Who doesn’t love cute socks?\u00a0 And aren’t these socks cute?\u00a0 Well, they’re more than just cute, they’re amazing compression socks!<\/p>\n

Lily Trotters<\/a> is a great little company with a great product.\u00a0 We all know that athletes of all kind like compression socks, either for wearing during a workout, for recovery, or even when you’re on an airplane.\u00a0 But compression socks are so often so very boring.\u00a0 From what I’ve found, the cute ones aren’t all that great in terms of compression.\u00a0 Lily Trotters is working to change all that.<\/p>\n

I was sent a pair of adorable Lily Trotters socks to try out, and I can’t recommend them enough.\u00a0 The founder, Susan, has been great to communicate with.\u00a0 I admit, I was skeptical.\u00a0 I have giant calves.\u00a0 I like to pretend they’re solid muscle, but well… Either way, compression socks are hard to find.\u00a0 Frequently, they’re way too small on me, or they’re so stretched that any cute factor is gone.\u00a0 I end up with boring men’s sizes and colors.\u00a0 But even though my shoe size and height indicate that I should wear a S\/M, Susan sent me the L\/XL, and oh my goodness, these things are awesome.\u00a0 They fit perfectly, and look cute too.\u00a0 The pair I was sent isn’t being made as part of the first run, but I think the Om pattern in blue is super adorable too.<\/p>\n

\"CHf8KCDWwAA0ush\"<\/a>I’ve worn mine after all three of my most recent triathlons and I can honestly say that they’re some of the best compression socks I’ve worn.\u00a0 They’re comfortable and cute.\u00a0 I would definitely wear these in public, which is certainly not the case with a lot of compression gear.\u00a0 (I mean, I’m no fashion plate, so I wear compression gear in public, but I know I’m not making the best impression.)<\/p>\n

If you are a lady with curvier legs and have struggled to find good compression socks, these are definitely for you.\u00a0 Not to worry, smaller calved ladies, you are set too.\u00a0 Thank goodness for size options!<\/p>\n

\"89593f592b971f974ec5ae4734887489_original\"<\/a>Lily Trotters is entering their final days<\/a> of their Kickstarter campaign, and while they’ve already made their goal, now is a great time to get in on a pair or two for yourself!\u00a0 Quality compression socks are expensive, but for only $37, you can support this great company and get yourself a pair from this first run.\u00a0 They’re going to be more expensive once they’re on the market this fall, so consider getting a pair or two or three NOW.\u00a0 You won’t regret it.<\/p>\n

Of course, which pair(s) will you choose?<\/p>\n

Disclaimer: I was sent a pair of Lily Trotters socks to try out, but the comments are my own.\u00a0 I am a backer of their Kickstarter and really love these socks.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
