At Thirty48, we design socks with one goal in mind: help runners go farther, feel better, and recover faster. Compression socks aren’t just a trend — when used correctly, they’re a practical tool for performance and recovery. 

Who benefits most from Compression Socks?

Compression socks are especially beneficial for:

• Half marathon and marathon runners

• Runners with high weekly mileage

• People who stand for long periods

• Runners with plantar fasciitis or arch discomfort

  If you’re pushing distance or training volume, compression becomes a support system — not a luxury.

Common Runner Questions

Do compression socks help during races?

Many runners notice better leg stability and less fatigue in the later miles, especially during half and full marathons.

Are compression socks too warm for summer running?

Not when designed with breathable, moisture-wicking yarns. Compression and ventilation can — and should — coexist.

Thirty48 Take

If running is part of your routine and not just an occasional activity, compression socks designed specifically for runners can make a meaningful difference in comfort and recovery.
