The 3D anti-fatigue compression hiking / travel socks will be your indispensable companion for all your activities. Whether during air travel, sporting exertion or recovery, compression socks will become an essential part of your kit!
Benefits of compression
Improved venous return
Socks, thanks to their compression system, improve venous return. Muscles are better oxygenated and the feeling of fatigue is reduced. Seamlessly constructed, the 3D anti-fatigue compression hiking / travel socks enhance comfort during use and adapt perfectly to the shape of your calf.
Protecting against muscle fibre damage
While this benefit has not been scientifically proven, wearing compression socks during exertion plays a protective role for your muscles. The bracing and calf-support provided by the socks help cushion the impact of the ground on the muscles, which tends to cause micro-tears in muscle fibres.
Compression: how does it work?
For a muscle to contract, it needs oxygen and energy (in the form of modified sugar). Blood is carried to the muscle via the arteries and returns to the heart via the veins. For blood to reach the muscles, the heart must act as a pump — unlike the venous system, which requires no pump.
When a muscle is compressed, venous return becomes difficult. The compression provided by the socks is designed to improve this venous return, allowing blood to travel back to the heart and making room in the muscle for oxygenated blood coming from the heart.
Using compression socks
Socks for in-flight comfort
During flights, the immobility of your muscles means compression socks will help reduce the feeling of heavy legs caused by cabin pressure changes.
Due to the immobility during a flight, a slowdown in venous return and compression of the calves often occurs. Wearing compression socks will help counter this effect. The feeling of heavy legs will be reduced and you'll be able to enjoy your flights in greater comfort.
An essential ally during exertion
During your sporting outings, the 3D compression socks will support your foot, reducing the risk of injury. Whether you're out Nordic walking, trekking, trail running, sports walking, hiking, mountaineering or skiing, these socks will be invaluable and protect you effectively during exertion.
Getting back in shape with compression socks
Worn for a minimum of 2 hours during recovery, the compression socks will help you avoid cramps and aches and speed up recovery, so you're ready to go again the next day.
Value for money
CimAlp makes it a point of pride to put technology and comfort at the heart of its garments, giving you the freedom of movement essential for your sport. The affordable price of these 3D anti-fatigue compression hiking / travel socks is another strong point of this product.
Whether in the air, during exertion, or after, the 3D anti-fatigue compression hiking / travel socks are essential! Don't overlook them — you'll get far more out of both your travels and your sporting outings.
