FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Skins Ry400 Recovery garment?

The primary purpose is to aid muscle recovery after strenuous physical activity by increasing blood circulation, reducing muscle soreness, and minimizing fatigue.

Can I wear the Ry400 Recovery garment during exercise?

No, the Ry400 Recovery garment is specifically designed for wear *after* exercise to aid recovery. It is not intended for use during training or performance activities.

How long should I wear the recovery garment?

It is recommended to wear the garment for at least 2-3 hours post-exercise, or ideally overnight for maximum benefit. Listen to your body and wear it as feels comfortable.

What does 'Dynamic Gradient Compression' mean?

It means the compression is strongest at the ankle and gradually decreases up the leg, mirroring the body's natural blood flow and aiding circulation back towards the heart.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Refer to the specific Skins size guide for the Ry400 range. The garment should feel snug and supportive, but not restrict movement or cause pain. The compression should be felt evenly.

Can I wear other clothing over the Ry400 Recovery garment?

Yes, you can wear casual clothing over the recovery garment. It is designed to be comfortable for lounging or sleeping.

How does this garment differ from Skins' compression wear for training?

Recovery garments like the Ry400 are optimized for post-activity to enhance blood flow and reduce swelling. Training compression wear (like Skins Series-3 or Series-5) is designed to support muscles during exercise, improving performance and reducing injury risk.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the Skins size chart. The garment is designed for compression, but if it causes significant pain or numbness, it may be too small or incorrectly positioned.

Compression seems to be reducing over time

Follow the care instructions precisely. Avoid high heat, harsh detergents, and tumble drying, which can degrade the compression fabric.

Skin irritation after wearing

Ensure the garment is clean before wearing. If irritation persists, try wearing it for shorter durations initially or consider if the fabric is suitable for your skin type.
