FAQs

What is the primary benefit of Skins Series-1 compression wear?

The primary benefit is enhanced muscle support and stabilization during exercise, which can help reduce muscle strain and fatigue.

Can this garment be worn under other clothing?

Yes, the Skins Series-1 Ladies garment is designed to be worn as a base layer under other athletic apparel or on its own.

How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?

Refer to the Skins official size guide. Proper sizing is crucial for experiencing the intended compression benefits without discomfort. The garment should feel snug but not restrict breathing or circulation.

What activities is this garment best suited for?

It is suitable for a wide range of sports and fitness activities, including running, cycling, gym workouts, and team sports where muscle support is beneficial.

How often should I wash my Skins Series-1 garment?

It is recommended to wash your garment after each use to maintain hygiene and fabric integrity. Follow the specific cold wash and line dry instructions.

Will this garment keep me warm in cold weather?

While it offers some insulation, its primary function is moisture-wicking and compression. For very cold conditions, it's best used as a base layer with additional insulating clothing over it.

What is the difference between Series-1 and other Skins series?

Series-1 offers essential compression for everyday athletes. Higher series (like Series-3 or Series-5) typically provide more advanced features, such as zonal compression, increased breathability, or temperature regulation for more demanding athletes.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the Skins size chart. If the size is correct, allow a brief break-in period for the fabric to adapt to your body. For immediate comfort, consider wearing for shorter durations initially.

Reduced compression after washing

Check that you have followed the care instructions precisely, particularly avoiding fabric softeners, bleach, and high heat drying or ironing. These can degrade the elastane fibers responsible for compression.

Skin irritation or chafing

Ensure the garment is the correct size and fit. Make sure it is washed before the first use. If irritation persists, it may be a reaction to the fabric material; consider trying a different material blend if available.
