Whatever your sport, the SKINS DNAmic compression 1/2 tights/shorts with gradient compression technology will boost your circulation, bringing more oxygen-rich blood to your muscles so you can perform better, stronger, and longer with less fatigue and a quicker post activity recovery. This enhanced circulation also Forces blood lactate to circulate more effectively, further improving muscle efficiency and power. By strategically wrapping and supporting your muscles, compression clothing also dramatically reduces muscle vibration/oscillation, leading to fewer muscle tears and lowering the risk of injury as well as reducing DOMS (Delayed onset muscle soreness) after activity. By containing muscles in their firing position, also helps you maintain your posture and technique as you push through your fatigue curve during activity. In addition to the strategic mapping of our compression panels, the other secret lies in proprietary material - powerful, yet lightweight and breathable and structured to offer precise compression where needed. The DNAmic compression 1/2 tights/shorts can be worn during activity for more power and endurance with less. Whether your a dedicated sports fiend or a weekend warrior, you will notice that these are a better pair of tights with some definable, quite obvious performance and recovery benefits. These tights also feature a wide waistband for maximum comfort. Perfect for all activity and sports from hardcore training to game/race day.
