Compression tubes are elastic compression sleeves that support the calf muscles during exercise. Unlike compression socks, they only cover the lower legs and not the feet. Herzog PRO Compression Tubes feature a medically approved graduated compression profile that supports blood circulation and stabilises the calf muscles during every training session or competition.

Compression tubes support the calf muscles during exercise and help reduce muscle vibrations. This means the calves feel less fatigued more quickly and are optimally supported during prolonged efforts. Herzog PRO Compression Tubes are widely used by runners and other endurance athletes who want to support their performance and continue to move comfortably.

During running, the calf muscles are subjected to significant stress with each landing. The Herzog PRO Compression Tubes provide targeted compression around the calves and have a decreasing pressure profile from the ankle towards the knee. This reduces muscle vibrations and supports blood circulation, contributing to more comfort during running.

Compression tubes: provide targeted compression on the calves while leaving the foot free. Ideal if you want to continue wearing your own sports socks.

Compression stockings: cover the entire foot and provide extra support to the ankle and Achilles tendon – particularly suitable for recovery after exertion.

Compression tubes can help reduce the strain on the muscles around the shin and calves. While they don't cure an injury, Herzog PRO Compression Tubes can help limit muscle vibrations and support the calf muscles. As a result, many runners with (recurrent) shin splints choose compression tubes as part of their training equipment.

Yes. During exercise, small muscle vibrations constantly occur in the calf muscles. The Herzog PRO Compression Sleeves help reduce these vibrations, allowing the muscles to function more efficiently and tire less quickly. This provides extra comfort during both training sessions and competitions.

Herzog PRO Compression Tubes are designed to be worn during exercise. They provide support during training, competitions, and long endurance sports activities such as running, trail running, and hiking. You do not wear the compression tubes during your recovery. For that, the PRO Compression Socks are more suitable.

A good fit is essential for optimal performance. That's why Herzog PRO Compression Tubes are not only chosen based on shoe size, but also on leg length, ankle and calf circumference. This ensures the tubes fit perfectly and you benefit from the correct compression level without them slipping or pinching.

The Herzog PRO Compression Tubes distinguish themselves through their precise fit, high-quality materials, and medically sound decreasing compression profile. Herzog is also the only sports compression brand in the Netherlands with MDR certification for sports compression. This assures you of a product developed with maximum attention to quality, safety, and sports performance.

The Herzog PRO Compression Tubes are suitable for almost all sports where the calves are heavily strained. They are widely used during running, trail running, hiking, cycling, triathlons, football, field hockey, and other endurance sports. Thanks to the targeted compression, they offer support during both training and competitions and are ideal for athletes who prefer to wear their own sports socks.
