Fit

This is a compressive training fit. Choose your normal waist size for a locked-in feel. If you are between sizes, prefer less compression, or plan to wear them casually, size up.

FAQ

How should it fit?
Snug and locked in through the hips and thighs, but not restrictive. You should be able to hit full depth without the fabric fighting your setup. If it feels like it's cutting off circulation, size up.

What if I'm between sizes?
Size up. Compression gear should feel secure, not distracting.

What's it made of?
89% premium nylon, 11% elastane. Durable structure from the nylon, stretch and snap-back from the elastane.

Can I squat and deadlift in it?
Yes. Built for squats, pulls, conditioning, warmups, and repeated training.

Will the waistband roll down?
No. The wide-band waistband is designed to hold position through the hinge, the pull, and the reset.

Does it have pockets?
Yes. Low-profile side pockets on both sides for secure, minimal-bounce storage between sets.

Can I wear it under training shorts?
Yes. The shorts work well under training shorts or on their own depending on your preference.

Is it see-through?
The fabric is a substantial black compression blend designed for training coverage. Choose the size that gives you compression without over-stretching the fabric.

Can I wear them outside the gym?
You can, but they're built for training. The compression fit is intentional. If you want them for casual wear, size up.

Will the compression loosen over time?
The 89/11 blend is chosen for durability and snap-back. Wash cold and hang dry to protect the elastane.

How do I wash them?
Machine wash cold. Hang dry or tumble dry low. No bleach, no high heat.

Shorts or pants?
Shorts if you want compression through the hips and thighs without full-leg coverage — better for warmer sessions or layering under shorts. Pants if you want full-leg compression or more coverage in a cold gym.

Is this for recovery or injury prevention?
No medical claims here. Antifragile is training gear: localized compression, four-way stretch, and a secure fit for work under the bar.
