VERY TIGHT FIT

New compressio­n wear from Skins for running and recovery

-

SKINS K- PROPRIUM

£150, wiggle.co.uk

1/ Extremely tight, with an uber-personalis­ed fit, thanks to 3D body-scan data from which Skins says it mapped out 400 key fitting points.

2/ ‘Warp knit’ technique means the weave zigzags throughout the fabric rather than going straight across or down. This delivers better durability.

3/ Temperatur­e-regulated weave that cools you down or insulates you, depending on what your needs are.

4/ 50+ UV protection as well as flat, reinforced seams for comfort and greater longevity.

5/ Tighter bands wrap the larger leg muscles to control motion, keep them activated and delay the onset of fatigue.

6/ Graduated compressio­n (tighter further down the leg) to aid postrun recovery.
