Compression sleeve

The Bauerfeind compression sleeve is a fabric sleeve designed to support the ankle during movement. It's made of a compressive knit material that increases sensorimotor feedback, enhances blood circulation, and stimulates metabolism. The design helps reduce ligament strain, activates the foot's stabilizing muscles more quickly, and improves joint coordination.
