Look Ma, no knee pain

By Ranked #392 - Men's Performance Tights January 12, 2009

I injured both my knees recently, one worse than the other, but while they felt fine during daily activities, running would aggravate the inflammation and could get pretty painful at times. running with a brace or wrap was disappointingly ineffective, as they always seemed to slide or loosen. rather than stop running and rest like a good boy, I bit on the advertising hook and dropped a couple dimes on a pair of these. I don't know if the company says they'll help you run on an injured knee, and I'm not gonna suggest it either (go see a doctor like a responsible adult), but I can say that I have run in these 3 times since I bought them and my knee pain has dropped to practically nil. 2 weeks ago, 3 miles hobbled me, and I would have to shuffle around the house like a 90 year old man. first day I put these on, 3 miles didn't phase me. I can't say they'll fit everyone's needs, but for me, they are well worth the high price.
