Common questions from parents and athletes
How should compression gear fit?
Compression should feel close and supportive without feeling restrictive. The waistband should sit flat, the fabric should not bunch behind the knees or under shorts, and the wearer should still be able to run, kick, bend and stretch comfortably. If you are between sizes, check the size guide before ordering.
Can this be worn under soccer, footy or training uniforms?
Yes. Real Compression gear is designed as a close-fitting sport layer for training, game day and everyday movement. Shorts work well under uniforms, while full-length tights or base layers add more coverage for cold mornings and winter sport. Always check your club or competition uniform rules if colour matters.
Is it useful for cold-weather sport?
Compression layers add comfortable coverage without bulky fabric, which makes them useful for early starts, cold grounds and winter training. For extra warmth, choose longer tights or base layers and layer them under shorts or team kit.
What if the size is not right?
Use the product size guide first, then try the garment on before removing tags or wearing it for sport. Real Compression offers easy returns for Australian orders; check the current shipping and returns details on the site or contact us if you need help choosing a size.

I recently purchased 2 pairs and they fit perfectly. One of my sons is super skinny and never had skins that fit. He is so happy to finally get a pair that fit and are so comfy. Will definitely purchase again!
