So far, so good.
Item arrived as advertised and in excellent condition. On Amazon the seller says, "OPTIMAL SIZING: These calf sleeves are suitable for men and women ranging from 5'2" to 6' in height with calf size (thick part of calves) between 12-16.5 inches. Important: Calf size is the KEY measurement for the best fit (wait for our XL range if you have larger calves)." I am 5'6" and have a 14" calf. These sleeves fit well and offer good compression, they are a bit hard to get on at first (that's the point, I know) and if you have a large ankle you will probably experience some difficulty getting these on as the ankle portion of the sleeve is quite small. I have used these sleeves a total of 3 times since they arrived, on two bike rides and on one run. I ride without clip in shoes or toe clips and do quite a bit of hill climbing, so I was experiencing some calf discomfort at the end of my ride. These sleeves seem to help with that so far, so I would call that a win. When I run (mostly on pavement unfortunately...) I sometimes experience shin discomfort (bordering on shin splints) so I thought I would give these a whirl and see if they help with that as well. I have only run with them on one time, so I can't say for sure yet, but they do seem to help a little bit so I am optimistic that they will help with future runs. Overall good product, I didn't give five stars because I haven't had them long and I don't know how well they are going to hold up.

Saved my running routine!
I ran hurdles back in high school and got stress fractures and shin splints during one season. I stopped running afterward because if flare-ups with my shin splints.I decided that after a decade of not running I would try training for a 5k. After 4 running sessions my shins hurt so bad I thought I would have to call it quits. Then I found these.I can't say that they have been a miracle, but the compression helps make running bearable, even enjoyable at times. They work like they are supposed to.My only complaints would be that the are really hard to get on and off because the ankle part is so tight, something more elastic would help on the bottom. Also, I run at night, so having more reflective material on the front and back would be a major benefit.

Husband Wore Calf Compression Sleeves For 16 Hours
My husband owns a couple of calf compression sleeves. He works as a part time personal trainer and teaches kickboxing and MMA classes. He has used compression socks, compression elbow sleeves, and other compression products. He wore this Endurance Shield 360 calf compression sleeve yesterday for over 16 hours. He indicated that it worked okay; but, it did not compress his calves like other calf compression sleeves. He works out everyday, sometimes multiple times a day, so he definitely needs compression sleeves for different parts of his body. He used these calf compression sleeves to work out and while working his full time job too.Overall, he indicated that he liked the material and it was not very difficult to put on like other calf compression sleeves; but, that he did not see much difference during and after his workout, etc.I hope this review has been helpful to you and I attached a few pictures.I received this product at a discount; but, I always leave a honest and unbiased review and opinion.

Good compression and comfort for runners at a cheaper price point
I've tried out a few pairs of calf compression sleeves recently for running. My go to are the Zensah's Zensah Compression Leg Sleeves, Black, Small/Medium , but they are significantly more expensive than the Endurance Shield 360's. With that said, you can immediately see the build quality difference between the two and material. However, the compression levels are comparable as well as comfort. While the Endurance Shields might not hold up as long, at this price point, they are still worth a buy. Although, with the logo on the front, I keep getting asked if i'm wearing Transformer socks. Ha.

Used until I could no longer
:I heard good things about compression sleeves so I decided to try with this product.I'm 5'6 with calves that are 15 1/2 inches.I really loved these at first. My calves love to bounce when I run but these kept them in place.My favorite part of about these sleeves was that it helped ease the pain from shin splits during my runs.Although, the white stitching would leave impressions on my skin.I wore these sleeves 3-4 times a week during my runs.Lasted for 5 months, before they started falling apart.Not bad since compression garments have a life expectancy of 3-6 months.

Good for what it does but with poor quality
I normally felt the pain in my shins (both legs) after the second miles on treadmill (speed 7 to 7.5 mph). After trying it on, I haven't felt the pain on both shins and I can run longer 4 to 5 miles with the same speed. I have been using it daily. After 2 weeks of use, I saw the threads start to come out at the narrow end of both sleeves.The sleeves work great for what were designed to do but the quality isn't that good. I don't think they will last very long when showing early sign of degradation.

Good
I am 5 ft 8 in tall and these are a very good length. For someone that is taller, they appear to be adjustable if you just stretch & pull them a bit. Overall ,these worked pretty well. There is good compression but since I have not washed them as of yet, I hope they do not shrink because it seems that if that happened these might almost be unwearable because they would be too tight. Overall good purchase. You want compression, and these will certainly do that.

I LOVE THESE! I have several pair from different manufacturers ...
I LOVE THESE! I have several pair from different manufacturers but these offer the best compression by far. I have had 3 major back surgeries and a fractured left tib/fib being casted for nearly nine months. I have had serious problems with calf cramps and spasms that are so debilitating that they bring me to tears. Since wearing these compression sleeves...and that includes for 2-3 hours after the activity...I have not suffered ONE cramp...not one! That is incredible. Just yesterday I mowed both the front and back grass...without them. I suffered severe spasms and cramps once again. Coincidence, I think not. I have nothing but high praise for these and when I can I will buy two more pair. Anyone considering buying these, should. You will not be disappointed.
