About

When you've smashed a triathlon, rowed down the competition, or blitzed that perfect tennis match, you want your system healing and strengthening from the moment your muscles power down.

SKINS revolutionary research has taught us that your compression needs whilst in the height of activity are different to when your muscles are in a relaxed state of recovery. With this in mind, we created the RY400 range.

Wearing RY400 men's long tights after training or playing can help reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and improve your muscle recovery time.

Put an end to ice baths and wear RY400 for at least 3 hours to get the best results. 400 fit guarantees maximum comfort, so you can even wear them while you sleep to speed up your body's natural recovery process. They're not guaranteed to do much for your love life though.

 

Product Features
  • 3D body scan data and 400 key fitting points have been used to create a more precise and comfortable fit to maximise compression benefits.
  • Biomechanically positioned panels and seams support and stabilise the muscles to reduce fatigue and risk of injury.
  • Permanent antimicrobial treatment discourages bacteria by ionically absorbing the odour causing substances normally associated with Lycra wear. These features are built into all our fabrics, so they can’t ever be washed out.
  • SKINS proven 50+ UV protection.
  • Memory MX Fabric has a superior high-stretch yarn that doesn’t change shape or sag, so you maintain consistent compression, session after session. A400 Long Tights have 70D Memory MX over the knee and Achilles tendon for unrestricted natural movement, and 210D Memory MX over the ITB and TFL muscle groups to help reduce the risk of injury.
  • SKINS compression fabric is made from a warp knitted mix of yarns that give you a carefully calculated level of stretch for controlled compression and durability.
  • Gradient Compression has been engineered to provide the correct level of surface pressure to enhance circulation and increase oxygen delivery – improving your recovery after sport
  • Ultimate comfort is delivered through flexible, flatter A-Seams. It's sleek construction, specially developed for technical athletic wear, means the A-Seam sits flat against your body to eliminate chafing and they're 30% stronger than a standard stich making your SKINS super tough.
  • Moisture wicking fabric draws sweat away from the body to the surface of the garment where it evaporates to keep you dry.

Every so often, we stumble across something equal parts weird and wonderful

Here's one of those things: a Twitter account called @ProgressBar2017.

In the very likely event that you didn't click the link, we'll fill you in. All @ProgressBar2017 does is tweet how far 2017 has progressed. We're not sure why we initially thought it might be anything different.

Here's the kicker: that account has over 30 000 Twitter followers, AND YET that number isn't even 10% of the fan base @big_ben_clock boasts.

Yup! @big_ben_clock is a Twitter account that BONGS the relevant number of bongs on the hour. Every hour. And it's nearly half a million followers strong.

The 21st century is weird.
