Elite High Performance Compression Tights
Building on 2XU’s market leading compression tight, 2XU’s Elite tights are for the athlete who wants even more. Combining a new generation 70 Denier fabric with our existing high power 50 Denier fabric, 2XU Elite Compression Tights offer superior compression to enable greater muscle stability and injury prevention. The new generation 70 Denier fabric, with 15% more support and 25% more power than the 50 Denier fabric, has been designed to support the calves and hamstring muscles - areas which are particularly prone to fatigue, injury and muscle soreness.
It’s About Performance
2XU Compression is the new standard in high performance compression wear. Stop making compromises with second rate products that use fashion fabric and pass it off as ‘performance’ with big marketing words. 2XU medical grade compression gear is what you need to recover faster from you hard workouts in the gym which also adds protection from muscle damage while providing you improved circulation and reduced fatigue.
If you’re serious about getting the best compression performance on the market then make the leap to 2XU.
We consulted National Sporting Organisations and elite athletes to determine technical requirements. We talked to sport persons from multiple disciplines and asked ‘What do you want in a compression garment?’
It’s About Fabric
Then we scoured the globe for manufacturers capable of developing a new standard of compression wear, taking time and care to develop a leading edge, ergogenic fabric. After testing it we tested it again, looking for ways to improve our product and surpass existing standards of quality and technology.
The Power of Compression
Superior Fabric - With circular knit technology for equal 360 degree stretch, anti-microbial treatment and highly durable 50 Denier Lycra Prime Yarn. Compresses stronger and lasts longer.
Improved Recovery - Therapeutic rated fabric provides greater pressure and recovery benefit leading to faster muscle repair.
Improved Circulation - Faster warm up and improved oxygen circulation. Encourage blood to the muscles and flush by-products away.
Reduced Fatigue - Reduced muscle vibration (linked to muscle fatigue) thereby improving muscle endurance and strength.
Reduced Damage - 2XU muscle containment can reduce soft tissue damage in contact and intense sports. Preventative support and aided recovery.
Heightened Proprioception - Heightened body position sense for enhanced stability and agility.
2XU Compression Features
Circular Knit is the most suitable knit structure for Compression wear with a 360 degree stretch/stretch compression. Exclusive to 2XU.
We use 50 and 70 Denier Lycra, compared with 30/40 Denier used by our competitors. Denier represents the thickness of the yarn. A thicker yarn delivers a stronger compressive power.
A graduated compression fit ensures that your blood flow is optimised and stays optimised, removing waste by-products in the process. This ensures you can perform longer with less fatigue.
