TORQ Legs
TORQ Legs
Full-leg air compression boots. Twenty minutes, sitting down.
You zip them on, set the mode on the handheld controller, and the chambers inflate in order from the foot upward, hold, release, and go again for a twenty-minute cycle. Then it stops on its own.
What's actually in it
- Air — chambers that inflate in sequence from the foot up, both legs at once, foot to upper thigh. Not a calf cuff.
- Three modes and three pressure levels, set on a handheld controller with a display. No app, no Bluetooth, no account, nothing to update.
- 20-minute cycle, then it switches itself off.
- Mains powered with an Australian plug, and the controller runs on a lead. This is a sit-down-on-the-couch device, not something you walk around in.
- No heat and no LEDs in the boots. That's the Knee and the Back.
Straight up about what this is
It is a leg compression massager, not a fifteen-hundred-dollar clinic machine. Fewer chambers, a narrower pressure range and a wired controller instead of an app. If you are a professional athlete, buy the expensive one. If you finish a shift or a long run and want twenty minutes of a slow squeeze up the leg while you sit through the footy, this does that.
It is also about a 3 kg parcel, so a change-of-mind return costs real postage rather than satchel money. We would rather you knew that now than at the post office.
Will it fit?
One long size, which suits roughly 165 cm to 190 cm in height, with generous thigh room. Shorter than that and the top chamber sits high on the thigh, which is fine. Much taller and the boots stop short of the top of the leg. Measure around the widest part of your thigh, standing and relaxed, and email us if you're not sure.
Who it's for
Concreters, plumbers, nurses, hospo, warehouse pickers, and anyone who spends ten hours a day upright. Weekend runners and riders too.
Who it isn't for: don't use it if you have a blood clot or DVT, heart failure, open wounds, or if you're pregnant. Check with your GP first if you're unsure.
Delivery and returns, in plain words
Free shipping worldwide, no minimum spend. Dispatched in 1–2 business days and tracked, and usually 7–12 business days to metro addresses.
What's in the box
- One pair of TORQ Legs boots, the controller unit, an Australian power adapter and a quick-start card.
Where it comes from
TORQ is Australian-owned and based on the Gold Coast. Our gear is made by our manufacturing partner in Asia and posted direct to you. That is a real part of why it is A$249 and not three or four times that. Queensland is our returns address, not our warehouse, and we will not tell you otherwise.
If something goes wrong
Faulty inside 12 months: send a photo or a short video and we send a replacement. Nothing to post back, no postage to pay. Changed your mind: 30 days, unused and in its original packaging, posted back to our Queensland returns address at your cost, and we refund the product price. Nothing here takes away your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
What this is, and what it isn't
TORQ gear applies warmth, light, vibration or air pressure to the part of you it straps to. It is not a medical device, it is not on the ARTG, and we make no claim about what it will do for your body. If something is actually wrong, that is a GP or a physio, not a wrap. Do not use it during pregnancy, with a pacemaker or implanted device, over broken skin, or where you cannot feel warmth normally.
What's in it
A slow squeeze up the leg, for twenty minutes.
No heat, no LEDs, no app. Chambers, a pump and a controller with buttons on it.
Chambers inflate in order, foot to thigh.
They fill from the ankle upward, hold, release, and go again. Both legs at once, all the way to the upper thigh. Not a calf cuff.
Three modes, three pressure levels, buttons you can feel.
A handheld controller on a lead with a display. No app, no Bluetooth pairing, no account, nothing to update. Set it and put it down.
It's a leg compression massager, not a $1,500 clinic machine.
Fewer chambers, a narrower pressure range and a wired controller instead of an app. If you're a professional athlete, buy the expensive one. It's also about a 3 kg parcel, so a change-of-mind return costs real postage. Better you know now than at the post office.
Fit
One long size. Check it before you order.
Height range
Suits roughly 165 cm to 190 cm with generous thigh room. Shorter and the top chamber sits high on the thigh, which is fine. Much taller and the boots stop short of the top of the leg.
Measure your thigh
Around the widest part, standing and relaxed. If you're near the limit, email us before you order rather than after.
