What you are describing sounds like fit and fabric difference.
Bioflect
lighter support, high stretch, easier to put on, won’t bunch as much
but less structural containment
CzSalus
stronger containment, tissue feels lighter because it’s held more firmly
but if it’s bunching at the ankle/foot, that’s a length or taper issue
or the fabric is too stiff for your shape.
When a stronger garment bunches at the ankle it usually means:
the ankle is slightly loose relative to your calf
or the fabric can’t accommodate the calf/knee volume
or it’s slightly too long
or the foot section doesn’t match your foot size
To work with compression, it helps best about what you and your body can tolerate.
If you feel supported and comfortable in Bioflect and you can wear them all day, that helps you to be compliant.
If CzSalus makes your legs feel lighter but you get uncomfortable and have to remove them then they are not functionally better for you.
Compression only works if you can actually wear it consistently and it doesn’t become a focused issue, like "I have to wear these today", ugh.
For lipoedema shapes especially ankle taper + larger knee + soft tissue means stiff garments often migrate downward.
Try this test:
Wear your CzSalus for shorter periods (2–3 hours), then change into Bioflect.
See how your legs feel at end of day.
The best garment is the one that, stays in place, doesn’t cut in, doesn’t bunch, allows walking reduces heaviness and is something you want to wear everyday.
Most lipoedema legs have a knee transition.
If the garment isn’t shaped through that zone, it gets pushed downward.
I engineered Talking Compression Medical based on what I was told and shape I saw in my clinic here in Australia, the shape I kept seeing in clinic Lipoedema legs will not fit a straight-tube leg.
The two easy models to wear for Lipoedema, The 4603 is graded through ankle → calf → knee → thigh, with built-in knee shaping to reduce migration.
The 4203 uses the same grading logic in a Class 1 and Class 2 construction.
