There is an article on this on, I believe, slowtwitch.com. Apparently there is a great deal of science backing it up. I don't think you will see me wearing them anytime soon, but who knows? maybe the days of the short sock are done!
If grandma likes them, they must be good!:>

I guess it was just a matter of time before compression socks threads started to appear.
Since I´m just competing mostly against myself you won´t be seeing me wearing them anytime soon.

The irony is that is took this long to get to triathlon - they have been using them in basketball for years. I have a pair of Skins power sox that i bot while down in Australia for IM this year. I use them for recovery and placebo effect or not I do nmotice a significant difference. I used to have muscle tremors nin my calves frequently. Have not had since.

I know MarkyV found them great for IM distance, but I believe he says he wouldn't wear them for a half or shorter race.

We have a Nike outlet store nearby and I found two pair of Nike 'Baseball' compression socks for $10. Haven't worn them a lot, but for $10 there's nothing to lose.
While doing IMF I observed some people I believe Europeans wearing these compression socks. From what I heard they really do work. They help to prevent or lessen cramping and soreness with long runs. Does anyone have any experience with these socks? They do look nerdy.
