FAQs

What is Gradient Compression?

Gradient Compression is engineered to provide the right level of pressure to specific parts of the body, improving blood flow and circulation. It's tighter in some areas and gradually less tight in others to efficiently move blood away from the extremities back towards the heart.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the Skins official sizing chart, which typically uses height and weight measurements. It's crucial to get the sizing right for optimal compression benefits.

Can I wear these tights for everyday activities, not just sports?

Yes, while designed for athletic performance, many people find the support and comfort beneficial for everyday wear, especially during long periods of standing or travel.

How often should I wash my compression tights?

It's recommended to wash them after each use to maintain hygiene and fabric integrity. Follow the specific care instructions provided.

Are these suitable for recovery after injury?

The increased circulation and muscle support can aid in the recovery process by reducing swelling and soreness, but they should not be considered a replacement for medical advice or treatment.

What is the main difference between Skins A400 and other compression wear?

The A400 range is known for its advanced Gradient Compression, dynamic support lines, and focus on optimizing muscle function and recovery through precise engineering.

Troubleshooting

Compression feels too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the Skins sizing chart. Incorrect sizing is the most common cause of excessive tightness.

Compression feels too loose

Verify you have followed the sizing guide accurately. The garment should feel snug but not constricting. Check for any signs of damage to the fabric.

Chafing or irritation

Ensure the seams are properly aligned and that the garment is the correct size. Wearing moisture-wicking underwear underneath might help in some cases. Always adhere to washing instructions, as fabric softener can affect the material.

Garment losing compression over time

This can occur with improper care. Avoid harsh detergents, fabric softeners, and high heat during washing or drying. Store properly when not in use.
