The purpose of this study was to estimate the usage and comfort levels of wearing sectional pressure socks, and sectional pressure pantyhose through psycho-physiological responses. Experiment samples are socks of sectional pressure, normal socks, pantyhose of sectional pressure and normal pantyhose. The subjects were 20 female university students. Each sample was measured over the same period of time, one day, and checked using electrocardiogram measurement to determine psychological comfort and a questionnaire to determine physiological comfort. From results of electrocardiogram measurement, normal socks decreased psychological comfort more than socks of sectional pressure over time. Moreover, the difference in the psychological comfort between in pantyhose, normal pantyhose or pantyhose of sectional pressure could not be discerned by the questionnaire. From the results of the questionnaire, both socks and normal socks increased knots and discomfort as time passed, but socks of sectional pressure brought down knots and remained at a comfortable level. In pantyhose, pantyhose of sectional pressure felt more comfortable than normal pantyhose for all regions of the leg. However, as comparing thigh to ankle and calf, pantyhose of sectional pressure of comfortable sensation value exhibited discomfort, and physiological comfort showed no significant difference between pantyhose of sectional pressure and normal pantyhose after 6 hours. Therefore, we assumed that comfortable sensation for pressure of clothes was impaired, comparing thigh to ankle and calf. Consequently, we conclude that psycho-physiological comfort for pantyhose of sectional pressure was influenced by pressure of clothes on the thigh.
