## Assos Leg Recovery

The Assos Leg Recovery are long **leg warmers** with **graduated, medical compression** over the entire leg length – developed for noticeably more efficient **recovery** after intense rides. The pressure build-up is specifically calibrated and corresponds to **medical compression class 2** with up to **32 mmHg**, as stated by the manufacturer. The smooth **InfraRed yarns** with high elasticity provide a soft, comfortable fit despite strong support, without chafing. Assos replaces the previous Recovery Socks with this **full-length system** and extends compression from foot to thigh. The seamless **240-needle seamless construction** lies flat and minimizes friction – ideal under casual clothing or a hoodie after training. In our range, this model is available in two variants, so you can comfortably choose your preferred fit.

- **Medical compression class 2 (up to 32 mmHg)** with graduated pressure distribution along the entire leg.
- **Full-length support**: replaces the Recovery Socks and extends support from foot to thigh.
- **InfraRed yarns**: high elasticity, soft on the skin, supports circulation.
- **240-needle seamless construction**: without disruptive seams, flat profile against friction.
- **Material**: 81% polyamide, 19% elastane – robust, form-fitting and easy-care.
- **Two variants** for a precise fit selection in Swiss cycling everyday life.

## Technical Details and Functions

The **graduated compression** is distributed along the musculature so that it increases and decreases at defined points, which can support **venous return**. Assos specifies **class 2 with 32 mmHg**; in the European context, this class typically ranges around **23–32 mmHg**, achieving a noticeable but everyday-suitable support effect. The combination of **InfraRed yarns** and the **seamless 240-needle construction** creates a uniform knit pattern that reduces pressure peaks and pleasantly smooths the contact surface to the skin. Through the **full-length design**, the compression curve remains consistent over calf, knee and thigh, which is particularly appreciated after hard intervals or long Alpine passes. At the same time, the high elasticity ensures that the leg warmer remains form-stable while still being worn discreetly under everyday clothing. The material blend of polyamide and elastane promotes quick drying and reliable recovery even after frequent washing.

## Applications and Benefits

The Leg Recovery leg warmers are aimed at road, gravel and MTB riders who want to optimize their **recovery time** between training sessions. According to current meta-analyses, **compression garments** can moderately support recovery after demanding sessions, for example through reduced muscle soreness and faster restoration of strength and power within the first 24–48 hours. For everyday use, this means: after intense intervals, long base rides or when traveling, legs can be kept noticeably "lighter" without sacrificing comfort. Thanks to **graduated, medical compression**, the model is particularly suitable for the phase after cooling down – in the team bus, home office or when walking to the bakery. Those who regularly complete multi-day events or training blocks benefit from the consistent support over the entire leg length. Research emphasizes small to moderate effects – this is exactly where Assos targets with defined **class 2 compression** and full-length construction.

## Additional Info on Fit and Application

The Leg Recovery fit **close to the body** without constricting, and are designed so they barely show under joggers, jeans or rain pants. Thanks to the **seamless** construction, there are no hard edges, making extended use easier – for example after training, on the return journey by train or during a workday with lots of sitting. The material feels **ultra-soft** and remains elastic even after several washes, preserving the compression curve. For choosing the right variant, you can orient yourself to your usual Assos sizing logic; if unsure, we recommend the tighter option for more athletic support. The piece is also easy-care: cold wash, no fabric softener, air dry – this keeps the fit stable. In Swiss cycling everyday life, this is an uncomplicated tool that you can incorporate into your routine several times a week as needed.
