Speedy Tested: Review of the Russell Athletic CoolCore Compression Pants

We are never sure what we will get when we order new items from the wholesaler. Russell Athletics has a good reputation, so we were hopeful, and these Russell Athletic CoolCore Compression Pants (tights) don’t disappoint. We are excited to order more so we can put our designs on them and offer them for sale to you:

Overall Rating ★★★★ (Drip)

Sizes: Adult sizes only (XS through 3XL)

Material: 84% Polyester / 16% Elastane

Price $$$

Without custom designs added (like ours have), you can find these online as low as $22 but the official retail price from Russell Athletics is $35. They wholesale for around $20 depending on volume.

Value: ★★★☆

While these are fairly expensive, the quality fabric, stitching, reinforcement, ventilations behind the knees/crotch, and waist material make it mostly worth the higher price.

Fit: ★★★★

Nice, tight and secure. Stretches where it needs to and holds tight in the right spots. The waist is comfy and the ankles aren’t scratchy or annoying.

Feel: ★★★★

This is exactly how we’d expect performance sportswear to feel. Thick high-quality fabric, good stitching, and soft feel. The quality shines through.
