Compression Pants (specifically over the knee)

Any recommendations for a compression pant/knee cover (that won't slip when skiing)? I'm getting older and trying to keep the knees as warm/loose as possible. Just something I can wear under my ski pants, doesn't need any padding, good blood flow around the knees.

Thx NS!

don't know if it's what you're looking for, but if you go to eastbay.com, they have compression tights. I wear those for football and they keep me warm without restricting movement

CWXs are cool and come with a 3/4 length. The insulated ones are too hot for skiing though so don't get those.


The only thing that sucks about them is the belt- or lack thereof. Mine are getting rolled over a belt and sewn in for this season, otherwise they fall down or become uncomfortable from the dinky string they give you.

have a look at skins

http://www.skins.net/usa/

they have some really good stuff. ranging from snow sport specific, to warm weather and even recovery ones to wear after sports.

they come in a full length or a 3/4 version so that way they don't mess around with the cuff of your boot.
