TXG NZ Sports Compression Socks (sometimes called Sports Support Socks) are ideal for both casual exercise participants and professional athletes. They improve endurance and efficiency during movement while also reducing the risk of injury and post-exercise recovery time. Wearing these socks during vigorous exercise improves circulation while reducing the microdamage that occurs in the muscles during repetitive, jarring movement. While they do this, they also help to increase oxygen intake in the same area, as well as improve lymphatic function. We've integrated Coolmax high-performance fibers into these socks to ensure that they're breathable and stay dry during vigorous exercise. We've also added extra padding on the soles for added shock absorption and a patented X Pattern to provide support to the ankles. Research has established that this level of compression provides the perfect balance between comfort and swelling prevention in the feet, ankles, and legs during exercise. TXG NZ Sports Compression Socks are available in Moderate compression (15-20 mmHg) and come in WHITE and BLACK. These socks are available in the following sizes:
- XS (ankle 15-17cm & calf 25-32cm)
- S (ankle 18-20cm & calf 26-36cm)
- M (ankle 21-24cm & calf 28-40cm)
- L (ankle 25-28cm & calf 30-44cm)
- XL (ankle 29-33cm & calf 32-48cm)
Benefits of Sports Compression Socks
- Increases blood circulation which increases energy levels, reduces muscle fatigue, and enables enhanced performance
- Snug support of the leg muscles, greatly reducing jarring stresses and microtissue damage that can occur during vigorous exercise.
- Graduated compression over the legs is beneficial for increasing oxygen intake and transfer to muscle cells.
- Reduces recovery time between sporting sessions
- Aids the body's lymphatic pumping action
- Relieves aches, swelling, and tension in the legs.
- Protects against Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) developing
Please consult with your doctor whether compression stockings are suitable for you if the following conditions apply: Sensitive skin, Skin infections, Atopic dermatitis, Neuropathy or Insensitivity, Physical Immobility.

We have one level of compression for you to choose
Moderate Compression Level
15-20mmHg is an ideal compression for the balance of compression effectiveness. This compression range is recommended for:
- People who are sitting or standing for long periods of time
- People who are travelling for long periods by air
- People who have non-swollen varicose veins (spider veins)
- Pregnant women
This compression level can:
- Prevent swelling in legs, ankles and feet
- Alleviate early onset of lower-limb conditions
- Encourage circulatory wellness
- Help prevent blood clots and deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
