A large-scale study on Herzog socks yields remarkable results
A large-scale study among nearly 800 users confirms what Herzog Medical has been advocating for over 20 years. The use of compression socks by athletes contributes positively to performance in various areas. The athlete recovers faster, experiences fewer injuries, and often trains completely injury-free again. Never before has a study on compression socks been conducted among such a large group of athletes. Following this user study, the University Medical Center Utrecht, sports medicine cluster, initiated a scientific study into the background of the effectiveness of Herzog PRO Sport Compression Socks. These research results will be published shortly. Below you will find some remarkable results that Herzog Medical is particularly proud of.
What distinguishes Herzog?
Herzog Medical is the absolute leader in the field of compression in sports. Herzog has been involved with this theme since 2000. In those early days, knee-high socks were still a very strange sight. This quickly changed as the positive effects of Herzog socks were shared purely by word-of-mouth with fellow athletes. The market for this product grew explosively and Herzog Medical established its name.
Herzog's PRO Sport Compression Socks distinguish themselves in many ways. For example, they offer relatively high compression and the unique pressure gradient - 30mmHg at the bottom of the calf, decreasing to 23mmHg below the knee - ensures optimal performance. Also unique is the measurement of the leg at no less than six points, which guarantees a precise fit.
Demographic data of respondents:
The positive effect of Herzog PRO Sport Compression Socks appeals to a wide spectrum of target groups. The distribution of male and female respondents is 40% versus 60%, with the largest group falling into the 25 to 54 age category. Among runners, distances of up to 20 kilometers are mainly covered, but the marathon is also popular among those surveyed. The participants in the study also practice, in addition to running: cycling, korfball, tennis, volleyball, handball, and football.
