fit and pressure distribution, but also increase the comfort. For special needs, such as those of patients in wheelchairs, for example, it is possible to knit in at the ankle to optimize the fit and prevent wrinkling.

Smooth finish

Easy to put on and take off? Sure.

Lastofa Forte glides easily over the skin when you put it on. This means that the stockings are very easy to slip on even when the skin is still damp. In addition, outerwear such as trousers, blouses, etc. glide easily over the stockings. By the way: Even taking off the flat-knitted compression every day is easier with Lastofa Forte.

Ultra flat seams

Strikingly unobtrusive? Sure.

Flat-knitted compression has a noticeable feature. The knitted fabric must be closed with a longitudinal seam to the stocking. One thing is very important here: a flat seam that is not bulky and does not cause pressure marks. With Lastofa Forte, the longitudinal seam is very flat on the inside. A textile band on the outside of the seam provides additional stability. If you like, you can use the seam as an appealing eye-catcher - with elegant accents in crocodile, bronze, silver or ruby.
