running technical clothing

We begin to talk about technical clothing for runners, meaning with this definition the garments that a runner should have in his personal wardrobe for the practice of his beloved sporting discipline.

I have always been a runner, even before a shopkeeper, and I am in favor of responsible consumption from all points of view, without waste, so the leaders I will present are just the indispensable ones, ie those that you can not do to less, in the most categorical and absolute way.

A place of primary importance, among the sportswear that must be part of a runner's wardrobe, there are undoubtedly the breathable technical jerseys, meaning with this term all the series of sweaters, of varying heaviness, consistency, length, that are put directly in contact with the skin, the main purpose of removing the perspiration of the superficial layer of the epidermis, bringing it by contact and transport as far as possible to the outer layer of the breathable mesh, leaving the skin as dry as possible.

There are really many versions of it, and there are many manufacturers, but the important thing is that they perform their function properly.

The materials of which they are composed are, in the vast majority of cases, all of synthetic origin, as one of the main characteristics of these materials is the incompatibility with water, being essentially products of petroleum derivatives, and exploiting this condition, thanks to their particular workmanship, they separate themselves from the water, and therefore from the sweat itself.

To best accomplish their function, these garments should be logically brought into contact with the skin, they must therefore be the first garment that is worn, especially when the temperature falls below a certain level (which can vary from person to person) , and must be worn tight, almost like a second skin, to better promote proper perspiration and transport of sweat.

In this first article, the long-sleeved shirt is from the Under Armor company, a prestigious American brand specializing in the production of apparel and undergarments.

It is a product to be worn typically in the cold season, as it is of high consistency and has an excellent degree of compression on the skin, limiting also the muscular oscillation, for a correct energy saving, due to less dispersion.

I've never tried a shirt with compression. I use compression on my legs because I've had a couple of shin splint occations and someone told me that could help.

I confirm that you do very well, but also a compression of a higher level of musculature can be equally valid, soon I will dedicate a post to this specific topic
