    I'm getting ready for a marathon in November and have been getting tight calves. I would like to get a pair of compression socks or calf sleeves from CEP but was wondering which are better to wear for racing.

    Can anyone make a recommendation?

    Thanks

    I wear the sleeves on my longest runs. I don't think they help me perform any better, but they are very comfortable.

    Only problem with the sleeves is that when I take a dump in them, it slides right through.
