2XUMen's Refresh Recovery Compression Tights, Black/Nero, Large

Loving these. tight but comfortable. Also been great as thermal layer for my winter running. I run 30-50 miles a week and I wear them at night a lot, during the work day a lot (especially after hard days), and during many runs either under shorts or as running tights. Very versatile. I prefer this length that goes all the way to ankles. They aren't difficult to put on or pull off and they are comfortable in the mid-area also. I own shorter compression tights and some that were size larger. These are the best so far.

Excellent product durable and quality

They're fairly comfortable but I'm 6'0" and these go all the way up above my navel, otherwise I have to roll the waist band up or there's extra material bunching up throughout the legs. This is the normal Large too, not the Large-tall. I normally wear 36x32 pants for reference.

Form fitting and good for recovery.

Comfortable

A very comfortable fit for lower body workouts that does offer a bit of recovery. Best of all, the wearer thinks he looks great in them.

I got these for my son, who is a college lacrosse player. He's home for the summer and is working out hard all summer to stay in shape for his team. His reviews on these compression tights are mixed.LIKES:- he likes them for running, and feels very supported in them- though note that he does not feel any performance enhancement- they keep him dry with no chafing- see below; he feels that they reduce muscle soreness when put on right after heavy liftingDISLIKES:- he feels that they are too binding for weight lifting - BUT when he wears them after lifting he says that he gets less muscle soreness- see above; he does not feel any performance enhancement when wearing them to runBOTTOM LINE: Do they do anything? Unclear. The research is also unclear on this. My son likes wearing them during running or after lifting, but he doesn't notice any big differences either way.

These are very, very tight, especially in the ankles, calves, and crotch, making them very difficult to put on. Worn as recovery tights after running, I did not notice any difference in fatigue or improvement in muscle soreness but since I often increase my running regimen I cannot say for certain that they are not helpful. They just did not seem helpful to me. Also, it is possible I just need a larger size as my measurements are on the border line but without being provided that option I am not sure that will really make a significant difference, particularly in the area around the calves. So, these are just okay for me.
