What do compression socks do for hikers?
When it comes to exercise, whether hiking or trail running, the more oxygen your cells receive, the better they will function. It's claimed that compression socks help to circulate blood more efficiently through the legs, which means blood returns to the heart faster.
How do compressions socks benefit hikers?
Compression socks usually have graduated compression, which means they are tighter lower down the leg and looser higher up, or just below the knee.
They are claimed to be designed to help legs battle the effects of gravity by pushing blood back up to the heart. The pressure created by the socks pushes fluid up the leg and therefore increases blood flow to the heart.
The benefit claims include enhanced oxygen delivery; decreased lactic acid; and prevention of cramping.
How long should wear compression socks for?
So long as you've got the right size, they're on correctly and they aren't inhibiting blood flow, then it's fine to wear your compression socks all day. In fact several socks are designed specifically for this purpose, though we suggest you don't actually wear them 24 hours a day. You may find that if you keep them on once you've finished exercise for a few hours (or swap to a clean pair which may be more comfortable) the benefits will continue and they'll help your legs recover faster.
However, you should avoid wearing the same pair more than once without washing as dirt and bacteria can start to build up.
