Yet, sometimes choosing the correct SERIES for you and your sport can be confusing, but we&#8217;re to help.\u00a0In this journal, we&#8217;re focusing on SERIES-5.

We&#8217;ve spent 25 years researching where compression works best, and that&#8217;s where we put it. We know what pressure to apply and where. Too much pressure in the wrong place is what causes issues, and we&#8217;re here to make you better, not worse.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\">VEGAN<\/a><\/p>\n<p>All of our new SERIES SKINS\u2122 are vegan. We&#8217;re working hard behind the scenes to become a more sustainable brand. So, in an effort to be kinder to our planet, all of our new SERIES SKINS, including our activewear, are vegan. As well as that, it also means those who follow a plant-based lifestyle can enjoy the compression benefits of SKINS\u2122 too.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\">WARP-KNIT FABRICS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A crucial element used in all three ranges and is <u>totally unique<\/u> to SKINS\u2122 is our warp-knit fabric. Warp knit means strong tension that&#8217;s not lost through use or damage. So, not only do your SKINS\u2122 offer a stronger, more robust tension, it also means that our compression still works even if it gets damaged.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\">THE DIFFERENCE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>SKINS are different because their unique combination of features works better than any single component. Plus, their benefits are backed by independent testing and research &#8211; something that no other compression and therapeutic sportswear manufacturer can boast.\u00a0You can discover these journals\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.skinscompression.com\/uk\/discover-the-science\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\">MOISTURE WICKING <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Wicking moves moisture from your skin to the outside of the garment where it evaporates &#8211; so your skin stays dry. We use a top-quality wicking treatment where the moisture management is in the thread &#8211; rather than treating it afterwards.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\">SUN PROTECTION<\/a><\/p>\n<p>SKINS fabric is independently tested and proven to provide 50+ UV protection in non-mesh areas. This means you can enjoy outdoor exercise and activities without the concern of sun related risks.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/skins_compression\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\nInstagram<br \/>\n<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Knowing which Compression Sportswear is best for your sport and activity level is key to upping your performance and recovery.
