The Science of SKINS Compression
Engineered for Performance. Backed by Science.
SKINS Compression is not just tight activewear—it's high-performance sportswear designed through decades of scientific research and innovation. Since 1996, SKINS has worked alongside sports scientists, medical experts, and athletes to develop compression garments that genuinely enhance performance, reduce fatigue, and accelerate recovery.
Why SKINS Compression Works
Gradient Compression Technology
SKINS' proprietary gradient compression delivers the right level of pressure to the muscles, increasing blood flow and improving oxygen delivery. This helps:
-
Reduce lactic acid build-up
-
Delay muscle fatigue
-
Boost endurance and performance
Targeted Muscle Support
SKINS garments are anatomically designed to provide targeted support where it's needed most. This reduces muscle vibration, minimises the risk of injury, and stabilises joints during intense physical activity.
Scientifically Proven Benefits
SKINS Compression has been tested in over 25 peer-reviewed studies. Results have shown measurable improvements in:
-
Muscle power and strength
-
Blood circulation
-
Recovery time post-exercise
-
Reduction in exercise-induced muscle damage
The SKINS Advantage
-
Faster Recovery: Enhanced circulation helps remove waste products like lactic acid and supports faster muscle repair.
-
Improved Performance: Wear during workouts to push harder and go further.
-
Injury Prevention: Less muscle movement reduces strain and helps prevent common injuries.
Whether you’re training, competing, or recovering, SKINS Compression gives you a physiological edge.
