CEP Women's Progressive+ 2.0 Night Run Socks

I first found out about CEP compression socks at a marathon expo last year. They wanted $65 for them, however, which they said was an excellent price, but I wanted to look them up before buying. Regardless, they told me that CEP does the research on bloodflow and muscles used for different exercises, and designs socks to best accentuate each. Now I know compression socks are phenomenal for running, both for better performance, AND for recovery. I am glad I bought these on Amazon, however, because I saved a little $$$--they were $58 here, with free and fast shipping. Fit wise, I ordered the correct size, and they are a tight tight fit… hard to get on, but it's best to sort of "roll" them on to my calves. Once they're on, I can tell they are compressing my calves. I am a typical distance runner, physique wise--not super bulky calves, rather just slender and not big muscles, and although I have smallish calves, I can tell they DEFINTELY compress them. My knees seem to look almost unusually big to me, but that's me being my own worst critic. All the same, I did notice my run seemed to be less effort than usual (it was a 10 mile run), and the recovery period was rather easy, although I only wore them for two hours after my run and switched to some cheaper compression socks (plus I wanted to shower, LOL!). I couldn't really tell whether the night run "dots" really were reflective--ask the cars on the road whether they saw me! Either way I didn't get hit :-) But I can say I am pleased with my purchase in terms of expedient shipping, price, and effectiveness of the product, so I think that clearly deserves 5 stars--and as far as compression socks go, CEP is DEFINITELY head and shoulders better than the competition!

Perfect fit and pressure. Using it for circulation issues - big improvement in leg swelling! No binding or cutting off circulation at the knee. Worth the money. I would definitely but again!

I run a lot and these are good to run in the only thing that I wish is that they had some padding like the rest of my running socks. I know that these are compression but looks as if they could have some in the heel and toes for a more comforting fit. I just put my running socks over these. That works too.

I wore these on a 10 hour flight and they worked very well. I typically have swelling of the legs and ankles on long flights but did not have any when I took the CEP compression socks off. I do advise to go to the CEP website to measure for proper fitting before ordering. The socks fit according to the measurement guidelines. They are expensive but worth the money!

The pink is definitely a hot pink, but they were on sale for a great price and I care more about fit and functionality than looks. I have the mens version in white in the same size and was concerned how these would fit my larger feet and calves. They may be slightly tighter than the mens but I really can't tell much difference. Like any compression sock, they aren't exactly easy to get on. I found a video online that shows a quick way to put them on. They have reduced calf tiredness and cramping during my runs. I'll keep them on up to an hour after my long run and have found that they have pretty much gotten rid of any calf soreness and dead leg feeling I had before. Only drawback of compression socks vs sleeves is you are stuck with whatever sock thickness they come with. These are a nice thickness, with lightweight on the top and medium thickness on the foot for cushioning.

THIS PRODUCT IS GOOD BUT IT CAUSES ME TO GET LEG CRAMPS

Not a fan of these. I measured and ordered the proper size according to the sizing chart, but they end up making my legs very tired on runs. Would not recommend.

I love these compression stockings. I wear them constantly and have all the bright colors for night running. They really help in performance and definitely recovery especially given the fact that my knees are bad and it takes longer to recover (a Tom Brady description). I like these the best of any of the compression stockings and wear them in addition to compression tights when it is cold.

These are superb. They really support your calves and give you that extra confidence when coming back from an injury. Hopefully they prevent further ones. They are a bit of a struggle to put on but well worth the effort. The colour is a bit of a talking point!

Las amo, son buenísimas. Las usé para viajar en avión por 20 horas y aunque es incómodo estar sentada por tantas horas, mis piernas no se inflamaron :) También las uso para el gym

CEPソックスは疲れなくて最高です。 安いので不安でしたが、全く問題ないです。 色もカワイイ！！

Great item, great seller
