2XU - MCS Run Compression Short - Men's

High-tech running shorts with MCS compression mapping that targets the key thigh muscles to reduce soreness and fatigue.

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 MCS Run Compression Shorts are some of the most advanced compression shorts on the market, targeted at endurance running. 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.

The shorts are designed to support your leg muscles as they undergo the repetitive movements of endurance running. 2XU's MCS technology targets the thighs and quadriceps; mapping compression to reduce the impact felt by the knee. MCS mapping aids in knee joint biofeedback, reducing excessive knee joint wear and tear. Extra support is given to the quad muscle fibres to help reduce muscle strain and fatigue.

The PWX material used in these shorts offers a high power denier of support to the key leg muscles. The graduated compressive fit increases blood flow and contains your leg muscles to help enhance your performance.

The shorts are designed with a power comfort wide waistband that allows for extended hours of wear without uncomfortable chafing or red marks. The moisture-wicking material will also help keep you dry, whilst its antibacterial properties will prevent the build up of odour-causing bacteria.
