Great calf guards. Run small . My husband is 5”11 but with very very slender calves so although small fit, they were just too difficult to get off after a run. Mediums are easier. The guards mean he can run 4 times a week and hit the hills fast instead of occasionally due to calf tweaks. Best Buy of the year.

Look great, have purchased the black and hot pink. Tight fitting and comfortable though on some pairs the bottom seam is hard to get over the heel. Even though they should all be identical. Reflective strips start to peel after a few months. A good product but expensive for what it is.

Fits comfortably, good compression and warmth for exercise, especially running and high impact sports. I have ongoing issues with my knee and I feel it provides more stability when I use these, especially in the cold months of the year.
Had a few runs in these now, the size guide is correct although it's a bit tight getting over the heel of your foot and I'd imagine those with larger feet may risk tearing the product. I'm a size 8 and was tight getting the medium on. It's a very comfortable sleeve and does what it says it should do. The reflective graphics are a nice addition and overall happy with the product. I would of preference it to of been a little tighter but that's more a personal preference.
My friends play professionally and they always recommend me to get one of these. I’ve used this my last week game and it was amazing, felt tucked and my calves and shin’s were loose like I was 10yrs younger. Best part is it didn’t even roll down after all the beating from the game.I don’t have problem with it but my friend did mention that it would’ve been nicer if it could wrapped around the calves and shins only but length wise not far down to the ankles
I had a pair of the compression calf guards back in 2015 when I ran track. I have been using them since! However, a couple of accidental runs in the dryer made the design in the back gooey and kind of nasty. I reordered a pair and they are a bit smaller than I remember, but I’m sure they will stretch out in time. These help with shin splints and make my calves feel so good when I run! Love them.
I have a pair of these from several years ago, which are excellent so I thought I would get another pair - but the pair received are nothing like my earlier pair, and are of such poor quality I am wondering if they are fake. In particular, the stitching (which is black, not white as shown) is uneven and fraying right out of the box, the material is thinner, and there are no grip bands at the top and bottom of the sleeves. They are just shoddy and will be going back. Do not buy.
Just did a 96km hike over 25.5 hours and 4500m elevation. As I had just purchased these and not tested during training I didn't wear them during the event but put them on as soon as I finished. Wow! My calves feel great with them on and it has definitely helped with recovery. Highly recommend.
A little too tight. Will they expand? The right seems much tighter, almost so that it is painful. Measured it. So its the right size. Is this a matter of just getting used to?
