I just started a running routine and had gotten shin splints so I decided to try the McDavid compression sleeves and so far they have helped. It doesn't prevent me from getting them but they are not as painful as before. I would deffinately recommend this product.
The product performs as promised. I have a lot of problems with shin splints and need compression support while running and afterwards to prevent swelling and pain. I immediately started feeling the benefits after using these. Some people commented that they're difficult to remove, but I didn't have that issue. Your legs will sweat with them on, so be sure to wash them frequently.
I heard good things about this sleeve and it was cheap, so I bought it. I do suffer from shin splints, but on days when I run wear this out. It offers a good amount of compression and support. I plan on wearing it to some future races as well. I'll be going back to get a second one for between washings, my only complaint about this product is that it is quite warming, just wearing it around for non-exersize type activities will make my leg sweat.
I have been having problems with shin splints &it does seems to help when I wear these supports to run with, without them it is almost impossible.holds heat in and keeps legs warm, little trick to get off ,but with a little patience they do come off! Well worth the money they cost,but not really even a bad price...anything to help my legs!
I bought new shoes, new arch inserts, thicker socks and still had issues with my shin splints while running. Finally after scouring the web for solutions I came across these and it's been well worth the purchase. I even got to the point where I didn't need to where them. No more pain!
