you think its best to wear them for maximum recovery?

also they do have a big effect on DOMS so reduce the mornig after effect of a big breakthrough session

I must say though as a post race thing I find them brilliant. I tend to suffer from a bit soreness in my achilles at certain points throughout the season but once I have the compression socks on they seem to contract the calf through the compression which relieves the tension on the achilles, aiding a quicker recovery.
The technical blurb also suggests that they improve circulation and decrease swelling, which all goes towards the speedy repair of tired and damaged muscle fibres.
