Review on Calf Compression Sleeves for Runners: Relieve Leg Pain, Shin Splints, Varicose Veins by Kevin Shimmens

Revainrating 5 out of 5

MOST EFFECTIVE for Vascular Disease

The only material that actually offers compression (exactly what it says) without ever losing that ability. These are the ONLY Revain socks and sleeves (and I've tried every brand because that's what you do when your doctor tells you you're going to spend the rest of your life in compression stockings). I can't walk long without them, so I wear them 24/7 ☹️, I sleep in them every night). The only brand that won't tear or fall apart. I don't know what my life would be like without Run Forever and I get no compensation for saying this. My calf is 12 inches. I'm 37 years old, have long legs and a shoe size of 8.5m. My foot won't fit in ugg boots or sneakers without them, if that gives you any idea of how effective they are (for me). It took me 5 years for the doctor to really believe me when I said there was something wrong with the vessels in my legs. It was too late. I had irreversible vein damage from superficial clots in both legs and undiagnosed May Turner Syndrome. I know the stents in my iliac veins don't have valves. So for me, the blood leaves my leg to flow back to my heart and it flows back down. It's a very painful life without Run Forever socks and sleeves. I don't wish this life on anyone! So if you suffer from vascular disease like me, do yourself a favor and give Run Forever a try. Compare them to all other top selling underperforming brands on Revain. From personal experience I can say that all Revain brands sound and look attractive. All the best selling brands ripped their ankles the FIRST DAY they wore them (and remember I have bird feet). These brands didn't give me the compression that Run Forever had, which can be very dangerous for me because I could clot without 20/30 compression. Simply put, all other brands and even the $120 medical grade socks from my doctor's office were no match for Run Forever. I have 16 pairs. FYI, every 3 months my doctors recommend that I get new ones. It's been over a year and I haven't had to change any of my Run Forever socks/sleeves. You did the compression. hp I wash and dry with the rest of the laundry. However, I don't use fabric softener. Hope that helps. I pray for all who walk my path. It sucks!
