I am not a powerlifter but I really enjoy a pair of old XO compression shorts that I wear on leg day.

I can't seem to find any these days that are the thin, slick, tight material like these old ones. I bought some newer XO shorts on Amazon but they are not as tight and are "looser" weave.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I am trying to figure out what exactly you're looking for. You mention you can't find any that are thin, but then mention the ones you are finding now aren't as tight. Most compression are meant to be light and breathable. I find that the generic brand stuff tends to be thinner and not as tightly woven. If I want something a little tighter, like you mention, I find I have to look in one of two places. 1. A name brand 2. Go to "biker" shorts. Biker shorts might be what you want.

I use 2XU compression pants that I got from Amazon. They have very good reviews, both the pants and shorts.

My rule of thumb with compression shorts is whatever y0ur size go down one. My favorite were made by bike. Durable. The underarmour I have now is ok
