Zensah Compression Sleeves

  /  
May 15, 2013

You all know how much I love my compression socks.  They’re amazing when I’ve completed a long run (which hasn’t happened in SO long), because they help circulate the blood and assist with muscle recovery.

After my half marathon, I wore compression socks for the next few days.  I even wore them to work under my pants with my winter boots. 

Since we have warmer weather & I hope to start running again VERY SOON, I realized that I can’t exactly wear compression socks under my pants with open toed wedges or other summer-time shoes. 

… until I was introduced to compression sleeves.

The new Reflect Compression Leg Sleeves by Zensah offer front and back visibility with 400% more reflectivity than any other compression sleeves on the market. So if you like running during early morning, evening, or dark hour runs, these sleeves will keep you visible! Additional benefits include calf support, shin splint relief, faster recovery, and reduced fatigue.

I really enjoy these sleeves because although they are have pretty tight compression, they don’t hurt if I wear them to bed.  Initially, I thought that since they didn’t cover my feet and they cut off at the ankle, they would be really tight and uncomfortable… but that is not the case!  Sometimes I forget that I even have them on. 

Key Features & Specs

They are available in 5 colors: neon green (as shown above), black, neon pink, neon orange and neon yellow.  You’ll be sure to find a color to match your favorite running skirt Smile

If you’re interested in purchasing Zensah Reflect Compression Leg Sleeves, you can get them from their website for $39.99 a pair.  They come in three sizes:  XS/S, S/M, L/XL.

I want to try these! I would get the pink of course. Question: do you like running skirts? do you normally run in them? I haven’t tried. I actually feel the most comfortable in the compression capri pants. Even more than shorts. Do you recommend any shorts/skirts in particular?

I love running skirts. I typically save them for races though – not for day to day training. I have a few from Running Skirts that I love! You should check them out 🙂

I will! I am always buying workout stuff. I probably have more workout clothes than regular! I went to the Under Armour outlet on Saturday…ahhh. I always want everything there and at Nike.

I don’t wear any, I’m dying for a pair of ProCompression socks. I would get the sleeves in neon pink or black. I’m just interested in seeing how these work.
