Many folks here at Fleet Feet have been wearing CW-X for years.  We truly believe it is the best performing tight on the market for use during your runs.  Basically, the tights contain a support web technology that mimics kinesiology taping.  This helps to stabilize major muscle groups in your legs and core, provide compression to reduce fatigue, and improve efficiency by minimizing extraneous tissue movement.  

Many runners experience issues in the IT band and knees.   These tights are TIGHT and wrap around the knees perfectly.  When you put them on you definitely feel the compression, too.  And even though they are TIGHT – it feels tight in a good way.   (They also make you look skinnier -think Spanx!- which is always a plus).

Bottom line: they increase stability and balance, provide better shock resistance for the joints, and increase circulation so you can run longer.  They aren’t cheap but they’ll last forever if you treat them right (wash gentle, hang dry) and are regarded as a more permanent option to using kinesiology tape.
