How Does Compression Help On Hikes:
Compression socks for hiking offer the same benefits of medical compression socks. CEP combines the compression technology used for medi’s medical compression garments with additional features suited for the sport of hiking.
Improved circulation: The gradual compression from the ankle to the calf improves circulation and helps transport oxygen and nutrients to your muscles faster. Your legs feel fresh and fatigue less quickly – perfect for long hikes.
Stabilization: Compression socks stabilize muscles and joints, which is a tremendous advantage, especially when hiking on uneven terrain. They reduce muscle vibrations and lower the risk of muscle cramps and injuries.
Perfect stay-put fit: Hiking socks with compression feature a wrinkle-free, snug design that helps prevent blisters and pressure points from forming while you hike.
ALL ADVANTAGES OF THE CEP COMPRESSION HIKING SOCKS AT A GLANCE:
BLISTER PROTECTION
Thanks to their wrinkle-free, compressive fit and premium material, these socks wrap around your foot like a second skin to prevent slipping and provide protection against blisters.
JOINT STABILIZATION
The compressive fit of our socks provides your joints and muscles with optimal support while allowing your legs to feel light and comfortable. Every step is supported through any terrain.
HEAT AND MOISTURE MANAGEMENT
With the use of merino wool, our socks provide warmth in the cold, and keep you cool in the heat. Strategically placed ventilation zones create maximum breathability for cool, dry feet in any weather.

TECH-TALK: HIKING SOCKS WITH COMPRESSION
How does compression help prevent blisters?
Long hikes in particular are an endurance test for body and material, because the permanent friction in the shoe combined with moisture is the ideal fire accelerator for blisters. Thanks to the compression technology, the CEP hiking socks fit the foot like a second skin. At the end of the tour, you are just as comfortable in the evening as you were in the morning. Wrinkling, the main cause of skin irritation, is almost impossible due to the technology.
Why should I wear compression socks instead of conventional socks when hiking?
Compression socks offer you significantly more comfort and protection when hiking compared to conventional hiking socks. The compressive seat promotes blood circulation and ensures light legs for longer. In addition, your joints are stabilized. But that is not all. The innovative medi compression improves your body's self-awareness, in this case your ankles, and increases sure-footedness - which is particularly beneficial in demanding terrain.
Why merino wool in hiking socks?
The CEP COMPRESSION HIKING SOCKS combine the natural climate properties of merino wool with high-quality synthetic fibers for a particularly comfortable fit. When it's cold, they keep your feet warm, and when you're sweating, they wick away moisture effectively, keeping your feet dry and at a comfortable temperature. Another advantage: Merino wool neutralizes odors and is easy to care for.
How do I find the right CEP hiking socks for my hiking boots?
When choosing the right CEP COMPRESSION HIKING SOCKS, you should consider your shoe and your performance level. Hiking shoes or mountaineering boots are available in different categories, which vary depending on the area of use and terrain. The categorization of mountaineering boots is based on the stiffness of the sole, the type of material and the function of the shoe. Within this division, a distinction is made from "A", the simplest category, to "D" as the highest category.
How do I determine the right size for my CEP hiking socks?
A good fit of the hiking socks is crucial for comfort and avoidance of blisters while hiking. Compression socks should not only be tailored to the shoe size, but also to the calf circumference in order to ensure a comfortable pressure and an optimal effect. It is important to make sure that the socks are snug but not dig in, nor are they too loose to avoid wrinkling. If you want to buy your new CEP COMPRESSION HIKING SOCKS online, the size chart will help you find the right size. If you are between sizes, it is advisable to try the smaller size first. It's important to always try new hiking socks on with your hiking boots to ensure they fit perfectly and provide optimal comfort.
