2XU Men Sporting_Goods

Always been a big fan of 2XU. Helps me in recovery and also in training. Plan to buy this product? Don't think twice.

I was impressed by the item so much that I ordered the upper also. Lo and behold, the item has a gaping hole in two washes and 3 times wear. Must be an old item sold to me now. Be careful

Highly recommended for swim and runs

Really good price compared to 2XU online shop, comfy and excellent compression. Really worked after my long runs legs felt refreshed and not achy like they usually do.

Love how tight these fit, really good compression support. I like them on the small side for max support, not loose. To me, these TR2 are not quite as compressive as the MCS or Hyoptik, but still they are much better than many others I’ve tried. They’re really comfortable. I wear them while running on a treadmill at the gym, typically 2 to 5 miles per session. I’ve noticed increased endurance since starting to wear compression pants (not just running tights)... I run faster speeds for a longer time while running as compared to not wearing compression when running. Additionally I will wear them to help with recovery after a run, or sometimes to sleep in or under my regular pants if I’m feeling sore the next day after running. At 46 years old, reduced recovery time is an important factor that helps me to run more frequently with less aches and pains. The first few times I put true compression pants on, it took me a little extra time trying to figure out how to get them all the way on because they’re so tight. Eventually I learned a few tricks to make it easier (notice I didn’t say easy). But they’re worth an extra minute to put them on, as with all good compression pants. Besides 2XU brand, I have numerous styles of compression pants including Virus, CW-X, Nike, PRS, and Compressionz. These 2XU TR2 are one of my favorites due to how much support they give. Other favs are 2XU MCS, 2XU Hyoptik, Virus CO29 and also the relatively unknown PRS brand compression pants. All of these offer really good compression support and I wear them all regularly. I don’t size up on any of these and wear a size small in all of them for max support. I’m relatively slender and have a somewhat naturally fit build, not overly muscular, but not a stick figure either... @ 5’7, 157lbs, I typically wear 30-32 pants and I’m wearing a size small in these 2XU TR2 compression pants. Some might feel they are too small. But again, I prefer much compression. You may prefer to size up a bit.

I purchased Medium Tall, I'm 180cm, 80 Kg, they fit perfect. These are compression tights, they take some work to get on properly but it gets easier to get them on the more you wear them, not because they stretch, because of proper technique (see below). They have a snug ankle cuff that keeps them from riding up. The tie on the waistband keeps them from slipping down. If you have trouble getting them pulled up I suggest a pair of compression donning gloves (ribbed rubber gloves). Use gloves to slide and work the tights up your legs, it works great and they stay in place. The material wicks sweat away from your skin and evaporates quickly. I hand wash and hang them to dry and they easily dry overnight. After over a month of daily use they seem to be standing up well.

2XU makes the best men's tights, but because these are thicker and made of a more old-school fabric (nylon spandex), you'll use more force putting these on than like a pair of UA tights. After wearing these alot and switching out to my UAs I almost ripped them because these by their nature take a little more man-handling. I do love the extra support and motion-return these give. I own several pairs and are always my first choice as my workout base-layer under my shorts.
