2XU: running and compression apparel

Born from the world of Australian triathlon, 2XU ("two times you") has become a benchmark in technical and compression apparel. At Boréal Running, discover the full men's and women's range: tights, tops, shorts, sleeves and jackets built to support the muscles, wick sweat and speed up recovery.

What is compression for?

2XU compression garments apply graduated pressure to the muscles. During effort, this helps reduce muscle vibration and support circulation; after effort, compression aids venous return and may speed recovery. A valued asset on long distances and during rest alike.

The 2XU range

Compression tights and pants

The brand's core: tights that support the quads and calves, in lightweight versions for summer and thermal versions for the Quebec winter.

Tops, tanks and t-shirts

Fitted technical tops that wick sweat, from light t-shirts to thermal base layers.

Shorts, jackets and sports bras

2-in-1 shorts, windproof jackets and sports bras complete a cohesive performance kit.

Compression sleeves

Calf and arm sleeves to wear during effort or recovery, especially useful on long distances and after demanding races.

Choosing your 2XU size

Compression must be snug to work: 2XU therefore fits tight, which is normal and intended. Refer to the brand's size guide (often based on height and weight) and feel free to come by the store to confirm the fit.

Frequently asked questions

What are 2XU compression garments for?
They apply graduated pressure to the muscles. During effort, this helps limit muscle vibration and support circulation; in recovery, compression aids venous return and may reduce that heavy-leg feeling.
How does 2XU apparel fit?
Tight, and that's intended: compression only works if the garment is snug. Use 2XU's size guide, often based on height and weight, rather than your usual t-shirt size.
Does compression really help recovery?
Many athletes report lighter-feeling legs and easier recovery. Effects vary from person to person, but wearing it in recovery (after a long run or while travelling) is the most recognized use.
Can I wear compression tights in winter?
Yes. 2XU offers thermal tights that combine compression and insulation — perfect for staying warm on cold runs. Layer a short or outer layer on top if needed.
What's the difference between a calf sleeve and tights?
A sleeve targets only the calves and is worn independently, handy in recovery or alongside a short. Tights cover the whole leg for more complete support.
Does 2XU make women's apparel?
Yes. The women's range covers tights, tops, tanks, shorts and sports bras, with the same compression and moisture-wicking technologies.
