Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

We washed the running compression socks before wearing them for the first time. We can therefore confirm that the product retains its original shape after washing at 30 degrees. During the wear test, the product fitted comfortably over the entire foot area without constricting and was easy to put on and take off. The individual size gradations(35-38, 39-42, 43-46) fit very well. The padding ensures a comfortable fit and also prevents blisters from forming. The material also offers optimum temperature regulation. We could clearly feel the compression effect during our test run, during which the compression socks neither slipped nor rubbed. The product also impressed us in terms of comfort when standing for long periods . Overall, our legs felt less heavy than usual. The compression effect was tested by the manufacturer using SAG measurement technology.
