The 2XU Compression Running Short is designed to apply an optimum degree of effective compression that still remains comfortable for the wearer. These shorts are designed to be worn when exercising and are shaped to accommodate freedom of movement, comfort and flexibility in equal abundance. A PWX (Power, Weight, Flex) fabric blend allows the garment to be breathable and durable whilst the extensive use of flatlock seams minimises chafing. The 2XU Compression Short also exhibits an excellent moisture management capability, wicking sweat away from the skin to encourage an environment that is cooler, drier and altogether more plasant.

The 2XU Compression Short will reduce muscle damage by limiting vibration when running. The PWX fabric will improve the flow of oxygenated blood to the muscles of the upper leg whilst also improving alignment, thereby improving performance and reducing muscle damage and fatigue.
