AMP

Most no-show socks offer minimal support. The AMP, however, is a no-show compression sock, featuring Apolla's patented compression zone technology for targeted support of your plantar fascia and ankles.

This means we put our high compression zones of 20-30 mmHg (millimeters of mercury...not the bad stuff, it is just a value to measure the squeeze on your leg) and we place them where the outer ligaments insert on the outer ankle that are most vulnerable to rolls and sprains. Making it so there is actually some support on the ankle vs your cheaper, average no show sock.

PLUS you get the pain relief of plantar fasciitis socks with our patented compression technology to lift and stabilize the plantar fascia in key insertion points of the arch, all in a discreet, hidden design.

The AMP is also made in the USA with high-quality, durable materials, so they last much longer than typical athletic socks or no-show socks.

Absolutely! The AMP profile is a fantastic support sock choice for cheerleaders. We have knit-in cushioning that has been shown in studies to reduce force and targeted compression arch support.

Both of these features along with our targeted ankle compression helps reduce foot fatigue, reduce impact through all the joints and muscles, and provide extra stability during jumps and stunts.

However, we highly recommend that cheerleaders consider wearing The Performance Crew style during practice as it provides MORE brace-like ankle support where the overuse injuries occur most. Then wear the no-show for competition or performance.

Plus, The Joule our barefoot profile can be used for performance as it has a "brace" profile and is often allowed on competition or performance stage to add more support to the ankle.

Many cheerleaders have even found that wearing the AMP helps reduce the risk of ankle injuries and reduces recovery time after intense practices or competitions.

For even more support, or to enhance recovery, we recommend they wear The Infinite Sock mid calf or our The Endurance knee high compression sock.

Through our patented design, The AMP achieves ankle support through a combination of targeted compression zones and a snug, anatomical fit.

This means we put our high compression zones of 20-30 mmHg (millimeters of mercury...not the bad stuff, it is just a value given to measure the squeeze on your leg) and we place them where the outer ligaments insert on the outer ankle that are most vulnerable to rolls and sprains.

Making it so there is actually some support on the ankle vs your cheaper, average no show sock.

While it may not provide the same level of support as our higher-profile of socks, the AMP enhances stability and helps reduce the risk of rollovers.

Many customers with previous ankle injuries say the AMP gives them the confidence they need to stay active.

We like to say that all of Apolla Socks are the "Goldilocks" of padded socks...not too thick, not too thin, but juuuuust right!

The AMP's knit in energy absorption is a padded sock that has studies backing the efficacy to reduce force.

The comfy design won't make your sneakers, athletic or cheer shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable, and the no-show cut stays in the profile of your tennis shoe. It provides just the right amount of cushioning without sacrificing your style.

No! That is another bonus perk to Apolla's no show...they stay put!

The AMP no-show compression sock is designed to in profile of any type of shoe, but they won't slip down into your shoe like all other cheap no show socks do.
