[stoner]

Hi to all,

Hey bro. Go gmarket.com.sg. It's cheaper there. But buy with care la. Try and read through the reviews to see if products can be trusted

For ZXU, u could try Velocity at novena square.

Last i went there (maybe about 2 yrs ago), the is a shop called Running Lab which sells these tights.

 

I think think these tights can be purchased at some specialised running sport shops. Try Queensway as well.

What the hell are compression tights?

[mmkbad]

Tights which compress your leg muscles. Supposedly it reduces muscle fatique.

Ever seen tennis players wearing a top with just one long sleeve on their master swinging arm?

Same concept/theory.

Oh. I am a person who has become rather fat after i ORDed many years ago. I used to be rather fit but now like super fat. What are the benefits of me using this so called 'compression pants'?

 

Oh one more thing. I need to wear knee guards when i run. But when i wear knee guards, my ball hip joint starts to hurt. Will compression thights help me to solve this problem and support my hip ball joint?

go see a doctor..but from what u posted, u should lose weight as y ur knee cap is aching, cant take the heavy load then when u sort of assisted the knee cap, this load has to go some where hence where.i used to hav knee pain..i force myself to drop weight..no more pain plus no more seeing doctors.

 

for now, go see a doctor.

Thanks guys for the lead.

 

As mention by some mates here, compression tights is generally used in Triathlon Events... Greatly reducing muscle fatigue.

 

I'm too fat by national standard...

 

I'll be using it for long distance rides, in my recent trip to Ranong Thailand... A few buddy of mine were wearing them (They purchased overseas) and they are of rather healthy sizes.

 

I'm have a bad hip & right knee... thus having a compression tight will bring comfort to me during my long distance rides...

i dont understand. u r not even running... why would u need compression tights?????

[naim]

its a very comfy under-layer actually. i use it for touring or long rides in SG. instead of wearing t-shirt below my mesh jacket, which gets soaked wen i sweat. with this, its really comfy underneath the jacket cux moisture is evaporated quickly n no parts get soaked. the slippery texture also makes putting on and taking off the jacket easy.

I wear them only when I tour up north .. it keep's me cool, comfortable and fresh…

 

At times…. I cover more than 1600km at a go in less than 24hrs and staying fresh & comfortable makes a big difference.

Same thoughts... I'll feel less..... "sticky" after a day of Hard Long Riding..

[f-50evolution]

i got 1 on sale from compressyourself.com very good variety of quality tights

[papabread79]

U guys are getting the wrong things for riding.

 

Just get the cheap Nike Pro l/s top/bottom will do. Its not compression but at least makes life easier to slip ur jacket ard. Furthemore its cheaper.

 

The 2XUs are for runninggggg!!!!!!! Long distances etc!!! Dont buy 2XUs for the sake of brands or look satki in it.

I am using Salomon tights. Found them at World of Sports. Paid about $47 after discount. Love them. Quick dry so they dry by the morning after washing them at night.

[stoner]

I'm currently using Nike... Paid appox $100 for the Top and bottom... It's pretty good...

Go to ebay and search for take five compression. Quite similiar to skins from korea. You can get the shorts and shirt for about $50. I use it for track and it works great.

If you are still looking for 2xu compression thighs, you may want to go to queensway shopping centre (2nd floor). I bought mine there for my marathon. Its totally comfortable. I bought one that is cheaper than the 2xu one, a nike one, but its not as thick and you can feel that the cheaper thighs will get torn after prolong periods of use.
