Skins recovery tights

mloc123

Anybody have a list of places that stock them in Dublin (city center). Runways do but none in my size, great outdoors is the same. Looking for medium recovery

Could try 53 Degrees North or IrishFit – both shops are online and in around Carrickmines, Dublin.
Another option is sweatshop.co.uk

Hope that helps

I'm sure I saw the 2XU ones in Amphibian King before.

Agreed. I was in AK once and I'm 99.9% sure I seen them there.

If you weren't in a hurry, you could order them online. I got mine from pro-direct running in the UK. I'm actually going to place an order for a couple more I think.

Are you 100% sure on your size? Before i got mine i would have thought i was a medium as im medium if not large in most things but it turned out at 77kg and 185cm small suited me better as i was between sizes and the rule of thumb is to go down if between sizes. They fit perfectly. I got mine on CRC

I normally wear the Skins shorts underneath my tracksuit bottoms. Are there similar "tights" that you can get that you can wear as an outer layer?

The CSS do Zoot and they are deadly, far better than 2XU

Id ditch the trackie bottoms for a start, unless you wanna sweat yourself into oblivion. Get a set of running tights. The recovery tights are not for during running, only after. I know these are expensive but they are top notch:
