Product Review

You have probably seen people at races or running around the streets that have those compression socks or sleeves on. You may have thought to yourself, "Do those really work?" or "If those would help my shin splints or calf cramps?" "Absolutely!"

Compression: Does it Really Work?

Recent studies show that with an optimal level of consistent compression, the walls of the arteries will dilate, increasing the blood flow through them.
Arterial blood flow has been shown to increase up to 40% during activity and 30% during recovery. This means more oxygen and nutrients flowing through the body!
On the other hand, the walls of the veins will constrict under compression, which helps to increase the velocity of blood flow through them.

Benefit of Calf Compression Sleeve

1.Comfort: Increased circulation and improved blood flow. Increased oxygen to muscle tissue. Reduced pulled muscles and less exercised-induced muscle soreness in the legs.
2. Protction: Less lactic acid buildup in the legs during exercise. Improved energy, performance and recovery. Injury prevention and reduced shin splints & calf cramps
3. Dirt: Collects on your sleeves and not on your legs.
4. Coolness:  No they don't keep you cool, but look so cool.

How to Choose Calf Compression Sleeve

Make sure you measure your calves for proper sizing. Too tight and they're uncomfortable and impossible to put on. Too loose and they don't provide enough compression and slide down on the trail.
