Common questions.

Why wear them after running instead of during?

During a run, your muscles do the work of keeping things moving. The hours after are when your legs go quiet and need something working for them instead. That's where compression earns its keep.

How long should I wear them for?

Generally 2–6 hours after a run. Most of the recovery benefit happens in the first few hours after exercise. On rest days or after a race, you can wear them longer if your legs still feel heavy.

Will they slip down or bunch?

Not if you're in the right size. Compression socks that slip are almost always undersized. If yours are slipping, size up.

What does 20–30mmHg actually feel like?

A firm, noticeable squeeze — especially at the ankle. It should feel like firm pressure, not pain. If it's painful or leaves deep marks after a short wear, check your size or speak to a healthcare provider.

Can I sleep in them?

You can, but there's not much benefit. Graduated compression works with gravity and movement — when you're lying flat and still, the conditions that make it useful aren't really there.
