Compression tights

Hi all,

I am thinking about putting Compression tights on my Christmas list.  Which brand of tights are EN chicas using?  I read some old discussions, and saw Zoot and 2XU being popular.  Thanks for your help!

    I've got Sugoi ones, and love them. I'll probably buy another pair. They've saved my arse (and legs) from many multiple day long weeks/weekends!

    I have Zoot. I like the compression but with a 32 inch inseam, I find them to be a little too short and give me plumbers crack but if I go up a size they don't have the compression I need. I just bought a pair of 2XU and have yet to use them but they seem long enough for me but not as much compression as the zoot. Hope this helps.

    I have the Zoots too and I agree that they are definitely "low riders." If I'm going to be walking a lot I don't wear them because you feel like you're tugging them up constantly. But the compression is significant and I find that I only need to wear them for a few hours.

    Hi Yasko!

    I have 2XU ones and really like them. I think the waist is normal for a pair of tights, so you don't get that plumbers crack feeling.

    I have the Zoots, and think they are very effective. They are definitely low riders, though, and sometimes putting them on is tougher than the workout itself! =)

    I'll second that!  I'm short waisted so the low rise doesn't bother me too much, but I would certainly categorize them as low riders.  On the plus side, you never have to worry about them showing up at the top of your jeans or slacks.

    Thanks, all! I think I will go for Zoot tights. I am short, so 32 inch inseam should be plenty.

    In case you haven't purchased them yet. There is a $45 savings at tri village
