Turn up the intensity on your training with the adidas TECHFIT™ PowerWEB Short. TECHFIT™ PowerWEB is adidas’ top level TECHFIT™ product. It improves body stability and posture, while reducing muscle vibration though high compression. In addition, strategically placed Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) power bands work to store and convert the energy of an athlete’s movement, which would normally be lost, into increased speed and power. Banding and compression improves body posture and reduces muscle vibration. Enhances efficiency and reduces energy loss. Converts athlete’s energy into increased speed and power. TECHFIT™ PowerWEB has been proven to increase sprint speed, jump height, power generation and running economy. Research* results:1.1% faster (30m sprint), 5.3% increased power (maximum repetitive jump output), 4% higher (max jump height), 0.8% more efficient (improved running economy). *adidas TECHFIT™ PowerWEB compared to conventional sportswear. Proven by research of the University of Calgary - Human Performance Lab and adidas Global Research. ClimaCool® construction works to repel heat and sweat with the aid of ventilation channels and 3D fabrics that allow cool air to constantly flow in and out while moisture-dissipating material wicks sweat away from the skin. Venting in heat zones is designed for optimal functionality when worn with ClimaCool® outer garments. 75% polyester/25% spandex. 11" inseam. Imported.

Although it seems fine but the wordings of the adidas logo came of pretty fast although i took care of it really well. The first pair still has the logo intact since I bought it 1.5years ago, but the recent 2 pairs which I've bought had quality issues. Since I do not stay in US, but in Singapore, i am unable to send it back for an exchange.
Pros: good moisture wicking, breathable

Terrible quality and fit. My son wears a men’s large. He is fit and tall. These had such extra fabric, the fit was all wrong! also the stitching on the waist band was ALL pulling apart. I don’t know how it even got passed QC!! Ridicules that now I have to pay to ship it back! This is all hype—and no quality!

Actually do what they say they will, or at the very least they feel like they do anyway. If you've ever worn a wetsuit you'll be familiar with the way your limbs kind of want to conform with the shape of the mould, these have a similar sensation, when you bend down in a jump type of action, you can feel the tension through the back of the skins and they feel like they want to snap you back into an upright position. I like them anyway and would not hesitate to purchase another pair
Pros: high performance, lightweight, comfortable, good moisture wicking, breathable

These are the best compresion shorts that are out there on the market. They are worth every cent. Ordered one size bigger than what I usually wear and even so they feel quite tight, but in a good way. Thats how a compresion product should feel.
My only problem is that the powerweb bands are not too breathable and if I would a have an intensive training sesion, or it is just too hot they can get a bit uncomfortable. But it is not a serious problem.
Would recomend them to anyone !
Pros: high performance, lightweight, comfortable, breathable, they look good

The size chart recommended XL for my waist size. The waist was too large, and the elastic would not accommodate (not enough streatch). The buttocks fit fine and the fit in the thighs was adequate.
Cons: uncomfortable, fit

I purchased this for my son. He hasn't had the chance to use it yet because I had to send it back for a medium. He had a hard time putting it on and once he got it on he said it was very uncomfortable. I tought he would for sure fit in a small since he is very slender and tall (5' 9" and 125 lbs. He wears a 29 pant size .I had to send it back to get a medium. I will have to rate it when he gets the new size.

I play a lot of soccer, and this Adidas techfit powerweb is great it lets you stay dry cool and your muscles are well protected.. I would recommend anyone to buy it. You'll need to get 1 size up.. The only bad thing is that no lot of colors are available, as I said I play a lot of soccer with different teams so I need different colors to match my uniforms..
Pros: high performance, lightweight, durable, comfortable, good moisture wicking, breathable
