Great for Weightlifting (Calves)

On heavy calf training cycles, this really helps me reduce the stress on my connective tissues. Maybe it's the mentality, but they're also great for running on the treadmill while I adjust to big calves. I put them on early, warm them up, and then leave them on for about 30 minutes. Although it's psychological, my weight has been increasing, so don't worry ;) It's not the tight compression garments people think of as strength training, just useful for mere mortals. If you are on the lower end…

Pros
  • Outdoors
Cons
  • Expandable

High Qaulity Skins Gear

To be honest these calves are 10 times more compressible than the cheaper sonic welded version which just has the skin printed on the side. I got them from the UK because they are hard to find in the US. I have used (and still use occasionally) 2XU, Zensah, CEP and they are by far the best. If you can handle the wait and are patient, you will love them. High quality with stitched edges, fit like a champ and stylish. I even bought a pair of their hand warmers/compression sleeves with the same…

Good product, runs small, runs small for my size.

Good product but small, material thinner than desired, had to return. BUT they were too tight. I am 6ft 4in calf 16.5in/42cm which according to their size chart is the middle of the LARGE. They were difficult to put on and literally within 5 minutes my toes were tingling from circulatory issues. By the way, they are of good quality and look good. anyway: I wanted something stronger/somewhat thicker stuff. I'm looking for support, but also muscle warmth. So instead of ordering the next size up…

Pros
  • Sports and outdoor activities
Cons
  • unreliable

Good product, runs small, runs small for my size.

Good product but small, material thinner than requested, had to return. I play basketball, runners may need a different/closer fit and will obviously appreciate the light weight. BUT they were too tight. I am 6ft 4in calf 16.5in/42cm which according to their size chart is the middle of the LARGE. They were difficult to put on and literally within 5 minutes my toes were tingling from circulatory issues. By the way, they are of good quality and look good. anyway: I wanted something…

Pros
  • Men's
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
