CopperJoint Calf Compression Sleeve for Men & Women, Footless Leg Support Sleeve, Wide Calf Friendly Fit, Breathable Copper-Infused Fabric for Running, Work and Everyday Wear, Single Sleeve, Large

I'm an artist, 50, runner, very fit. I started to develop serious calf pain out of nowhere quite recently. It was a "pulling" type pain that ran the length of my calf and intensified five minutes into my runs. I've read that this type of pain is common among runners from time to time, and that luckily the pain is chronic and usually temporary. I dropped eight pounds of Covid fat, and began hydrating intensely before my runs. These small measures helped..... But the pain persisted. So I stopped running for few days and began a slow but steady regimen of using a foam roller over the calf, coupled with an anti-inflammatory, and some low intensity stretching. This helped a bit. On the recommendation of a friend, I bought two pairs of compression sleeves (the CopperJoint and the Rymora) and tested both for a couple of weeks. The results were immediate. The pain is MUTED, not gone, but certainly bearable. It's as though the sleeve "contains" the pain, muffles it, so that I can still run and maintain leg strength, slow and sure. The sleeves are not uncomfortable or even noticeable. It's an odd sensation rolling these up your legs, almost like male stockings. I have no idea what difference, if any, the "Copper" contributes. I've completed over ten runs since using the sleeves, but I lowered my runs to 33:33 intervals, (3 is a lucky number....), and before my runs I drink tons of lemon water, use the roller, and take a hot shower.... For running junkies, it's God awful when you can't run and you start to feel your body betray you. I've found that as you get older you have to hurl several small measures at the pain in order to heal, and this CopperJoint sleeve most certainly helped. Stay hydrated, lower your running time, use a foam roller, hydrate and roll these sleeves up those sexy legs and i'm sure your runs will improve....hope this helps.....

I have a couple of minor injuries to my right calf that caused damage to the veins in my leg some years ago. Consequently, by being over 60 and on my feet all day, they have developed into varicose veins. I also suffer crippling calf cramp (Charley's horse). Having read several reviews here and elsewhere, I decided I'd see if these might help. Their price point was attractive, and aesthetically they didn't make it obvious why I was sporting them. After a few days of wearing them while covering at least five miles on concrete floors every day, I can report that they have not stretched, nor do they have an odour problem like some materials can have. What's remarkable (to me at least), is how the varicose veins have significantly reduced over this time - becoming almost invisible by the time I remove the sleeve just before retiring. There's also no itching anymore, nor discomfort, nor sensitivity (beyond an awareness of the old injury), and they fit well enough that after the first couple of days, I'm really not aware of them being on. Best of all, I've not had cramp since I first wore them. I've no idea whether they are meant to give me quite the medical relief they have, or whether that's due in part at least to my 'self-care' regime, but in any event, I couldn't be happier with the results.

Great quality. Really compresses the calves with full support with no pain. Only problem is putting them on is super tight and the material feels thick, but if you’re having a problem taking them off just slip the top end to the bottom and use your toes to pull them out.

The compression sleeves fit very nicely and are working as well as socks I have used in the past.

These compression stockings are great! They stay put on my thick calves and provide appropriate compression to keep the swelling and pain down. We do wash these in cold water and hang to dry. Have had did quite awhile and they are doing well!

I ordered regular thinking my ankles are not really swelled. First set I could not get past toes even with spreader stretcher te ordered med med size . Same thing. Ordered large same deal . So I’m not happy maybe fit petter lady . I now simply slide my leg knee supports down to ankles . Works fine.

Item was as described! Im satisfied.

These work very well. Good compression without squeezing too tightly. Good value !

The size does not fit. Seller refund without hassle

Funcionan muy bien, la compresión es excelente. Acostumbro a correr, pero, últimamente me lesionaba de la pantorrilla, sin ningún motivo aparente. Probé las medias de compresión y todo cambió. No he tenido lesiones en los últimos 3 meses, y corro muy cómodo con ellas. De momento las sentía muy apretadas a pesar de ser mi talla, al cabo de 4 o 5 usos, me quedan a la medida. Las recomiendo.
