Gradient compression is a specific type of compression where the pressure is greatest at the ankle and gradually decreases as it moves up the leg. This is designed to help blood flow back towards the heart more efficiently.

Yes, while designed for performance, these tights are also highly effective for post-exercise recovery. Wearing them after training or competition can help reduce muscle soreness and speed up the repair process.

Refer to the specific sizing chart provided by Skins, which typically uses measurements like height and weight, or specific body measurements (e.g., calf circumference) to ensure the best fit.

Yes, the balance of support and flexibility makes them suitable for a wide range of athletic activities, from endurance sports like running and cycling to high-impact sports and general fitness training.

For recovery, it is generally recommended to wear compression garments for several hours post-exercise, or even overnight if comfortable, to maximize their benefits.

Yes, the breathable fabric and smooth design allow them to be worn comfortably under other athletic or casual wear, especially during recovery.

Verify that you have selected the correct size based on the official sizing chart. Wearing a size too small can cause excessive tightness and discomfort. If the size is correct, allow a few workouts for your body to adapt to the compression.

Ensure proper care by washing according to instructions (cold wash, mild detergent, no fabric softener) and avoiding high heat drying. Repeated high-heat exposure can degrade the fabric's elasticity.

Ensure the garment fits correctly and is not bunched up. Use a lubricant or anti-chafing balm on sensitive areas before exercise if irritation persists. Make sure the fabric is clean before each use.
