Really like MCS 2XU line. Had been using shorts, kickers, and tights of this line for almost a decade. They are really good products, offering the right compression at the right parts of my legs. I would say they are long lasting for the tight shorts. I think the pockets of this model are not well sized, but it's not a problem to me because I don't wear them.

I recent bought 3 pairs of 2xu compression shorts for gym use. Rebel used to stock Skins but don’t anymore though these are a good substitute and good quality.They are a bit pricey though at around $80 a pair….price varies with colour too. They only come in 3 colours as well…black, blue and light brown.

Overall I am very happy with the purchase. The shorts provide just enough compression to offer support but still be comfortable. I opted to size up being one block away from the next size and feel good with that decision although I do wonder how that smaller size might feel. Wish the site had some additional measures, ie waist and/or thigh, besides height and weight as we are all built differently. First run was great and everything seemed to perform as expected. Washed the garment per instructions and got ready for next race. At starting line the zipper broke so just pushed on. Customer support was great and they took care of the issue very quickly. Overall product appears to be well constructed but check that zipper to make sure it is is secure at the fully open ... MoreOverall I am very happy with the purchase.

I love this light running compression short and MCS! I ran 20 miles long run and 10miles tempo with this short, It was well holding my quads and hamstrings, hopefully 2XU can put MCS for hamstrings as well for next version, I definitely want to try it again! I also like the pockets as well on the back to hold more GUs and salt pills for marathon race, normally i carry 6-7 GUs and salt pills respectively for my full marathon race. Definitely I will recommend other runners in the team to try this compression short out! Thanks!
I was looking for a quality compression short while working out. The light speed compression shorts are a great size, leg just above the knee, waist above the hips so abbs support. Plus space for your gear, back pocket for the mobile phone, zip side pocket and on other side an easy to get to pocket. While moving your muscles are supported and all your gear stays in place so you can concentrate on your activity. I have swum in them and they felt great.
The sizing of the current product needs to be reviewed. M is a very tight fit. I would have liked to buy L size.A previous pair of shorts was M and was a very comfortable. I am 80kg, 170 cm - I have shed 3kg in recent time.I acquired my new shorts in March 2022 - the silver pattern on the side of my previous shorts became very sticky
Always a long time 2xu customer, swear by their products, but was pretty disappointed, its definitely not the same high quality stuff of previous generations. Functionality is the same why I gave 4 stars. Sad another great brand goes after profits before quality. Probably buy Skins next time now they are back.
Top quality shorts and great pocket design. But sizing is a little tricky. According to the chart I'm at the upper end of Medium (5'11/195), so I chose a Large for comfort. When trying on I heard some threads snap, I think I could've gone with XL! If you got big thighs and some fat up there, definately size up once or twice maybe? Until I get thinner I'm gonna have to roll down the waist band.
This is my second 2XU running tight I bought, this one slightly heavier as the elastic band at the waist is quite thick as compared to the other models that I bought. Differences is minimal on the first wear but does not effect my running activity.The picture in the website show compartment with slots at the back but mine is zipper. No questions for authenticity as at 2XU official website indeed shows both open slot and the zipper type.Overall, high quality for the 2XU tights and worth my purchase.For runnerinn, high shipping rate and some delay for shipment. Really look forward for low cost shipping and fast shipping for next purchase.
I wear these for most of my workouts, cardio and running. I find the compression really helps keep my legs fresh. Also help with recovery. Since I do a lot of core work and even upper body work that requires stability, I wear these whenever I'm kt doe ifjcally doing leg workouts, as I prefer the Forcd Compression Shorts on Leg days.
