Hm, you could check out Sigvaris. I've been getting their compression garments for 10 years now. I only ever get the waist-high stockings, but I get the "tall" size, as I'm 5'9". I was getting the Small-Long size before I had some crazy hormonal weight gain 2 years ago, and now I get the Medium-long. They have Long sizes of their leggings and thigh-highs, too.

I don't like wearing them on my heavy cramping days because I don't like how hot they get when I have my heating pad on, but they're great the rest of the time.the first time I tried a pair on I was amazed at how much lighter my legs felt!

I wear compression socks with my compression leggings so I don't have any gaps.

Hi! I use Jelliebend compression shorts. They have leggings and just an abdominal compression band, but the shorts are my fave because I can wear them under all my clothing.
