No one will find it surprising that what an athlete wears can play a big role in how he or she performs; so imagine just what the Nike Power Speed Tight will be able to do for runners and sprinters alike. Inspired by top sprinter English Gardner, the design focuses on the linear motion of running and the muscles it engages. She says, “I have to have my tights. Tights help keep you stabilized, [and yet] give you enough free flow of movement to have the power.”
What makes the Nike Power Speed Tight even more impressive is its aesthetic. Just looking at the compression lines shows its purpose in a stylish way. They run along the hip, thigh, calf and Achilles tendon to provide more support. It will be appreciate by both elite and everyday runners.
