Given my recent runnbatical proclamation, some of you were wondering why I was still running so much. It’s all in the name of some product testing for none other than you my loyal readers!
Sigvaris Recovery Socks
- Feature true graduated compression to help athletes recover faster. Compression is strongest at the ankle and lessens as it goes up the leg to help flush out lactic acid that builds up after prolonged exercise.
- Relieve tired, aching legs
- Eliminate exercise-induced muscle soreness
- Patented Drirelease latex-free yarns with embedded Freshguard virtually eliminates odors
My impressions
These socks were nicely contoured before I even put them on. See how tapered the ankle area is? And how much ‘fuller’ the upper part is? All the better to fit my enormous muscular runner’s calves!
They have an appealing ‘cotton-like’ quality even though they have no cotton content. I found them to be super soft and comfy but offer great support at the same time.
I wore them after last week’s 13 and this week’s 15-miler as well as after some intense leg work at the gym. My only regret is that these don’t come in an up-to-the-waist style to soothe my overworked and badly aching hips!
