Sugoi R+R Compression Socks

If you’ve attended any triathlons or marathons lately you’ve no doubt seen competitors sporting something that looks like Larry Bird’s socks. Sure, the trend looks a little…different, but lately athletes in all sports are realizing the benefits of compression clothing. The idea is that when worn after exercise, compression socks can encourage circulation in the extremities and speed recovery. Now, many athletes are realizing that compression can yield benefits during activities as well. Sugoi spent time in the lab with scientists at Hong Kong Polytechnic proving the benefits of their R+R Compression socks, and found that they improved circulation and increased muscle stability- it all adds up to being able to work harder and longer due to reduced muscle fatigue. Our testers used the socks at first for post-race recovery but liked them so much they started wearing them for running and cycling workouts.

Aside from the compression aspects, Sugoi has put together a mean running sock. They are made with a left- and right-specific shape for better fit and the toe seam is very minimal and is located on the underside of the sock. They have several densities of cushion pads located right where you need them. The fit of these socks is outstanding and our testers commented that blisters were never a concern with the Sugoi socks. So go ahead, put on some short shorts and the Sugoi R+R Compression Socks for your next run. See if you don’t feel like Superman. For more information, visit www.sugoi.com.
