Customer Reviews CW-X Stabilyx Joint Support Compression Tights

All throughout high school I was a three season athlete, now just trying to continue staying in shape in college. I have very bad knees from tearing me both of my ACLs and continual tendinitis; however, these have extreme comfort and have help supported my knees. I'm 6 foot, 165lbs and wear a size medium. They are supposed to be tight for the support to actually work, very comfortable in a medium

I love these tights! I've been wearing CW-X Stabilyx tights in all different lengths for 5 years, and I cannot run in anything but these. They have held up well, even my pair that I have sewn twice on one knee due to falls on trails, etc. I would highly recommend these for anyone that needs that extra support.

These are very stylish and comfortable tights. They are difficult to put on (at least the first few times), but that's due to nice, thick fabric that works as a compression sock all over your legs. And you can be sure that if you bend forward, these tights will not be see-through. However, I would recommend going one size up from your regular size. In addition to being very functional, these tights look great with any running shirt thanks to rainbow color lines.

Best tights I have ever worn! Well worth the price. I do Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. These spats (tights) keep my muscles in place while grappling. The result is I am less sore after my workout and faster recovery time. I also use them for cross training at the gym. They are much better than Under Armour and Nike. Very durable, great investment.

I have been plagued with knee problems and usually wear braces to protect my knees. However, with the CW-X Stabilyx I don't have to wear the unsightly braces when I walk, jog, or spin. This is my second pair. They are durable and attractive. Love them!

I had ordered the CW-X Stabilyx tight for my first marathon and was so pleased that I did!! I highly recommend these tights. They were perfect for the strenuous run and excellent for recovery. I will be sure to wear them on all my marathons and will be ordering the capris as well!

I wear these because I have back problems. I do love them but the waist is tight on me. I am 5'1". They wash and dry so quickly. I do wish waist band was a bit looser.

Got these for riding bikes and hiking for the leg & hip support. They are great! Fit true to size, are good looking and did give me the support I was looking for and of course got them super fast from wonderful Zappos. Thanks.

I first ordered a medium not really seeing a sizing chart. They were too easy to put on according to the reviews. I ordered a small right away and I love them!! I'm returning the mediums and ordering another small. I'm 5'6 , 125 lbs. They are worth the extra time it takes to put them on. I went for a quick run at first and my legs felt energized the whole way. I then went on a 20 miler and my legs felt great in 2 days. I definitely would recommend these tights!

Incredible fit and style. Worth every penny. Have 4 pair of CW-X and these are by far my favorite. Warm and cozy for low temperature runs.

I absolutely love these tights! I have two pairs and also a pair of the 3/4 length. I was skeptical at first. I'm not sure if they actually help or its just in my head but I was training for marathon and everything started hurting after longs runs so I started wearing these and my knee and the rest of my legs didn't bother me anymore. They are tight as other people have suggested but I wear the same size that I do in other tights (such as Nike). I'm 5'7, 135 lbs and wear a small.

Beautiful fit, comfort. Exceptional quality. Great stability. Love this whole line. Have many of these, long, and mid calf.

I purchased the Medium and am 5'6" and 160 pounds. I ran a half marathon in them and found that I did have to stop a few times to pull them up at the crotch area so def go by the size chart. I am very pleased with them but if you need more support for your calves I would go for the latest model CW-X came out with that. Found I didn't get much support for my calves like I needed.

These pants are AMAZING! I've been struggling with knee problems for a long time and these have changed my workouts completely. I can finally run again. They're also very tight so they hold everything in and are not see through at all. In fact they act kind of like Spanx but are comfortable to wear. I feel like a new person in these! I'm 5'4" and have a thicker frame so I was worried about wearing something skin tight, but I think these actually make me look better. Do yourself a favor and get these. They really do put a spring in your step!

After having my second C-section, I really wanted to get back into running...but my belly felt like jelly, which made running rather uncomfortable! I decided to try these because of the core support, and I have been really pleased. They are tight but comfortable. Have worn and washed them about 10 times now, and they are great!

Great running tight! Really does work for those long runs I would normally be tired, but kept on going with these! Only complaint is that I'm not used to having such high waisted pants, but they work so I can deal with that part! I will be running the NYC marathon in these babies! I wish I could afford more!

These are the best compression pants! Great quality and fun design! I started wearing CW-X last summer while training and I will never run another race without them. They feel comfortable and you can really feel the support it gives from your core, hips, knees and calves. I highly recommend these pants and Zappos!

I have a tear in my meniscus, and since I have the needed training to help myself to keep on running without surgery. After much thought I decided to go and look for the best tights to support my knees and I found out that this CW-X was the best in the market to provide what I needed. They make different styles that fit different in order to provide relief and stability to people that have gone beyond the period in which their injury is fresh and in need of physical therapy and close care. This tight has helped me not only keep running, but also do that efficiently, without any pain or discomfort . CW-X is the best brand on the market in terms of fulfilling what the advertise.

They are great, it takes a while to get them on, and my impression is that they are for temperatures below 18C. My knees felt better indeed.

These tights are amazing! Used them for skiing. Without them last year we were icing our knees. This year our legs felt great at the end of the day.

LOVE THESE! Did a 9 mile challenge course with these tights and they did a great job to help stabilize my knees. They did seem to slip down a little as the race progressed, but overall, they were great!

These pants are like magic! I'm training for my first half marathon and strained my left calf. I wear these pants on my long runs and feel like I could run forever. I have no pain or discomfort. They compress in all the right places. They are stylish and true to size. My only complaint is the the price. I'd buy 2 more pair of they were cheaper.

Love these! Great knee support and lower back support! Have bought 3 pair. As always great service from Zappos!
