Review: Just Amazing! - I ordered these compression shorts as I recently returned to football and picked up a groin injury so after speaking to a team mate they recommended I got some shorts to help recovery. I’m 53 so injuries are more common so I did some research and went for McDavid and I’m really happy with them, ok more expensive than other makes but I think you will be impressed! They fit really well I’m a 34/36 waist and the large are spot on and after a few training sessions and matches I don’t really notice that I’ve got them on, no real restrictions in movement and definitely helped me psychologically so don’t mess about with cheaper brands and buy this product as you won’t be disappointed. Lots of reviews about quality of product and they come apart but you need to be aware of putting them on nice and gently as tight fit and they will be fine.
Review: First-class product - These are just what I need as I have had a lot thigh injuries of late. They fully support my hips and thighs and give me added confidence in my Pilates and Yoga classes. I do not need to wear a thigh support to give me the confidence that these give me. Although tight, they are very comfortable and once I've worn them for a short while I don't know I've got them on they are so re-assuring and comfortable.

## Features

- ✅ CROSS COMPRESSION: High-strength breathable fabric mimics taping techniques used by athletic trainers to better support common injuries to the hamstring, gluteal and quadriceps muscle groups. By adding support to the hamstrings, quadriceps and groin, cross compression shorts help you prevent common injuries such as hyperextensions.
- ✅ HDC TECHNOLOGY: Thanks to the hDc moisture management technology our compression shorts achieve a perfect regulation for the wearer feeling cool and dry while performing physical activity. The compression trousers are made from six threads for increased seam strength and comfort.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good
*by L***E on 21 June 2025*

Good overall compression - much better than normal compression shorts as the material is better and due to the stitching pattern. Would have given it 5 other than some of the stitching being weak - very good product if you need additional support when doing gym stuff.
