Basketball Tights & Leggings Frequently Asked Questions

Research points to several helpful things that compression pants can do for basketball players. Compression tights or leggings hug your muscles, helping to focus and channel their energy. At the same time, they might help reduce muscle strain by keeping the muscles warm and supported. Compression on the knee joint may help prevent injuries by slightly changing the mechanics of how a player jumps and lands. By supporting blood circulation, basketball compression pants also can aid in quicker post-game recovery times.
Basketball compression pants aren’t necessarily the same as thermal pants. Some thermal pants might have compression properties, and some compression pants might help keep you warm. But in general, thermal pants are designed for temperature regulation and compression pants are designed for muscle support. Another difference is in the fabric. Thermal pants or tights often have a waffle-knit pattern, and compression pants are typically smooth.
NBA players who wear compression pants or tights under their uniform often wear three-quarter or full-length versions, but they may also wear compression shorts. The three-quarter length leaves room for socks and shoes while still covering the knee joint. Basketball compression pants may also have padding to protect against abrasion during close contact or falls. The pants are generally made with stretchy, sweat-wicking performance fabric.
