2XU - Alpine MCS Thermal Compression Top - Men's - AW17
A thermal compression top that offers powerful compression and added warmth in alpine conditions.
The MCS Range:
Labelled the 'next generation in compression', 2XU's MCS apparel range boasts the very latest in compression technology with each product specifically developed for a particular sport. MCS stands for 'Muscle Containment Stamping', technology that supports key muscles and reduces the stress of repetitive impact.
2XU have taken into account the muscle groups that each activity uses and designed garments that provide precisely targeted compression to these particular muscles, fascia and joints.
The Product:
2XU's Alpine MCS Thermal Compression Top is part of the Alpine Range, designed to offer targeted support to the muscles that are needed to power you up and down the slopes. 2XU's premium PWX compression fabric has been specifically engineered to offer unparalleled power, weight and flexibility in accordance to the needs of the wearer, as well as added warmth in cold weather.
Skiing requires a complex series of interactions between your upper and lower body muscles. This thermal top utilises anatomical mapping to ensure targeted support to the necessary muscles, helping to reduce muscles soreness and aid and improve your recovery. 2XU's MCS mapping is targeted at the key upper body muscles that are used for balance, stabilisation and endurance:
- Core mapping - targeted support to abdominals, obliques and lower back to activate muscles help maintain posture awareness for balance. Provides support to help work with/against the power from rotation and centrifugal gravity developed from downhill skiing.
The PWX material used in this top offers a high power denier of support to the key muscles and joints. The graduated compressive fit increases blood flow and contains your upper body muscles to help enhance your performance. The moisture-wicking material will also help keep you dry, whilst its antibacterial properties will prevent the build up of odour-causing bacteria.
Key Features:
- HIGH QUALITY MATERIALS - 2XU's compression fabrics have been used to help support the key muscles. Made with high quality LYCRA, the top contains high grade elastomeric yarns and a circular knit structure to allow for excellent stretch and flexibility.
- COMPRESSION - a graduated fit promotes circulation of the blood in your upper body for enhanced muscle performance and a faster warm up and recovery.
- MCS MAPPING - targeted compression to the abdominals, obliques and lower back, helps to prevent strain and muscle soreness.
- WARM - PWX Flex Thermal 70D fabric adds warmth when needed.
- DRY - the high filament material wicks sweat away quickly from the top's exterior. A high neckline also helps to keep you dry.
- ANTIBACTERIAL - the top's antibacterial qualities prevent the bacteria build up that leads to bad odour.
- SUN PROTECTION - 2XU's fabric offers UPF50+ sun protection.
