FAQs

How do I find the right size for my Skins A400 Long Sleeve?

Refer to the official Skins sizing chart. You will typically need to measure your height and weight, and sometimes chest and waist circumference, to find the best fit.

Can I wear this for swimming?

While the fabric is durable, Skins compression wear is not specifically designed for swimming and may not perform optimally in water. It's best suited for dry land activities.

How long should I wear the compression top after exercise?

For optimal recovery, many athletes wear the compression top for 2-3 hours post-exercise. Some may choose to wear it for longer periods if they experience significant soreness.

Will this garment help with chronic muscle pain?

Skins A400 is designed to support muscles and improve circulation, which can help alleviate soreness and aid recovery. However, it is not a medical device and should not replace professional medical advice for chronic pain.

Is it suitable for very cold weather?

The long sleeves provide warmth and can be an excellent base layer in cold conditions. For extreme cold, layering additional thermal clothing over it is recommended.

How often should I wash my Skins A400 Long Sleeve?

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

Troubleshooting

Compression feels too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the Skins sizing guide. An incorrect size can lead to discomfort. If the size is correct, try wearing it for shorter periods initially to acclimate.

Garment feels loose or lacks compression

Verify that you have chosen the correct size. Over time, compression garments can lose some elasticity, but if this is immediate, the size is likely too large.

Skin irritation after wearing

Wash the garment before first use. Ensure no detergent residue remains. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

Seams are uncomfortable during activity

Ensure the garment is oriented correctly (tags and seams in their intended positions). Flatlock seams are designed for comfort, but personal sensitivity may vary. Try a different size or model if issues persist.
