    Why and when would you wear these? I've been running for a few years and have never seen these. I'm not a competitive runner mind you and have minimum equipment requirements. (ipod and a pair of good shoes)

    Hi Angel T, I have great running shoes but really suffering with a slight varicose vein in one leg. I read a few articles online that suggested compression socks.

    Thanks everyone else for replying, Ill take a look at this brand now.

    They help to get the blood flowing in your legs.
