Yes I adviced my friend travelling to shows to use them on the flights to and from. Post-show ankle edema can be brutal especially with a flight. I got them mostly to prevent shin scraping on deadlifts  :D

Did you know that Spanx (the compression undergarments for women) has a men's line?

"See an improvement in your physique without even hitting the gym with SPANX men’s shapewear.  We use compression technology to help you look sharper, stand taller, and feel stronger in your clothes… without making you feel constrained. Our men’s girdles fit just like your favorite pair of cotton underwear. But unlike your lucky undies, they take inches off your gut. Or, try one of our game-changing men’s slimming undershirts and see an instant transformation in your torso and chest. Discover men’s body shapers from SPANX."

Who knew that happiness could be found in a girdle?

The woman who created Spanx is a billionaire.  She has made her fortune preying on the vanity and insecurity of millions of women... only to discover that men are just as vain and insecure!  The cost of this compression undergarment is $78.  :o  You can't make this stuff up.

True, never experienced this until I started flying back and forth to Hawaii,  calves swollen, I thought I was sick. Never knew flights can have that effect.

That shit is fucking stupid as well as tights,tapered leg sweats,finger toe shoes and knee high socks oh and flat brim hats.

It's hard to even find baggy sweat pants now. :-\

People in general are bigger and fatter yet cloths are tighter and often "slim fit". ::)

Yes, no more Platinum Everywear!

Strydoms Crazee Wear still has old school baggies but they don't deliver them to my location.

Are these gym-ware, street-ware, or just plain old under-ware for colder climates?

Thanks, RATHER, but I assume that they are worn by many others within the sporting world as well as elsewhere.

I just orderrd a pair from Amazon and plan to give them a try on the slopes of Mt. Charleston.

But I don't think that they will be any warmer than the old silk long-johns that have provided comfort since the winter of 2011.
