LUXURY LEGWEAR
Gerbe (pronounced "zhurb") is one of the outstanding European manufacturers of the highest quality hosiery in the world. Their mill in Burgundy, France, supplies us with incredibly well crafted goods, designed and sized specifically for men.
Gerbe's fabrics are top quality, and their compression fabrics are truly extaordinary. “Drain-up” is their clever way of noting the compression quality of their full support tights and knee high socks for men. This fabric enhances circulation by prohibiting the blood from pooling in the feet, hence “draining” the blood upward toward the heart and thereby reducing the risk of medical problems from long periods of standing or sitting. They’re an excellent choice for travel as well.
These are the absolute best European legwear for men, and even though they may seem outrageously expensive, once you open and try on a pair, you’ll quickly realize that it's a good value and well worth the premium price. So treat yourself to extraordinary quality and you will be delighted. Sure, an economy car will get you there, but a luxury car will get you there in style. Enjoy the ride!
A Word on Sizing
Please note: Gerbe's sizing is quite different from ACTIVSKIN, so be sure to click on the size guide button above to determine your correct size in this brand. If you take an XL in ACTIVSKIN, chances are good you might take a Large in Gerbe. We also stock Small size, which is roughly equivalent of Medium in ACTIVSKIN, but extends to smaller men. Treat the size guide as just that - a guide. The only way to know for sure is to try the legwear on.
WAIST HIGH STYLES
All of the waist high styles below feature flat-sewn seams for superior comfort, a reinforced heel as well as toe, a male-comfort front panel with fly opening, a back panel, and a wide, comfortable waistband with Gerbe logo. They are boarded (pressed to shape) for an elegant presentation before being carefully folded and packaged in a highly protective plastic envelope. Handcrafted in France.
