Compression clothing

Compression clothing is a type of clothing sometimes worn by athletes. As the name suggests, it is skin tight and compresses the body. It is claimed to have various advantages in improving performance, such as improving blood circulation and decreasing recovery times, although these benefits are disputed. Types of compression clothing range from socks to Capri pants and tops.

Because it is tight, and often smooth and shiny, Fetishists may wear such clothing to get a feel of a second skin.
