Fact

"As part of our recovery strategy at Manchester United F.C., we have utilised the concept of compression garments. However, none of the other products on the market deliver neither the results nor the scientific rationale that the graded compression socks designed by Compression Advisory have. Moreover, we are very comfortable with the product and have encouraged all 1st team players to utilise the socks for recovery. This was a strategy employed in our Champions League semi Final against Barcelona and in the Final in Moscow."
