Rainey Recovery Wear

What Rainey Recovery Wear does

Rainey Recovery Wear (legal entity: Rainey Apparel Manufacturing) is a US-based manufacturer of post-surgical compression garments and surgical wear, founded in 1998 by Russell Rainey in Clarkston, Georgia. The company designs, produces, and distributes a comprehensive portfolio of compression garments — including women's and men's full body suits, high-back suits, mid and lower body suits, augmentation bras, men's chest vests, unisex binders and sleeves, and facial compression wraps — organized around its proprietary 1-2-3 Recovery System, a clinically-informed three-stage protocol that progresses patients from immediate post-op support (Step 1: dual-side zippers, drainage access) through ongoing compression (Step 2: front hook-and-eye adjustability providing up to 20% more compression than Step 1) to long-term shaping (Step 3: pull-on, 12-hour daily wear). Core technical specifications include a targeted 17-21 mmHg therapeutic compression range, medical-grade fabric (45% Nylon / 55% Lycra) with antimicrobial, moisture-wicking, and 4-way stretch properties, flat seam construction, cut-to-length legs/sleeves, and adjustable implant stabilizers, with sizing spanning XXS to 6X.

The company operates a vertically integrated, US-domestic manufacturing model at its Clarkston headquarters and distributes through two channels: (1) a direct-to-consumer e-commerce storefront (raineywear.com, with multilingual English/French/Spanish versions) selling individual garments at price points ranging from $26 for facial wraps to $232 for men's full body short-sleeve suits, offering free returns, in-store pickup, and express shipping; and (2) a B2B wholesale/clinic program selling directly to surgical practices and clinics with dedicated account support, custom sizing, and clinic pricing on multi-year relationships. Primary customers are patients recovering from cosmetic and reconstructive procedures (liposuction, tummy tucks, breast surgeries, gynecomastia, facelifts) and the plastic/cosmetic surgeons and medical practices that prescribe the garments.

The business is privately held and wholly founder-owned by Russell Rainey, with no external investment, parent company, or acquisition activity disclosed across the source set. Distribution combines omnichannel consumer e-commerce with bespoke B2B relationships sustained by decades-long surgeon collaborations informing product design, positioning the firm as a niche, founder-led specialist in post-surgical compression apparel.
