SparthosCalf Compression Sleeves (Pair) – Immediate Shin Splint & Calf Pain Relief – Leg Socks for Men and Women

Walking and running

Very impressed with the compression of this Sparthos Calf Sleeves. I have had recent bad bouts of calf cramps which limited my running and training times during this long cold off season. I mainly run outdoors along tracks, pavements, and nearby trails. After each run, inevitably, the calf cramps and therefore also affects my gait and endurance. I even have had painful calf cramps in the middle of the night after a long hard run the day before. I started to look into calf sleeves as an option to save me from further pain. I went to various stores and tried versions of neoprene and spandex and nylon combinations but was never satisfied. The neoprenes were tightly compressed but tends to feel sweaty and clammy after use. The spandex/nylon combinations were too thin and didn't offer any suitable compression. When I put the Sparthos calf Compression Sleeves on, I immediately felt my preferred compression and yet allowing some breathability. Putting it one was very easy as the bands on either end allow enough stretch. I poked my calf and any jiggling was held in check. Very nice indeed. I have gone for long runs and fast sprint/stadium steps workouts. The sleeves don't move at all! There is no pinching and no build up of sweat. I normally do not remove the sleeve until at least an hour after exercise and I do feel it has recovery features also. I definitely agree this Sparthos sleeve has helped to remove most of my muscle soreness and i do feel less fatigued overall. I haven't had any soreness in the calf since wearing these Sparthos sleeves. Many thanks to Ingrid who was very responsive to my satisfaction of the sleeve. Ingrid helped me zeroed into a MEDIUM size. I have 16" calves and I wanted more compression, so I was able to size down and get what I perceive is my perfect combination. The blue color and the woven seamless pattern are striking and the material looks and feels very durable. The Spartan symbol is fun. (Coincidentally, I am training for a Spartan Sprint Race in June) - I do recommend you give these sleeves a try. Ingrid and her team are very customer service oriented.

Compression was suggested by my osteopath to help increase circulation. Within an hour of wearing I realized just how much I needed these. Blood flowing, swelling down, felt a little normal again. Super comfy (like a big hug for your calves), fit perfectly under slacks. Whatever is causing your vascular issues, these are a win in recovery.

Just received this product recently. Use it for leg cramps (calf) for several days now. Although still under evaluation, it appears to do what it states. Hope it holds up (quality appears OK ?). Because I wanted more compression I went down on the size. My calf measurements came in at 15 3/4, I ordered Medium and it worked out perfectly (for me).

At first look the product looks great, but just after using it for 5 runs (3mile) threads started show up and eventually turned into a hole.Would not recommend this product!
