CEP - Compression socks and sleeves for running

German compression socks and sleeves to run farther and recover faster


CEP: compression expertise applied to running

CEP is a brand of medi, the German compression specialist. It brings that know-how to runners with running socks and compression sleeves designed in Germany with circular knitting technology.

Core Run Mid Cut socks

The Core Run Mid Cut are a versatile essential for every run. Their targeted compression and close fit give a stable hold and help reduce the friction that causes blisters. Anatomical cushioning absorbs impact and a 3D non-slip surface improves grip inside the shoe.

Core Run Tall compression socks

The Core Run Tall come up to just below the knee. Their 3D circular compression supports blood flow, reduces muscle vibration and helps cut fatigue on long runs.

Core Run calf sleeves

The Core Run compression calf sleeves give the calf the support of compression while letting you pick your own socks. Ideal for runners who like compression without wearing tall socks.

Compression: during or after effort?

Wear compression while running to limit muscle vibration and support the calf, or afterwards to help recovery. Pick your size based on the calf circumference in the CEP size chart to get effective compression.

Caring for compression socks

Wash your CEP socks and sleeves after each use so they keep their elasticity and compression level. Skip fabric softener and high heat, which wear out elastic fibres faster. Well cared for, they keep their support season after season. If you run often, a second pair lets you rotate while the other one dries.
