X-Bionic Effektor XBS Competition

The products of the Swiss home X-Bionic does not cease to surprise by the array of technologies presented by the manufacturer. In fact, in just a dozen years X-Bionic has been known position in the market with its own identity, to develop and apply high technology to a textile product. We have this time, the X-Bionic xbs.competition tights, long compression socks that belong to her Effektor collection that are designed for racing.

When one of these tights sets, you might take a while, do not do well if we hurry. Basically for two reasons: first, because being a compression sock especially the part going down hill is not too elastic. And second, because once set, it has a very specific position for each party to perform its function. Obviously that over time will improve our ability, but you still have to devote a few long seconds.

Once set, the setting is perfect, with no wrinkles, with a different compression in different parts. We especially like ankle support (X-Cross Bandage technology-a cross with elastic materials for extra support and protection of the ankle). In comparison with other models of the same house, these X-Bionic Effektor xbs.competition are "more" compressive and have a differential point, but by no means have the feeling of "tightening" routinely transmit compressive garments. They are really comfortable and feel is very nice, things to be grateful when we are running. Technologies involving the bottom: (Lambertz-Nicholson Achilles Tendon Protector, Toe Protector, Instep Protector) Achilles heel protector, toes and instep protection, provide an outstanding level of protection for these tights and a point of comfort. The most noticeable when we run is the protector of the instep. These extra millimeters surprised by its functionality and comfort.

X-Bionic incorporates three technologies (AirCool Stripes, Traverse AirFlow Channel system, Air-Conditing Channel) to achieve these tights maintain the ideal temperature of the foot dry while (and we are talking of a tights).
In practice we have are tights which have the ability to keep your feet dry and always the same comfort temperature. That translates into more comfort for the rider and ultimately in higher performance.

In conclusion, from our point of view the X-Bionic Effektor xbs.competition are a weapon of competition recommended for short distances (up to half marathon). Compression level, may not be suitable for everyday use and for all distances, is probably overkill if you are not accustomed to this type of clothing.
