Product testing

The VIPAH™ De-compression socks haven't just appeared overnight. We have completed rigorous testing a every stage of the journey; in the design, fabric selection and manufacture of our garments to ensure maximum performance, without compromising on the supreme comfort and durability. One of the most important tests to date has been the player trials at Rotherham United Football Club, where professional footballers got their hands (or feet) on VIPAH™ socks for the first time. This is a little insight into how the socks have been received.

Measuring & Monitoring Tools Used:

Wellness Questionnaire: We gave each individual player a questionnaire consisting of 10 questions about how they felt post training to pre-training wearing both the normal club sock compared to wearing the Vipah sock. We found self reporting to be one of the best ways to measure compare and contrast results as it is not only a physical emotion but also a physiological emotion that effect an athletes performance level.

Each Player rating was significantly improved  when wearing the Vipah sock equating to the Vipah not only physically improving performance but each Player believed that as a result of wearing the Vipah sock fatigue in the calf muscles took a lot longer to set in which helped improve performance from a psychological perspective.

GPS Heart Rate Variability: Using the EDGE tracking system over the 3 day trial period allowed us to measure the fatigue and lactic acid levels in the players over a fairly short period of time. The metrics system helped us build an overall picture of the validity of wearing the Vipah sock against a standard football sock. Marginal % gains are huge in all sports these days and can often be cited as reasons for a teams or individuals success. Our results showed that when wearing the Vipah sock opposed to the everyday football sock they all Players gain significant advantages in their performance levels and proved to be successful
