"Disclaimer: I received Zensah Compression Sleeves to review as part of being a BibRave Pro. Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador), and check out BibRave.com to review find and write race reviews!"

I had never worn any compression gear until last summer when I was training for the Detroit Marathon.  It felt SO good to put on those socks after a 15, 16, 18 or 20 mile long run!  I had only tried the socks, not the sleeves, so when I was offered the chance to review Zensah compression sleeves, I jumped at the chance.

I chose the bright pink sleeves.  Why not enjoy a little girlie goodness?!

My Zensah arrived and I went to put them on.  Holy smokes are they tight!  When I ordered them I saw a note that advises that the sleeves run small.  I ordered a medium.  They are crazy hard to put on, and I don’t really have large calves.  However, once they are on, I don’t notice they are even on.

I first used them after a half marathon a few weeks ago.  I kicked back on the couch for a few hours and just let them do their job.  Everything felt great.  I also took them out for a walk and felt cute and sporty.  I’m torn whether I prefer socks or sleeves.  The gentle pressure on my feet feels pretty good in socks. But, being that I live in Arizona where it is hotter than the sun, being able to just pop on the sleeves leaves my feet cooler and my body a little cooler in general.  And that is a very good thing!

Bottom line, I would totally recommend Zensah. I will probably pick up a few more colors, like my favorite - orange!   I would just caution anyone with large calves to get the largest size possible. Even getting them off is a chore, but it is worth it :)
