New product was exactly what I expected, so I'm updating my review. Again, these are not ACTIVE stockings. Great for rest and recovery but not meant to stay in place while worn so keep that in mind.Ok, I added these to my compression arsenal this year. I'm a 15 years past ACL surgery and still play soccer two nights a week, about 8 years ago I had a cleanup surgery that resulted in an issue where I am prone to swelling that pools through the lower leg. I would generally wear antiembolism stockings but they were expensive and don't hold up well. My active sport compression is a combination of a calf sleeve and knee sleeve on that leg but I needed, well, something like what this says to wear after games and to bed that gives me solid compression.The good: The product is exactly what I wanted. I can wear around the house and the fit and performance is great, they don't stay up if I'm walking around all day but I don't expect them to do that. I wear to sleep and wake up with them generally in place and minimal post sport swelling. I went to the chart on their website, ordered, and got the large. Black fit great! 5 stars!The bad: The white, purchased a day apart and ordered the same size, don't fit great at all. I mean, clearly much smaller. Like when I wear the black and I look at my quad and thigh, it 'fits' at the top. When I wear the white it 'cuts'. This eventually leads to it rolling. I tried folding it down but its still rolls. Not something that I would have expected at all considering the fabric and the everything seems identical. I have a support call in direct to the manufacturer and will update my review.So my advice, great product, don't throw your packaging away, keep your expectations in line. This is NOT an active use leg sleeve and after looking at the market .. extensively .. I don't think there is such a thing. shame since I want compression on ONE leg! Gah! But for recovery? This product is right there. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Great, One Issue *by A***A on Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2015* After wearing the sleeve during the day two days in a row, by shin and calf pain disappeared. I"m petite so it is a bit long on me, which I don't mind.The one issue that I have with the sleeve is that the top rolls down, which becomes very uncomfortable, and looks bad under tighter clothes. If I pull the sleeve up all the way to my crotch, it doesn't roll down as much. Also, folding the top works great too.I like that it's a recovery sleeve I can walk around the house or sleep in. It's pretty comfortable as long as I smooth it out all the way. If the fabric gathers behind my knee it gets annoying quick.OVERALL: I would recommend this recovery sleeve to any of my fitness instructor friends. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Second by a length and a half *by F***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2016* I tried the 2XU, the Viper and the Asoonyum to comply with a doctor's order for graduated compression in advance of a vein surgery. Both 2XU and Asoonyum were head and shoulders above Viper and both left the standard Rx type, practically women's stockings ones the Doctor ordered well in the dust. 2XU's material was heavier, warmer and more coarse than Asoonyum's and could not be worn stretched over the heel with only the ball of the foot exposed as the Asoonyum could as this caused the area around the ankle to be baggy. Worn at the ankle as designed they were pretty snug and fit well to the thigh, well above the knee. However they were much to tight to wear that high and would roll over, and if pushed down would cause the area around the knee to bunch up. While they are very athletic looking, with a detail of the name printed in color along the front of the ankle as in the photo, I find it hard to imagine that they would stay up for very long as a person ran or rode a bicycle. Overall, they come second to the Asoonyum product but still far better than Viper. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1469204-2xu-recovery-compression-leg-sleeves](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1469204-2xu-recovery-compression-leg-sleeves) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-28*
