Benefits & Features
Recovery is an important part of any fitness routine. A speedy recovery means you feel great after exercise and can work out more often with better results.
Research has taught us that compression needs in a relaxed state of recovery are different to when muscles are active. With this in mind, SKINS created the RY400 range.
Forget massages, long baths and shockingly cold ice packs. To improve recovery time, simply pull on your RY400 long sleeve top after activity. It's scientifically proven to help the body recover better – reducing tenderness and delayed onset muscle soreness by delivering more oxygen to your resting muscles.
We recommend you wear your RY400 long sleeve top for at least 3 hours to get the best results. Our 400 fit guarantees maximum comfort, so you can even wear it while you sleep to speed up your body's natural recovery process.
Love my skins!
Love the silky feel but so compressive in the best way
Find the shorter sleeves more comfortable.
I have been wearing for about 2-3 years and it's what gave me relief from a labrum and scapula injury. I would highly recommend this to anyone, it's not as tight as the exercise compression garments which some people might like.
Great shirt to help with managing lymphoedema in right arm, armpit and chest.
Love them, they are the best for me as I've had all my lymph nodes in one arm removed. Helps with fluid drainage from my arm. My only wish is that there is other colours to choose from. The black shirt attracts the heat while I'm playing tennis. Thanks for good night sleeps, I was not sleeping well prior to wearing these shirts.
Thanks
Please consider making other colours.

I have had a couple of these, both S and XS. XS fit me best- I'm 5'3" 123#, short-waisted with swimmer's lats, etc. Some stitching came out on one, so I mended it. I think these don't compress quite as much as a 2XU top I have -- they are lighter fabric -- and they stretch out faster. Still, they work well and I like having V-necks and I'm more likely to wear these to sleep in vs the 2XU top. Both tops have been great for helping me recover faster. I wear them on big days - 2x/week or more.
Excellent compression and as described. It also helps the posture as I tend to slouch when I am tired. I have dermatitis so I would wear them after a shower.
After doing an intense upper body workout today I decided to buy the long sleeved shirt as I already own compression tights. Fit was comfy, obviously tight. I had a nap with it for like 2 hours and I woke up feeling great. Considering I was unable to lift my arms above my head after my gym session. I felt great.
Compression Benefits
Engineered Gradient Compression for Passive Recovery
Gradient Compression has been engineered to provide the correct level of surface pressure to enhance circulation and increase oxygen delivery – improving your recovery after sport
Functional Design
400 Fit
3D body scan data and 400 key fitting points have been used to create a more precise and comfortable fit to maximise compression benefits.
Muscle Focus
Biomechanically positioned panels and seams support and stabilise the muscles to reduce fatigue and risk of injury.
A-Seams
Ultimate comfort is delivered through flexible, flatter A-Seams. It's sleek construction, specially developed for technical athletic wear, means the A-Seam sits flat against your body to eliminate chafing and they're 30% stronger than a standard stich making your SKINS super tough.
Fabric Technology
Odour
Permanent antimicrobial treatment discourages bacteria by ionically absorbing the odour causing substances normally associated with Lycra wear. These features are built into all our fabrics, so they can’t ever be washed out.
50+ UV Protection
SKINS proven 50+ UV protection.
Memory MX
Memory MX Fabric has a superior high-stretch yarn that doesn’t change shape or sag, so you maintain consistent compression, session after session. A400 Long Tights have 70D Memory MX over the knee and Achilles tendon for unrestricted natural movement, and 210D Memory MX over the ITB and TFL muscle groups to help reduce the risk of injury.
Warp Knit
SKINS compression fabric is made from a warp knitted mix of yarns that give you a carefully calculated level of stretch for controlled compression and durability.
GLIDER
GLIDER Technology reduces friction against your skin and clothes, ensuring freedom of movement without chafing.
Moisture Management
Moisture wicking fabric draws sweat away from the body to the surface of the garment where it evaporates to keep you dry.
