How Skins Work - Science
BioAcceleration
Skins performance equipment has been designed to wrap around the key muscle groups to reduce muscle movement and focus the direction of the muscle. The wrapping effect and compression also dramatically reduce muscle vibration resulting in less soft tissue damage and muscle soreness. The combination of muscle wrapping with BioAcceleration Technology act to marked reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and accelerate recovery times.
Skins - Dry
Moisture management is built into the Skins smart-fabric to keep you dry. The smart-fabric draws moisture away from your skin (wicking) to the surface where it evaporates and helps to naturally cool the body.
Skins - Temp
Skins smart-fabric works to optimise your body temperature in both warm and cool conditions. The fabric warms your muscles quickly. When warm, the wicking properties and large surface area promotes evaporative cooling (the principle cooling mechanism of the body). This maintains body temperature more constantly, which helps your body to perform better for longer.
Skins - Fresh
Skins smart-fabric is embedded with antibacterial and antimicrobial treatment that act to discourage the growth of bacteria. This helps to prevent the odour normally associated with Lycra wear.
Skins - UV Block
Skins smart-fabric is designed to offer SPF 50+ protection from the sun. This means that you can enjoy outdoor exercise and activities without the concern of sun-related risks.
