Youth compression half shorts for kids who want a shorter, low-bulk sport layer. The half-short length works well under uniforms and training shorts, especially for footy, athletics, soccer and everyday active wear.

Made from lightweight nylon and elastane, they are designed to move with junior athletes while helping manage sweat and provide UV 50+ coverage. The unisex fit keeps the focus on comfort, movement and getting the size right.

Check the size guide before ordering and choose the size that sits flat at the waist without riding up or feeling restrictive.

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.

The BEST!
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!

I do running in these tights and they are so comfy and the perfect material. They never slip and are a great size. I’ll definitely be purchasing another pair from this great local brand!

Comfiest compression leggings ever! Super light as well which makes them great for training but also keeps you warm enough in Winter. Quality/10 They don’t slip throughout the day either which I appreciate Would recommend to anyone
