KANSAS CITY, KA (February 23, 2016)—Therafirm, a manufacturer known for making high quality compression socks and hosiery, released an addition to its new brand, TheraSport, which already features gradient compression athletic performance and recovery socks. New addition, TheraSport Athletic Leg Sleeves round out a line known for being engineered to improve circulation and provide more energy for greater endurance, enhanced performance and a speedy recovery.
While the medical benefits of compression have been known for some time, the benefits of compression for athletes have generated a lot of attention recently. Athletes that wear athletic compression garments may experience less delayed onset muscle soreness, less fatigue, improved performance, less swelling post-competition and faster recovery. Gradient compression, which is compression that is greatest at the ankle and gradually decreases as it moves toward the knee, is known to improve blood flow from the ankle to the heart. This increased blood flow may improve oxygenation and enhance athletic performance.
TheraSport Athletic Performance and Recovery Leg Sleeves, as well as the previously released socks, from TheraSport are breaking the athletic compression mold. Not only do they offer the wearer the true gradient athletic compression, but they also have a number of other benefits that make them ideal for today’s most serious professional and amateur athletes or anyone who prefers a sports style compression leg sleeve or sock.
TheraSport sleeves are made with a super soft and lightweight material for exceptional comfort. A comfortable band provides a non-binding grip to help the socks stay up. High tech, moisture wicking yarns, as well as breathable mesh paneling and moisture-wicking fibers keep legs cool and odor under control. In addition to the athletic sock colors, black, white, red, blue and pink, TheraSport Leg Sleeves will also feature new color, lime.
TheraSport leg sleeves will be available through retailers and online partners beginning March 2016. TheraSport socks are currently available.
