FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Here you can find frequently asked questions, we help you to find the answer

PRODUCTS

I am not sure about the size to select, can you help?

For the socks and the non-compressive products: select your regular size.

For the compressive products: When you find yourself between two sizes, always choose the larger size. Don't worry! You will still experience compression benefits. Indeed, during exercise, your muscles swell, and your size should account for a certain margin to avoid a tourniquet effect and thus cutting off blood circulation.


What are the Compressport top's different cuts?

For our tops, we offer three different cuts:

  • Regular: DESIGNED TO BE WORN IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, STRAIGHT CUT
  • Adjusted: DESIGNED TO BE WORN CLOSE TO THE BODY
  • Ergo: DESIGNED TO FIT LIKE A SECOND SKIN

What are the differences between the Oxygen range and the other products?

Our Oxygen range offers products more ventilated thanks to 360° ventilation bands which evacuate sweat and humidity faster. This range was specially created to adapt to hot and humid environments.


Are your products tested before being commercialized?
Before our products are brought to market, they undergo comprehensive testing by our Research & Development department at the EPSI platform in Besançon, under the direction of Dr. Arnaud Ménétrier. Scientific tests are conducted on our Compressport athletes to enhance and/or refine our products before they are released for sale.

How to wash the Compressport products?

In general, we recommend washing our products with care: either by hand or in a washing machine using a gentle cycle with a maximum temperature of 30°C.


What are the benefits of the venous-muscular compression?

We offer two different kinds of compression in order to support you during all your activities:

• During the effort
Compression acts like a muscular support during effort:

- It limits vibrations up to 33%
- It absorbs chocks impacted by the ground
- It diminishes the injury risks by 29%
- It improves the proprioception – the body position’s perception

• On recovery
At rest (before or after an exercise), compression acts on the skin, the muscles, and the veins to:

- Help to purge toxines
- Increase muscular oxygenation between 15 to 25%
- Increase blood flow up to 15%
- Reduce muscular injury and sore muscles by 50%
- Help the muscle to recover faster


What are the compression classes of the Compressport products?

Our compressive products are part of the three first medical compression classes, measured in mmHg (millimeter of mercury):

• Classe 1 : between 10 to 15 mmHg

• Classe 2 : between 15 to 20 mmHg

• Classe 3 : between 20 to 36 mmHg
