Thread: Compression wear?

What do people get out of compression wear? I'm taking about polyester/elastane pants/tops. When you're hot it makes you hotter and when you're cold, it makes you colder. What's the deal?

well ive had probs with my lower calves ankles etc for a few years -in cases of oncoming wet weather etc they ache like 40 rancid whores swell like adernsens ego and drive me batshit .I got 2 sets of chinee compression socks from the toopdoooolllar chinee shop and bugger me they work a treat. that compression underkit to me is just a fancy version of ye old army longjohns -have two pair bloody cracker for duckshooting!

I find they are ideal if it's not quite cold enough for longs, also if you get good ones that breath they are a god send if your hunting areas prone to sand flies keeping your extremeties covered from the bitey little cnuts !!!!!

Sun/bug protection is good. Overheating/overcooling is not. What I need is a second skin.
