There are many good reasons to do outdoor sports: It's a great way to stay physically fit, enjoy nature and improve your overall well-being.

Bauerfeind Sports has used its many years of expertise in the field of medical aids to develop an outdoor collection with sports bandages and versatile sports socks with calf compression and short sock variants with compression to ensure that the enjoyment of the outdoor experience is not spoiled by muscular complaints or joint problems.

Bauerfeind AG is one of the world's leading manufacturers of medical aids. Founded in 1929, products such as supports, orthoses, compression stockings and orthopedic insoles have been making an important contribution to maintaining and restoring the health of many people for decades. In addition, intensive cooperation with numerous sports associations and top athletes has helped to further develop this medical knowledge for specific sports and open up new areas of application. In 2016, Bauerfeind launched the sports line 'Bauerfeind Sports'. It aims to help athletes achieve their best performance, reduce strain, prevent injuries and promote recovery.

Step into Adventure: outdoor products for knee and ankle joints as well as versatile sports socks

Outdoor sports in nature help to reduce stress, strengthen muscles and the immune system and, above all, are a lot of fun. However, outdoor sports such as mountain hiking or trail running put a lot of strain on the knee and ankle joints or calf muscles, especially when running downhill. At the same time, you have to be able to rely on your own body to safely master challenging situations on the mountain.

People with joint problems therefore often give up these activities. They feel too insecure and don't want to take any risks. But that doesn't have to be the case. Compression products - whether supports or socks - offer outdoor sports enthusiasts valuable support. This is because compression has a positive effect on neuromuscular stabilization.

With the development of sports-specific supports for the knee and ankle - the Outdoor Knee Support and the Outdoor Ankle Support - Bauerfeind offers a medically tested and effective solution to reduce joint pain. "With the development of the Outdoor Knee Support, we have integrated our many years of expertise in the production of high-quality and demonstrably effective medical products into the outdoor sports market so that outdoor enthusiasts can realize their full potential," explains Christian Naujoks from Bauerfeind Sports.

For hiking, Bauerfeind Sports offers the Outdoor Merino Socks with calf compression and a short mid-cut version, with both versions characterized by a high proportion of merino wool. Here too, wool ensures a high level of comfort, excellent heat regulation and moisture transport.

Bauerfeind Sports developed Trail Run Compression Socks with increased compression in the ankle area especially for trail running in collaboration with professional trail runners. This increases the feeling of stability, which promotes a safe and smooth stride. These sports socks are available in a long version with calf compression and a shorter mid-cut version.

Innovative knee support for full outdoor enjoyment

The innovative Outdoor Knee Support helps outdoor enthusiasts with knee problems continue to enjoy the great outdoors. The unique construction of merino compression knit, omega pad and individually adjustable strap, known as the Downhill Relief System, stabilizes the knee joint and patellar tendon and relieves stress. Medical compression also promotes neuromuscular stabilization. To ensure a high level of comfort, Bauerfeind uses a knitted fabric of undyed, mulesing-free merino wool and durable polyamide. Merino wool provides excellent warmth and moisture transport by actively absorbing moisture from the body and transporting it to the outside. The polyamide adds durability. This combination of merino wool and a flat knit with functional elements is unique.

For more sure-footedness: Outdoor Ankle Support

Ankle problems typically have a negative impact on the outdoor experience and well-being in the mountains. Hikes that require a certain level of sure-footedness can quickly become a burden and turn leisure activities into torture. The Outdoor Ankle Support supports and relieves the ankle joint by promoting neuromuscular stabilization through the compression knit. Here too, Bauerfeind uses merino wool and polyamide, with the core of the Core Yarn Technology consisting of merino wool wrapped in polyamide. The result is a highly functional combination of durability and long-lasting comfort.

More compression socks for skiing

The outdoor portfolio of Bauerfeind Sports is rounded off by a sport-specific selection of socks. In winter 2023, Bauerfeind Sports will launch new compression socks for alpine skiing and ski touring. The compression in the calf area increases the efficiency of the calf muscles, while specific padded zones reduce the pressure load in the ski boot. The high proportion of merino wool keeps feet warm and dry.