Sit down first
Zip them on sitting, legs out straight on the lounge or a bed. Loose trackies underneath are more comfortable than bare skin for a full cycle.

Pricing
Why there's no 'was' price on anything we sell.
Look at the table above
Nearly every price on it is advertised as a reduction from a bigger number. One knee massager lists the same single unit at $299.95 on one page of its own site and $219.95, 'reduced from $529.95', on another.
We've never charged one
$179 for the Knee, $149 for the Back, $249 for the Legs. That was the price last month and it'll be the price next month. There's nothing to reduce it from.
If we ever run a real sale
It'll have a real end date and we'll tell you why we're running it. No countdown stuck at zero, no 'only 3 left', no Easter sale still running in September.
Straight up
What you get, and what you don't.
Where it ships from
TORQ is Australian-owned and based on the Gold Coast. Our gear is made by our manufacturing partner in Asia and posted direct to you, free and tracked, anywhere we ship. That's a real part of why the Knee is $179 and not $349. Queensland is our returns address, not our warehouse, and we won't tell you otherwise.
If it's faulty
Send a photo or a short video and we send a replacement. There's nothing to post back and no postage for you to pay. Several brands in this category still make you pack the unit and post it overseas at your cost. We don't.
If you change your mind
30 days, unused and in its original packaging, posted back to our Queensland returns address at your cost, and we refund the product price. That's a weaker headline than the '90-day risk-free' you'll see elsewhere. It's also the whole policy, with nothing hidden underneath it.
FAQ
Questions people actually ask
How is this different from a $1,500 clinic machine?
Fewer chambers, a narrower pressure range and a wired controller instead of an app. If you're a professional athlete, buy the expensive one. If you want twenty minutes of a slow squeeze up the leg while you sit through the footy, this does that.
Is it loud?
There's an air pump, so about as loud as a desk fan. Fine with the TV on, not something you'd run next to a sleeping baby.
Will it fit me?
One long size, roughly 165 to 190 cm tall, with generous thigh room. Measure around the widest part of your thigh standing up and email us if you're near the limit.
Does it plug in, or is it battery powered?
Mains powered with an Australian plug, and the controller runs on a lead. It's a sit-down-on-the-couch device, not something you walk around in.
How long is a session?
Twenty minutes, then it shuts itself off.
Does it have heat or the red lights in it?
No. That's the TORQ Knee and the TORQ Back. The boots are air only.
What does a change-of-mind return cost me?
It's about a 3 kg parcel, so expect real postage rather than satchel money. We say that up front because a lot of stores don't. Faults are different: send a photo or a short video and we replace it free with nothing to post back.
Where does it ship from and how long does it take?
Australian-owned, Gold Coast based, made by our manufacturing partner in Asia and posted direct to you. Free shipping worldwide, dispatched in 1–2 business days, usually 7–12 business days to metro addresses.
Is it safe if I've got a health condition?
Don't use it if you have a blood clot or DVT, heart failure, open wounds, or if you're pregnant. Check with your GP first if you're unsure. It's not a medical device and we make no claim about what it does for your body.

Proof
We're new, and we're not buying reviews.
No review count yet
TORQ launched in 2026. We haven't got ten thousand reviews and we're not going to buy, import or seed any. When real ones land we'll show them with the trade and the suburb attached.
No badges we haven't earned
No press logos, no 'FDA cleared', no 'TGA registered', no physio endorsement, no medical-grade anything. We hold none of those, so none of them are on this site.
What you get instead
Every number we know, the ones we're still measuring flagged as such, our competitors' prices printed next to ours, and an inbox that answers. Judge us on that until there's something better to judge us on.
Why TORQ exists
I'm James, Gold Coast. I started TORQ because the gear I wanted was either six hundred dollars with a brand name on it, or forty dollars with no idea who made it or whether the strap would even do up. So we picked hardware we'd use ourselves, put our name on it, wrote down every number on the page, and priced it once instead of marking it up four times for a shelf. If it turns up faulty you send me a photo and I send you another one. That's the whole pitch.
