More about compression sleeves

Questions often asked

What Are Compression Sleeves?

Compression sleeves apply graduated pressure to the applied area, improving blood circulation and supporting muscle tissue. This controlled compression increases oxygen delivery to the muscles which leads to better performance and faster recovery.

Why do I need them as an Athlete?

Whether you're sprinting, lifting, or running a marathon, your calves absorb massive strain. Compression sleeves reduce muscle oscillation during impact and help maintain alignment. This means fewer injuries, less soreness, and more consistent performance over time.

What are the benefits?

Studies show that compression gear can improve venous return, reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), and enhance proprioception, which isyour awareness of limb position. That means better mechanics, faster recovery, and a lower risk of injury.

Are they comfortable?

Our compression sleeves are anatomically contoured to the calf, ensuring support without restriction. Thanks to our breathable yet durable fabric, they’re tough enough for elite training, and comfortable enough to wear daily during intense routines.

Can any athlete use them?

Absolutely. Whether you're a sprinter, basketball player, footballer, CrossFit athlete, distance runner... Stryde compression sleeves are built for YOU.

Calf compression isn’t limited to endurance athletes or runners. Any athlete performing sports that involves explosive movement, repetitive strain, or high-volume training that puts stress on the lower legs, can benefit from our sleeves. They provide critical support to the calf muscles, reduce fatigue during long sessions, and accelerate recovery in between.

If you train with intensity, you’ll benefit from compression.

Stryde is made for serious athletes, no matter the field, court, or track.
