Running and Performance

Your socks should feel comfortable and firm hug around your legs. In fact, if your legs feel like they are hot or throbbing a bit, that means they're working (and this feeling will go away as your body adjusts). If you are feeling pain then your compression socks are too tight. We recommend reading this article and our guides to find the right fit. Learn more

You may see some slight 'pulling' near the ankle-bone (where you can see a bit of skin through the fabric of your socks.) You might see it more with the dark-colored socks, but it shouldn't be noticeable to anyone but you. This is from the softer, terry-loop fabric meshing with the nylon fabric. It's not a defect and won't affect the performance or fit of your socks.

We offer Wide-Calf (WC) sizes for those with larger or more muscular calves. If you're not someone who can pull off a skinny jean or have larger than average calves, you'll want WC. You can also measure your calf using this size chart

Comrad socks are not a medical product. We harness the beneficial properties of compression technology and knitting design but at a level below 25 mmHg, which does not qualify us as a medical product.
