We dedicate this page to those who enjoy geeking out with us a little & digging into the theory, science, and research-based design behind Apolla Socks. We dive into why they are the best compression socks on the market...and why they just, WORK!
What It Does:
Why It Matters:
This unique approach provides a multitude of benefits:
Biotensegrity suggests that a balance of tension and compression forces maintains the body's structure, distributing these forces throughout the interconnected network of muscles, fascia, and bones (Bordoni et al., 2018; Bordoni et al.,
This intricate web of interconnectedness means that forces applied to one area of the body can influence and transmit to other areas (Tadeo et al., 2014).
Apolla's light compression, by gently stimulating sensory receptors and influencing the tension within the fascial system, might contribute to improved neuromuscular coordination and, consequently, more efficient movement patterns and force production. (Chai Lian et al., 2020).

Why were they given this distinction? We created an earth-friendly, premium sock, that gives you the benefit of a shoe combined with the comfort of a sock.
Foot injuries occur frequently in dancers, and researchers have investigated different protective measures to reduce their incidence. Research has primarily focused on ballet, but foot injuries also are common in modern and contemporary dance where footwear is not worn. While padded dance socks are a potential solution, the extent to which they provide force reduction for the feet is unknown.
Purpose: This study investigates the extent to which padded dance support socks can reduce force on the foot during a dance sequence and when landing from a sauté jump.
Methods: Twenty-one injury-free dancers (2 M, 19 F; age: 21.5 ± 6.7 years; height: 165.5 ± 6.1 cm; mass: 68.6 ± 15.0 kg) volunteered for this randomized, cross-over design study. Participants per- formed a 40-second modern dance sequence and a sauté jump landing under two conditions: wearing Apolla Performance Shock™ dance socks (DS) and with bare feet (BF).
Perfect for any genre of dance, in dance shoes, or replacing dance shoes. They are ideal for reducing overuse injury risk, and recovering from injury. Don't forget we have the option to make them grip socks too!
Pavement-pounders, desk job desperados, and on-your-feet pros—modern life demands a lot from our bodies. Many people experience leg fatigue that comes from varicose veins, edema, or blood clots. We help your legs feel invigorated and give you more endurance for those long days!
A dedication to exercising can put a lot of strain and stress on the body, but by simply switching your socks, you can help elevate your athletic performance, avoid injury, and reduce muscle soreness after your workout. They are made with a special high-quality yarn making them anti-stink and moisture wicking socks. So they dry quickly between use and don't get stinky as easily as regular socks.
Post-workout, many athletes experience a temporary reduction in athletic performance, caused by muscle fatigue, delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), shin splints, edema, and various minor injuries.
Apolla Socks are for anyone with feet! Whether you're hitting the trails, lifting weights, or dominating the court, wearing compression socks provides the support, stability, and recovery boost you need to perform at your peak.
Apolla Socks' targeted compression helps to speed up recovery time after ankle injuries like sprains or surgery by reducing swelling and promoting blood flow.
