I own skins, 2xu, nike etc, if you want comparisons, ask for it in the comments below *by D***C on Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2015* I've used them once so far, and my legs have felt great. I should preface this by saying I'm a fanatic of compression, and own/owned the skins a400 half tights, a400 top, ry400 tights, 2xu half tights, full tights, and all sorts of nike compression. One thing that I really liked about the skins a400 series was that they were extremely comfortable. The material they use for the crotch is actually phenomenal (memory mx). It's probably the only pair of compression I would feel alright wearing after my sporting event for a few more hours. However, one of the problems with the original a400s was that they didn't feel durable. While they were insanely comfortable, I was unsure of how they would hold up. The power shorts solves this as they are much thicker and offer much more compression. The trade off I found though, is that while they still use memory mx on the crotch, the thicker material isn't as comfortable. However, my legs really do feel fresh, thus, I'm giving it a five star rating. Something I didn't understand before was that I thought compression was only good for recovery, thus using it during exercise would be useless. The power shorts especially, have demonstrated that they reduce recovery time by preventing your muscles from vibrating and getting damaged.I will say though, after doing my own research for a while, most of the benefits of compression have been found in full length tights, and this was the case with my other 2 half tights. Though the power short did work for me, if you really want to give compression a try, do try out full length tights, as you can use them to recover in and exercise in. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars In the words of the late Tony the Tiger- They're GGGRREAT!! *by A***E on Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2014* I love these things! They are awesome! They and Amazon.com exceeded all expectations. Yes, they are expensive, but coming from someone who has bought all CWX, they're not that out of line. But they're worth the money. They stay up, they're snug and they can be worn by themselves, which is why I bought them to use in the summer months. Normally, I take a Medium but after trying some UnderArmors, I found I take a large. I'm glad I did. They are very snug so I would have had to return them if I had purchased the MD, just FYI. If you can afford these things, get 'em! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars I feel the effects of the tights but it is slightly too tight. *by D***M on Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2015* The size i checked online I was suppose to fit Small but was along the upper limit of the size. when i tried i realized that it was just slightly too tight maybe because of my big gluteus. Would have preferred it if it was more fitting. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/467583829-skins-mens-a400-compression-power-short](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/467583829-skins-mens-a400-compression-power-short) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
