Customer feedback

Comments: When I first saw these I thought they were a gimmick. I received a set of the tights and a top for Christmas. I have been wearing them while running and cycling, as well as for recovery after hard workouts. I have also used them in one sprint triathlon. They are comfortable to wear, but do not add much warmth (they are not designed to). If worn under anoter layer they help some with keeping warm. As to the compression benefits, I don't know. They may be helping or they may not. I can't verify a difference in performance with them on, but they certainly don't hurt anything. As for recovery, I think they are helping a bit, but the improvement could be from a variety of factors (daily nutrition, hydration, recovery supplements, etc). Since they are comfortable, I will continue to use them. I'm sure there is some benefit to using them, but if you expect your 5k times to drop by minutes these won't be the miracle you're after.
