Adidas Men's Techfit Powerweb Short Tight, has anyone had any experience with these or a similar nike product?

I use cw-x. Love it

Nothing can make up for lack of talent but there is some evidence to suggest the adidas technology works. I blogged about it a while back.

I need a hat that will make me think faster.  Does adidas make one of those?

I think socks would be even better.

I got those 3 weeks ago.
I'm often limited by soreness at the hammy-glute insertions. These help tons. I have to admit that even the Underarmour ones also work almost as well.

I hope they can make up for a lack of talent…

Give me a mask and a cape and I will run as Batman in those things. Can they make you faster and be bulletproof?

On a serious note, I have heard good things and now I am thinking of buying them.

Anyone have taken a look at Skins?

They're Awesome…though I haven't tried anything else except cheap addidas bike shorts.

Its worth looking into it..its not very often that a product can be strongly recommended and endorsed by a professional association.

It has received both mixed reactions from the athletes in singapore wearing them….it takes some time to get used to the gradient compression of the garments. IMO,  i will be looking at it from a potential point to provide additional biofeedback for static skill based sports.

would they help prevent against injury in any way?

I have worn the Adidas powerweb gear recently, i really liked it for short speed work and gym work, not as big a fan of it though for longer speed endurance sessions, seemed to just retain the lactic in the legs.

I would say its worth a try.

I just got SKINS.  Used em twice but they are pretty sweet.
