The Running Essentials I Can't Live Without, From Fuel to Recovery Tools

Bombas Performance Compression Sock 3-Pack ($120)

I love that these compression socks climb all the way up to the knee and provide support with a maximum squeeze all day long post-run. I tend to slip them on after a long run, right before rolling out and stretching. At the end of the day, when I take them off, I feel as though I've just released my calves from a 12-hour massage. When my knee is bothering me, I opt for these longer socks, but I also depend on ZenToes Plantar Fasciitis Compression Socks ($16) to promote circulation in that area specifically when I feel my residual pain creeping back in. You can even layer! In my opinion, the more compression the better, as long as it isn't painful.
