Sparthos Thigh Compression Sleeves (Pair) – Quad and Hamstring Support – Upper Leg Sleeves for Men and Women – Made from Innovative Breathable Elastic Blend – Anti Slip

I pulled a hamstring a week before a planned hike in the North Dakota Badlands. Didn't want to cancel the trip, so began doing everything I could to quickly rehab, and also looked for protection for the hike. The Sparthos thigh compression sleeve was a key component for both, and my leg held up while camping.Sizing seems to be everyone's primary concern, so let me provide specifics. I'm 5'8" and weigh 168. My thighs are 22" at the thickest point (about halfway). The size guide told me to order the XXL, which seemed wrong to me. I didn't have time so I ordered the XXL and the XL. The XXL fit perfectly and provided an ideal level of compression. It helped blood circulate to the area during rehab and provided just the right level of support when hiking. By comparison, the XL felt a little uncomfortably tight.Staying in place: I wore the sleeve all day every day during the hike. The temps were pretty high (80's, 90's, and one day above 100) so I was sweating pretty good. Also had to do a couple river crossings (slightly above waist high water). Through it all, the sleeve stayed in place and didn't slip. I've since used it in the gym where, regardless of the movement I'm doing, it remains in place.Support: Can't say enough. It definitely helped speed up my recovery, and held my thigh together through some challenging conditions. I was very deliberate in how I moved coming off the injury, but the sleeve definitely improved my confidence. All in, I was pleasantly surprised at how effective this simple structure has been.

I sized down according to the size chart, but I have been pleased with these. They are quite tight and they don't roll down. I don't think I'd wear them all day, but for a few hours, they are comfortable.

pros. Relieves pain an prevents muscle spasms in my right leg that has permanent damage due to M.S. Keeps me able to work a job where i am on my feet almost 10 hours a day. My Dr. told me to try a compression sleeve and see if it helped and it definitely made a difference. cons. over time and use this will start to slide down your leg, it has rubber around the inside top and bottom to help prevent it, but it only works for a few months before it will start to slide down your leg. This is the 5th brand i have tried and by far the best in this price range. It comes with 2 in the box and last me about 6 months, oh and 1 other thing don't try washing them and throwing them in the dryer to shrink them to get them to stop sliding down your leg as they get old. follow the washing instructions on the box, it will save you a big mess, just get a new pair when they wear out.

I received this product today. I have occasional pain in my left thigh. I workout hard, and this obviously contributes to the pain. I am short wearing a size small in clothing. My legs are, in my opinion, disproportionatly short even for my height. I measure 19.5" around the widest part of my thigh. Despite my measure being the upper limit of the XL and the lower measure of the XXL, I chose the XL. I felt given the 23" XXL upper limit, the XXL would best accommodate a larger thigh. The XL is perfect, and the sleeve fits comfortably over my leggings. It's a little loose near the knee. On a taller person, this area would be further up the thigh where wider. I have yet to wear the sleeve during a workout, but I anticipate no problem doing so. I most likely will wear it mainly on a painful day after working this area.

I'm prone to leg cramps when walking all day on hard surfaces. These compression sleeves seem to have prevented this after walking for days on concrete. They're well made, have a grippy seam at the top, and have the right amount of compression for their size. The fabric covering is prone to snags and fraying so be careful when storing or washing them with anything that has a hook and loop (like Velcro) strip.Pro tip: if you also tend to get tendon spasms or muscle cramps due to walking all day, add some electrolyte supplements to your water and drink a little more than you normally do. Cramping seems to be associated with imbalance and possibly dehydration, and including supplements with these compression sleeves really saved me. This is not medical advice, just a suggestion based on personal experience.

I ordered these and for the most part I like them. They do the job descriped. I'm on dialysis 3 days a week and these really do help with the swelling a d pain in my legs. However I found that the top rubber band that holds them in place is very uncomfortable and does pinch way to tight. I simply cut the threads and removed the rumber . Now they fit even better and they still don't slide down. There just the right amount of snug without cutting off to much circulation. If it wasn't for the rubber cutting into me and causing more pain I'd give 5 ✨ . Product is very sturdy and well made. Easy to use and helpful.

BOUGHT THIS FOR MY HUSBAND WHO WAS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HIS KNEE. THE ELASTIC WAS TIGHT BUT NOT RESTRICTING. GAVE GOOD SUPPORT TO THE KNEE AREA AND WAS ABLE TO MOVE WITH EASE

The measurement/size chart directed me to order an XXL. I received and used the XXL and found that the size did not offer enough compression for my hamstring. I then ordered the XL, used that size and found the XL size offered a comfortable, yet stronger compression for my hamstring. I am very happy with the XL size. I may try to use the XXL over the XL. Maybe both together may offer even more relief. The product appears to be of good quality.

Honestly great! I play soccer and sometimes pull my groin, these are lifesavers, I put them on during each game and don't have to worry.

Que el producto es de muy alta calidad lo estoy usando en mis piernas y me sirve muy bien

No me gusto del todo.

Suite à un claquage à ma cuisse, cet achat me fourni une très bonne compression qui me permet de continuer à jouer au hockey.

Great the only ones that work on Legg. Need to tuck at knee it's a little loose at knee
