## Assos Kompressor Socks

The Assos Kompressor Socks combine **medical compression** with an ultra-lightweight, breathable construction for athletic use on road bikes. The graduated compression runs from the ankles to the cuff and is designed to promote **blood circulation** during rides – not just during rest periods. Thanks to seamless **240-needle construction** and thin yarns, the socks conform to the foot with minimal friction. We stock them in three variants and they're aimed at anyone who rides performance-oriented on Swiss roads and mountain passes.

- **25 mmHg** InfraRed yarn for **Class II compression** with graduated pressure distribution
- **Seamless** construction for friction-free comfort in shoes
- **16 cm** high cuff for stable hold on the lower leg
- Ultra-lightweight and **breathable** for racing use and hot summer days
- Foot area with the same compressive yarns as Assos **Recovery Socks**
- Material blend: **64% Polyamide, 19% Polyester, 17% Elastane**
- Size range **0 to III** for precise fit

## Technical Details and Functions

The heart of the Kompressor Socks is the **InfraRed yarn** with 25 mmHg, which delivers defined, medically classified compression and works in a graduated pattern along the leg. The **240-needle construction** ensures a very fine knit structure, high breathability and minimised friction in tight road cycling shoes. The **16 cm** high cuff extends the compression zone over the lower leg and keeps the socks reliably in place. The seamless design creates even pressure distribution without disruptive transitions or chafing points. The socks are composed of **64% Polyamide, 19% Polyester and 17% Elastane** – a blend that combines support, recovery and quick drying.

## Applications and Benefits

The Kompressor Socks show their strengths particularly during **competitions**, long mountain passes and intensive intervals, when stability and circulation are crucial. The graduated **compression** can promote the feeling of lighter legs and thus supports consistent performance on long Swiss climbs. At the same time, the wearing climate remains pleasant thanks to the fine, airy knit structure, even when temperatures rise. In everyday training, they convince through rapid moisture wicking and a firm but non-constricting fit in the shoe. Anyone looking for an athletic sock with noticeable support gets a focused solution here without unnecessary extras.

Further Notes on Fit and Selection

For optimal **fit**, sizes **0 to III** are available; choose according to foot length and calf circumference so that the **graduated compression** sits correctly. Wear the socks smooth without wrinkles so that pressure is evenly distributed and no friction occurs. Thanks to the elastic yarn, the foot area conforms while the cuff holds the lower leg stable. Combined with close-fitting road cycling shoes, the socks remain dimensionally stable and dry quickly again after sweat-inducing climbs. Anyone who uses **Recovery Socks** in between benefits from a similar yarn feel on the foot, but with stronger compression specifically for recovery.
