Sportchek Compression Vest

[bugsy_toronto]

Hi Everyone,

Can anyone provide me with a specific model of compression vest from Sportchek I should be purchasing? I tried the website today, but was unable to find any products.

Kindly advise.

You can get a Nike Pro Compression or an UnderArmour Compression top.  They come in long sleeve, short and sleeveless styles.  They will fit like a second skin so do not buy a bigger size.  Find a normal fitting T-shirt that you like (not a Metrosexual one or a Long Tee XXXL) and buy that size in the compression top.
If you can actually go and try on the top it would be even better but if you don't have the means then refer to my T-shirt tip above.

Thanks Kingcobra. I will go visit Niketown tommorow and pick one up.

Do I wear this against my skin? Or above the tensor wrap?

[KingCobra]

Most definitely on your skin bro.  The tensor wrap the hospital provides is horrible.  Itches the skin like nobody's business.

I think I'm gonna end up getting one of those vests too, instead of an underworks, and just wear the tensor wrap over it; as it's also something I could wear anytime, not just for a post op.

I bought the Nike Pro Compression shirt for 80$ and did not end up using it at all...
Was a waste of money for me, but so was the Dale binder...
Everyone has their own preferences.
