FAQ

Compression gear enhances rugby performance by improving circulation, stabilizing muscles, reducing soreness, and accelerating recovery, helping players stay strong and perform their best on and off the pitch.

Yes, SKINS compression gear can help with explosivity in rugby. By improving circulation and delivering more oxygen to working muscles, SKINS gear supports quicker muscle activation and sustained power during high-intensity movements like sprints, tackles, and scrums. The targeted compression also reduces muscle oscillation, helping athletes maintain better control and efficiency, which is crucial for explosive actions on the pitch.

Absolutely! Compression helps increase blood flow, which speeds up the removal of lactic acid and other metabolic waste products. This can reduce muscle soreness and inflammation, allowing you to recover faster and get back to training sooner.

While compression gear can’t fully prevent injuries, it can help reduce the risk by providing extra muscle support and stability. This is especially helpful during high-impact training, as it minimizes muscle vibrations and helps keep muscles aligned.

Compression gear should fit snugly but not restrict circulation. It should feel like a second skin, providing consistent support without being uncomfortable. If it feels too tight or too loose, it may not be giving you the full benefits.

Yes, there is research that supports SKINS compression gear’s benefits for rugby players. In a study conducted with the Forest Green Rovers (a UK soccer team), players wearing SKINS experienced a notable reduction in injuries, which improved their availability for practice and games. This aligns with broader scientific findings showing that compression gear enhances circulation, supports muscle stability, and reduces soreness—key factors that contribute to performance and recovery in rugby. SKINS gear is designed with athletes in mind, helping them stay on the field longer and perform at their peak.

Yes! If you are already signed up for a tournament, and paid your admission, you can submit a receipt for SKINS™ to reimburse you (up to $400).

DanielleCustomer

I have worn these a few times now and I absolutely love these tights! They are a snug fit but the compression is fantastic and I have recovered much quicker following runs/exercise. My muscles overall feel less tired and I’ve worn them on recovery days with no exercise, which also helps to speed recovery. Very light feel as well. Definitely recommend!

RunnerGirlCustomer

As a marathon runner, I’ve tried several brands of compression tights and these SKINS are hands down the very best! Some compression garments are uncomfortably tight while others provide no real support. SKINS gives me the perfect amount of compression during long runs as well as when I wear them for recovery. I have MUCH less muscle fatigue which is always a great feeling! The larger waistband sits comfortably right at the waist and stays in place. Since I am just under 5’3”, they are a little bit long, but the fabric is so lightweight, I don’t even notice. These SKINS are comfortable, breathable, and easy to get on and off (always a plus)! Most importantly, they do what they say they will do! Highly recommend. You’ve got to give them a try!

I'm preparing for a marathon in November and have been using the charcoal pair of these tights (the charcoal color looks awesome by the way!) during my longer runs. They have boosted my stamina and kept me feeling good on my runs. They also haven't gotten looser, despite having them for several months and machine washing them about once/week, which is a common problem with other compression brands I've tried.

AngelaCustomer

I love them. I have trained in them and ran a track meet in them. I qualified for the National Senior Games for 2025 in the 50 and 100 meters in them.


I will wear them in Sacramento, California at American River College during the USA Track and Field Outdoors Championships.
