What do STOX Energy Socks do?

Our graduated compression profile hugs your muscles to help them feel energized. Specific elevated fabric pressure up the legs increases blood flow, pushing deoxygenated blood back up to the heart and lymph nodes to improve overall circulation. The removal of lactic acid from enhanced circulation reduces swelling, muscle soreness, and promotes faster muscle recovery.

How do STOX Energy Socks help?

Our medical grade compression socks work to improve functional recovery and reduce oxidative stress. Faster oxygen delivery gives you less muscle fatigue and more energy for a high-intensity workout.

Why do athletes wear STOX Energy Socks?

To elevate their athletic performance and reduce post-workout soreness. Graduated compression therapy helps to oxygenate cells and to clear lactate build-up from the bloodstream.

STOX Energy Socks give you the support and confidence to perform the way you want. Our graduated compression technology helps you level up – whether that’s a faster time, a longer run, or a more comfortable and productive day.

Class 2 compression stockings, also known as compression socks class 2, have a pressure range of 23–32 mmHg. This pressure is higher than that of class 1 (light compression, 18–21 mmHg) and lower than class 3 (strong compression, 34–46 mmHg). Therefore, they fall into the therapeutic compression category: strong enough to treat medical indications but also suitable for preventive use.

The difference with light travel socks or sports socks? Class 2 provides noticeably more pressure and supports the veins in the lower leg to aid the return of blood to the heart. This reduces swelling, relieves symptoms, and helps prevent complications such as varicose veins or edema.

Beyond medical applications, class 2 compression stockings are popular with active users: athletes, people with standing jobs, or travelers. Thanks to the combination of medical effectiveness and modern design, STOX compression stockings are both practical and stylish. You benefit from serious compression without sacrificing comfort or appearance.

This ensures that your stockings are comfortable to wear, even for extended periods.
