Technology for Performance
Since 2002, SKINS in Australia has further developed the basic principle of compression while taking into consideration the specific requirements for sport. By offering three cycle ranges and the worldwide first compression cycle jersey, we reaffirm our claim to be the leading innovator in compression wear.
SKINS‘ three ranges “compression”, “elite” and “pro” provide suitable functional apparel for each level of performance or type of use, whether racing or mountain bike, touring or cycle marathon. This is the first time that the principle of gradient compression has been adapted for cycle tops. All tops, baselayers or cycle tights with integrated compression are marked accordingly in this product catalogue. Furthermore, the range also comprises of cycle wear without compression and offers practical additions and complimentary components, such as wind vests, arm warmers and leg warmers.
Arguably, no other sporting activity puts as many physical demands on an athlete as a triathlon. Our triathlon suits make an impressive statement in terms of both function and style.
A number of professional cyclists and triathletes already benefit from the technical performance advantages associated with SKINS compression wear. Among others, we are official suppliers to the UCI-Pro-Tour-Teams; Milram, Rabobank and Columbia HTC and worldwide official partner of the Dextro Energy Triathlon – ITU World Championship Series.

Superb comfort for beginners and serious athletes
The “pro” range is specifically targetted at the requirements of the beginner as well as the athlete looking for something a little special. The wider area of the ergonomically shaped chamois provides additional comfort. The tops are intentionally designed without compression, but can be combined with the compression baselayer, arm and leg warmers from the accessories range. A full zipper with zip-port, back pocket, reflection elements for 3-D visibility and 50+ UV protection are all convincing features. The SKINS jersey has an integrated side pocket with zipper for safely carrying mp3 player, keys or mobile phone.

high tech for ambitious cyclists
For the ambitious sports person with a more flexible approach to compression, the “elite” range is perfect. The tops without BioAcceleration Technology™ are made from a light weight fabric and feature aerodynamic styling and practical details. If required, the tops can be combined with the compression baselayer. To ensure optimum breathability of this two layer system, the mesh venting panels of the baselayer have been perfectly synchronised with those of the Elite top. The light materials
used for the figure hugging garments offer maximum comfort and temperature regulation. The chamois of the Elite bib shorts are taped in strategic zones to avoid chafing of the skin. The finest quality foams in different densities optimise the weight distribution on the saddle. Additionally, the material in the front and inner leg area offers an anti-pilling effect and is particularly durable.

Compression for professionals and ambitious amateurs
All tops in the “compression” range combine the special requirements of ergonomy and aerodynamics, all for the first time with gradient compression. The construction and cut of the garments are aligned to the typical seat position of the upper body leaning forward. Motion panels and mesh inserts guarantee unrestricted freedom of movement without any impact on the compression effect. This increases body awareness and can have a positive influence on coordination and movement. When combined with the bib shorts from the “elite“ range, the cycle tops provide a complete compression outfit, offering benefits of BioAcceleration Technology™ from top to bottom.

Accessories with practical details
All ranges can be combined with leg and arm warmers, light mesh undergarments, or the wind resistant vest. A comprehensive component system that satisfies not only in terms of colour, but also in its attention to detail. Access vents in the vest allow the athlete to reach through to the pockets of the jersey without being forced to stop. The reflective SKINS branding on leg and arm warmers offer optimum visibility and safety. The zipper on the leg warmer makes getting in and out of them very easy and silicon bands on the thigh seam offer additional grip and adapt to every movement without the warmer sliding. A wide seam on the arm warmers ensures their secure positioning on the upper arm.

top performance in every phase
The one and two piece Tri-Suits from SKINS satisfy the under wetsuit requirements through their ergonomic cut and thin, but very durable material, allowing it to dry extremely quickly. A hydrophobic coating on the front of the garment minimises the water resistance on the fabric surface. The chamois material and construction prevents the chamois from soaking up water like a sponge and provides the cyclist with important protection in the sensitive crotch area. Carbon Stretch panels on the inner leg area prevent chafing points. The lightweight mini chamois which is taped completely into the short, adapts to every step without any irritation. The Carbon Stretch panels on the inner leg area offer benefits even during running. The combination of compression zones and motion panels at the neck and in the spine area prove to be beneficial throughout the swim.

More pressure on the pedals
SKINS cycle wear integrates the proven BioAcceleration Technology™ which allows for improved performance on the bike. The patented SKINS materials are manufactured according to exact specifications. The structure of our warp knitted fabrics applies exactly the right amount of engineered gradient compression to the muscles, provides cyclists with improved circulation and increased blood oxygen supply. By using high denier superior yarns, as well as applying rigorous torture tests, we are able to offer a product which provides real results.
SKINS chamois with multi elastic interface technology are designed and engineered in Italy. A panel of experts put them through intensive wear testing in a purpose built facility as well as on the road to ensure they provide the ultimate in comfort, performance and durability.
They are manufactured using the best fabrics and the finest quality foams available. The built-in patented Elastic Interface Technology guarantees maximum comfort, freedom of movement on the saddle, protection for sensitive areas, optimum breathability and moisture management.
evaluation of individual sizes
In order to obtain optimised compression, SKINS has to fit like a second skin. Therefore it is necessary to base the size choices for all compression products on a Body Mass Index (BMI) algorithm.
For all products without compression apply your usual clothing sizing.
Fact: All SKINS products are machine washable. Only wash in cold water and with a mild detergent as well as using a wash cycle for sensitive garments. Do NOT use a dryer.
