I bought these to help with the recovery of shin splints during the rest period and to continue using them after to help prevent further damage. I found that they have helped and I wear before/during and after my HIIT training. They do feel quite thin however this doesn't particularly matter as they still seem to do the job with a solid compression exactly where is needed. I find that if you do get sweaty they can sometimes shift down the calf a couple cm and need readjusting every so often but the main calf is still covered. Overall, I feel they do what they need to and have definitely helped. I dont often do a work out without them now!

I've used them on a few run and during one triathlon and they definitely seem to help. The additional layer between the air and my skin was great on a chilly/rainy triathlon bike segment.

Really happy with this purchase. I bought them specifically for a trail race in some pretty scrubby and hilly terrain. The compression helped a lot with managing muscle fatigue during the race, but also they protected my legs from getting scratched up in the bushes on the overgrown tracks, but didn't get damaged or torn. They also helped to keep my legs warm in cold wet mountain conditions.I was a bit uncertain about sizing (there was no size chart on the product online), but I ended up getting the Medium which are a good fit on the calves, although a bit difficult to slip on and off over my feet.
Great, great product. My chiropractor suggested I try a pair of calf sleeves. ( He is the runner and loves your product) My feet and ankles swell and they work great and feel refreshing wearing them. Thank you.
My son is 12 going on 13 & has had some impressive growth spurts this last year. Along with his 2XU compression half tights, we have kept the muscle niggles & injuries at bay that were appearing before we got onto the 2XU gear. He loves wearing the calf guards, I love the muscle mapping & we feel confident that he can perform at his peak.
I really like these calf compression sleeves. They are extremely light and thin but yet provide stellar support. Will be excellent during the summer. I have worn them on 3 runs and are pleased. Must be washed on gentle and left out to dry, but they do dry quick due to the material. It is a bit pricey(as is all of the 2XU stuff) but in my view it is worth it. Be careful on sizing - I read reviews on other sights before purchasing and was warned of this. I have about a 14-15" calf circumference and small was the right size. RRS is great on returns, but I would go with a size smaller than what you would normally do.
Worked great for me. Could barley continue my workouts and these showed up in the mail. Took about a week of continuous wearing for exercise and walking and my shins healed up great. Highly recommended.
Bought these for marathon training after finding my calves hurting after long training runs. Have so far been very impressed and the calves are now less sore. The support is also very good during races. Only had one issue which was my fault for pulling the sleeve laterally. This caused them to slip down mid run and bunch at the bottom of the calf. Went on for a few miles like this and ended up with a minor injury. I now make sure that they are properly placed on the calf and wet the 'felt' collars at both the bottom and top of the sleeve to stop slipping. They haven't slipped since. Overall a good buy.
Liked the way they helped calf pain, but the stitching started to come undone on the first wash. After washing there were holes in the seams, which needed to be sewn up again in order to wear again. This was disappointing as a product designed to use while exercising, I would expect they would wash well too.Had they not developed holes after washing I would 100% recommend the product.
