I am trying to find something for calf and knee compression. Would these give enough support?

Hi, they serve me well for gym warm ups - rapid walk & keeps me supported for standing work ours . However for strenuous leg workouts & squats I use knee strap over these pants . Das

Yes but with regular use they do wear out quickly, the a400's seem to be more durable and offer greater support

If you really want calf and knee compression fully then you can buy the calf skins. These tights help to increase my bloodflow and help me to feel more powerful especially when doing legs. I do not have any calf injuries or knee injuries but I use these for Spin and Heavy Leg Days.

For me it is. I don't have a need for compression socks. I need support due to very thin foot.

I don't see why not. They are a knee high dress sock that offers compression. Many runners are using compression socks these days.

I really don't think this will work. I bought this device for my father, who had a hip replacement surgery recently. He uses some heavy duty socks, which are a little less harder than compression socks. Well, the device worked for that, but honestly I really don't know if this will do the same for compression socks.

Yes. In my opinion when I wear the compressions, I feel more secure. I feel my legs are supported as I run. I do not feel overly compressed or too tight. I wear them for every run and love the feel. Definitely recommend.

My wife says maybe. You have to put the sock on over the plastic thing and she is not sure whether a compression sock may be too tight to do that or too long in length, but it might work. If it doesn't work you can always send it back if you buy it from Amazon - doesn't cost that much. It certainly helped my wife getting her regular socks on for the first month or two after she broke her leg. You can't take socks off with this thing.

If you have clots, these compressions would be too tight for you. I do not recommend purchasing, rather to find stockings that are only knee high. You can find those at any surgical supply store.

I would say so ... There is plenty of extra slack on mine and I have normal size legs for an athlete. Plus they stretch and give alittle

If one has varicose veins, a doctor's prescription for support docks is advisable. A friend of my loves them, my experience with them wasn't great- had to return them. Your physician will tell you what compression is needed in your situation Andorra often than not, Amazon will have them, or your local medical supplier. Hope this helps.

This product is great for supporting your knees for a short time during intense exercise. If your looking for somthing for all day use, i would recommend getting a compression sleeve. They are comfortable and easy to put on and maintain.

No, I don't think this device will work for you. I don't wear compression socks but a friend of mine does, and he needs assistance daily to put them on.I bought this because I have trouble (at 67 years of age) of touching my toes and have had difficulty every day putting on my wool socks - this certainly makes the chore much easier.

I Believe so. They help supporting my wrists when lifting heavy weights. give them A try

They have adjustable hooks at the top and Velcro straps for the calf I'm not a big guy and still have plenty of slack so yes I think they would work

I don't think they would fit over the of the average calf with a mx boot on. I would say most mx boots offer good shin protection and would work well a smaller knee pad but are way to restrictive for mountain biking which these are built for.

A compression of 15-20 medium would not be the same as a 20-50 large. Size depends on height from ankle to knee and diameter of calf and diameter of ankle. Compression is the tightness of the fabric and you should get what your doctor ordered.

Go to skins.net, choose a pair of compression socks then hit "size guide". It's by calf size. The socks are amazing, I have five pairs (and no relation to the company).

I use them for playing basketball when I tweaked my ankle. They provide good support, but I would not use them when looking for support only.
