Sports compression wear leader SKINS has pushed the boundaries of performance sportswear to the next level with their all-new K-PROPRIUM men’s and women’s long tights.

Launching globally in February 2017, SKINS’ K-PROPRIUM combine the world’s best Dynamic Gradient Compression with strategically placed Proprioceptive Power Bands (PPB’s) to fight fatigue, reduce the risk of injury and improve performance by enhancing proprioception.

Never heard of proprioception?
Here’s a quick run-down. Proprioception is the unconscious perception of motion and spatial awareness. It’s the body’s ability to sense movement in the joints, so you’re aware of where your limbs are without having to look. It’s important for everyday activities like standing and walking, but it’s even more important during physical activity where dynamic movements and co-ordination are vital for optimal performance. When you’re active for long periods of time, the body’s ability to perform at a sustained intensity drops as the muscles become fatigued. This reduces the joint support that controls normal motion effectively, and can lead to poor form and increased risk of injury.

Built using SKINS’ Dynamic Gradient Compression, K-PROPRIUM helps improve your performance by getting more oxygen to your active muscles and removing waste products from the body faster. But that’s not all. With the addition of the unique PPB’s, that have a similar effect to athletic strapping, the SKINS K-Proprium tights take the benefits of compression one step further by stimulating proprioception.

The strategically placed bands are embedded in the long tights and wrap the body’s prime movers – the lower body muscle groups used most for running, jumping and rotating – giving them the support they need to stay activated and able to control motion for longer periods of time. This helps to delay the rate of fatigue so you’re able to work for longer at a higher intensity. In addition, an ergonomically shaped waistband provides additional lower back stability and core support.

A precision fit based on 3D body scanning data maximises the compression benefits, while 360-degree reflective logos ensure visibility during low light activity. Constructed using a combination of 5 technical fabrics with 50+ UV sun protection, moisture management wicking and ADAPTIVE Technology to optimise body temperature, SKINS K-PROPRIUM long tights are a practical, durable and comfortable piece of equipment for men and women that want to take their performance to the next level.

By merging the benefits of compression with enhanced proprioception, K-PROPRIUM is the ultimate long tight for endurance training and high load, high intensity workouts.
