PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
COMPRESSION SHORTS
The 2XU Compression Short is designed to support this key area of the body throughout training and on race day. Suitable for wear under competition uniforms, 2XU has engineered the fit of this short to provide equal support to all regions of the upper leg - a particularly high stress and often injury stricken area. All the while, a graduated compression aids blood flow to the heart.
Compression has been used in the medical industry for 150 years, however it is only in recent times that people have become aware of the advantages and performance benefits of wearing compression garments during and after exercise. Extensive research now proves that compression garments offer a range of benefits which lead to increased performance and body function.
Features:
- 2XU Circular knit construction
- 2XU Anti bacterial
- 2XU High denier compression fabric
- 2XU Durability

IMPROVED RECOVERY
Therapeutic rated fabric provides greater pressure and recovery benefit by helping the pumping action of the cardiovascular system; removing blood lactate from exercising muscles leading to faster muscle repair.
IMPROVED CIRCULATION
Faster warm up and enhanced overall circulation. Graduated compression of the limbs actively encourages and increases venous return to the heart and lymph to the lymph nodes.
REDUCED FATIGUE
During exercise, your muscles are exposed to forces that cause vibration. This major cause of muscle fatigue, known as muscle oscillation, can be reduced when wearing compression garments. This leads to improved muscle endurance, strength and power.
HEIGHTENED AGILITY
Heightened proprioception increases senses and awareness for enhanced stability and agility. Proprioception can also help with improved technique as you remain aware of your body's positioning, improving the balance control system and muscle coordination.
REDUCED DAMAGE
2XU Compression features muscle containment properties which reduce muscle damage during exercise and minimize swelling post-exercise. Additional benefits include significant reduction of exercised-induced conditions such as Delayed-Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS).
2XU GRADUATED PRESSURE
2XU's graduated compression garments deliver performance benefits during and post exercise. By enhancing circulation through increased venous function, more oxygenated blood is delivered to muscles requiring it most. Furthermore, exercise induced by-products are flushed from the muscles to reduce fatigue and recovery time.
2XU MADE
Using our exclusive high performance fabric, 2XU Compression garments are engineered to fit tight, whilst maintaining comfort and allowing free range of movement during exercise and long periods of wear.
2XU ANTI BACTERIAL
Embedded with an anti-bacterial, odour resistant application, 2XU Compression can help minimise odour and prevent bacterial growth.
2XU DVT
Deep Vein Thrombosis is a condition that mainly affects the lower body and is associated with long periods of travel or inactivity. 2XU Compression garments enhance blood flow in these areas through enhanced venous return, reducing the risk of DVT.
2XU SUN PROTECTION
UPF50+. Through the fabric composition of Nylon and Lycra, our compression garments offer increased protection from harmful UV rays.
2XU MOISTURE MANAGEMENT
2XU Compression fabrics channel moisture away from the skin, keeping you dry and comfortable.
2XU COMFORT
In all 2XU Compression garments, reinforced flat lock stitching is used to combine strength with comfort. Use of flat lock stitching helps reduce chaffing and enables the garments to be used in a variety of sports and activities where comfort is essential.
2XU MUSCLE STABILITY
During exercise, muscle vibration is a large contributor to muscle fatigue and damage. 2XU Compression stabilizes these muscles, enhancing power and reducing fatigue.
2XU CLIMATE
Through heightened circulation, 2XU Compression regulates your body temperature in both hot and cold conditions. Using and enhancing your body's natural cooling and heating mechanisms, 2XU Compression ensures you remain comfortable in a range of climates.
2XU CIRCULAR KNIT CONSTRUCTION
compression garments are the only all purpose compression garments constructed using a circular high gauge knit structure. This structure delivers an evenly distributed 360 degree stretch compression unachievable in garments with a traditional tricot knit.
2XU HIGH DENIER COMPRESSION FABRIC
Referring to the thickness of the yarn, all 2XU compression garments use high power performance fabrics with high gauge denier ratings. To enhance strength and durability, 2XU compression garments use a 50 denier fabric in all our garments and a combination 50/70 denier fabric in our elite styles. The end result is compression that performs time and again, long after other compression brands have worn out.
