So after coming across these on CF(Formerly CI) as well as seeing a mention of these in CBF's AOC section I decided to order the compression shorts from 010gear.com they arrived in decent time although I wasn't happy about the fact that they did not provide a tracking # (for those who have dealt with me will know I am really anal about tracking #, i need to know where it is and when etc, I have lost plenty of parcels so when I am not provided a tracking # it really really irks me, OCD in me) anyways i gave it 2 weeks and then emailed them to which Iain O'Brien replied (well atleast the signature was Iain O'Brien, director 010....) stating they should be there shortly.
They arrived a few days later and i got to use these last saturday, So first up looks decent, i kinda like the purple stitching. White one seems to have a slightly *better compression material than the black one. Pouch inside is not really a pocket that if you put a box in it would stay in, so when I saw that I thought crap this isn't gonna work because its like wearing compression shorts and putting a box in there but i was surpised at actually how comfortable it was and there was no movement/sliding of the box. So it does do what it is supposed so do but just as compression wear it disappoints a little bit. Why? here it goes...
* Skins are my choice for compression wear, white shorts from 010 are similar to skins material but still of slightly thinner/stretchier, black one are almost more stretchy. I am not sure if i am explaining this right but these are almost too comfortable/stretchy to be good compression to/for me....
here are some pics..
