2XU - Official compression garment partner

It's about performance

2XU Compression is the new standard in high performance compression wear. Stop making compromises with second rate products that use fashion fabric and pass it off as ‘performance’ with big marketing words.

If you’re serious about getting the best compression performance on the market then make the leap to 2XU.

We consulted National Sporting Organisations and elite athletes to determine technical requirements. We talked to sport persons from multiple disciplines and asked ‘What do you want in a compression garment?’

Athletics International

Athletics International, a group of Australian representative athletes, has joined forces with Athletics Australia’s High Performance Youth Development team to support a mentoring program for the Under 19 Talent Squad. The program enables each athlete to be mentored by an appropriate former athlete in their state and from a similar discipline where this is possible. The mentors and mentees are introduced and come together at biannual camps where they are supported in the journey by personal development sessions. The mentoring program has been designed by Athletics Australia and Athletics International to assist these most talented athletes to take the step to senior international competition.
