5.0 out of 5 stars Shin Relief, March 31, 2010

I was training for a half marathon and developed a nasty case of shin splints. I tried doing the icing thing, did the rest thing, and even bought some tape to provide relief and none helped eliminate the pain. On a whim I purchased this product and am happy to announce I can run again! As other reviewers noted, you can adjust tightness in three different areas and this product offers excellent support. As a bonus I started wearing it to work and it fits under dress slacks. I would highly recommend this product for not only running but daily use as well. It breathes well, easy to use, and most importantly offers great support.

5.0 out of 5 stars Effective and comfortable, October 18, 2009

I am not certain that my symptoms (tingling, some numbness and pain in the upper shin, typically brought on by changing intensity during running) were truly indicative of shin splints; however, I can say that since I've worn this product, I have not experienced the symptoms. I like the guides that sit on either side of the shin bone; that's really what provides the needed pressure. In addition, you can adjust the straps independently according to your desired degree of support at three places along the shin. The whole apparatus is smooth when worn so it wears well under snug workout pants. I recommend washing and/or rinsing it soon after each use to keep the product like new.

5.0 out of 5 stars With some adjustments worked perfectly!, April 30, 2011

The first time I wore these they made the pain worse, I got home packaged them back up to send back to Amazon. I decided to try them one more time. I made them both more loose and wore the one on my right leg (my right leg is worse) right above my ankle bone. The one of my left leg, I wore a couple of inches higher. Sure enough I had no pain in my right leg (the side that is much worse) and pain was still pretty bad on my left leg. (Although not as painful as usual) I stopped and adjusted the left side to match the right side. After a short break I had no pain in either leg! I have been using them ever since and I wish that I would have bought them last year when the pain first started. I would definately experiment with them before deciding that they aren't for you. Just remember not to make them too tight and for me I have to wear them lower on my leg than where I feel the pain at.
