SKINS STORY – SKINS Compression US Skip to content
"SKINS products are the best on the market. I’ve tried several similar products from other companies and nothing really compares." - David K."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!" - Danielle"The feel and the fit are fantastic and support me and my athletic endeavors." - Guy E.

THE SKINS STORY

OUR ORIGINS

We are the pioneers of compression sportswear. Without SKINS, there would be no compression sportswear; we invented it. Since 1996, our mission has been, and always will be, to help those who need to perform better, recover faster, or who need improved blood flow.

SKINS compression and the technology involved in every stitch has been under the scientific and research microscope since its launch 25 years ago. Through peer-reviewed studies, we can actually back up our claims of being the best compression sportswear on the market.

Recently we launched the fourth evolution in compression sportswear technology with the SERIES products known as SERIES-5, SERIES-3, SERIES-1, and now SERIES-2. Each SERIES has been deliberately designed with different sports and athletic levels in mind. Every athlete and sports enthusiast can utilize SKINS for training, competition, and recovery. With these new SERIES', we continue to push boundaries.

It's good to be back to winning ways.
