Zensah Recovery Compression Short - Hamstring Support, Compression Shorts for Running, Athletic Compression Short

This item met all my expectations!!

These shorts provide more compression than I expected! I got them to pair up with compression socks to use when bike riding, hiking, gym workouts and all day adventures. They help stave off fatigue.

I bought to protect my hamstring muscles. They fit great

Track injury for hip flexor caused my son to get this type of compression short. It was pretty snug and it helped. But he only uses it when he is experiencing the hip pain.

I have tried UA, Nike, and CEP compression shorts and these are by far the best of the bunch. Nike and UA offer very little in the way of actual mm/Hg of compression, and the CEP had too many seams and was a very strange fit. Love the fit of the Zensahs, real mm/Hg compression (if unspecified), and the 3D woven fabric with a single seam down the inner leg with a sewn gusset at perineum for no painful chafing on long runs. Longevity is still to be tested, but the initial 25k run with 3000 feet of vertical says these are part of the kit for summer mountain running in the CO Rockies!!!

I was very skeptical at first due to the relatively reasonable price; all other compression gear is in the $80-100 range so when I saw these at half the price, I was unsure if they were any 'good'.I am EXTREMELY satisfied with the quality! The compression is amazing. Much stronger than Under Armour and most of the CX-W I have worn.Easy to wash.However, I would not wear these "as is". They are best worn under a pair of soccer type shorts.I have recommended these shorts to several people and they too have bought and love these shorts.Follow the sizing guidelines provided by Zensah.Happy wearing!

I’m just getting into wearing compression and Zensah is my favorite brand I’ve tried. It’s a stretch knit rather than a shiny spandex fabric. I can’t rate it in comparison to other high end brands because I don’t want to wear shiny tights. Zensah does what I want. It lessons and helps me recover from fatigue. These shorts are probably my favorite compression piece to date.

This is not a compression pant like 2XU or CW-X. It provided barely any kind of compression and simply felt like regular lycra/synthetic and thick running tights. I just want to also note that I purchased a size smaller and have large thighs and calves. The pants provided no support and slid on easily. I purchased two and returned immediately. Save your money and get CW-X's.
