Unlike the best compression boots, which massage all the muscles in your legs, the Hyperice Normatec Go sleeves (known as Hyperice Normatec Lower Legs in the UK) focus on your calf muscles. This means they’re smaller and more portable than full boots, and in general I found them easier to use.
The compression massage they provide also felt effective in helping to speed up recovery after hard runs, and I enjoyed using the sleeves daily. However, while they are cheaper than full boots such as the Normatec 3 Legs, it’s hard to say the Normatic Go are better value because of their narrow focus on one area of the body.
